07 – How will disruption to wildlife along the trail be minimized?

Answer

During construction, there would be minimal, if any, filling of wetlands. Sediment barriers would be employed. If the trail were unlighted, disruption of nighttime wildlife use would be minimal. Any fencing must allow wildlife passage. Where appropriate, wildlife passages under the trail may be used. The effects of increased human presence are unknown.
