Because the p~oject site is located in close proximity to nesting apeas of several endangered and/or sensitive species, such as the California least tern, light-footed clapper rail, Betding's savannah sparrow and other ~qetland species, the DepaTtment is concerned that the flagpole could serve as a perch pole For raptors who could prey on chicks and adults of the species mentioned above. We request that anti-perching material, such as Nyxalite, o~ other suitable material, be placed on top of the flagpole to pre~ent predato~s fpom using the pole as a perching site. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project. Sincerely, Fred Worthley ~ ~ ~ Regional Manager ~%~&~ Region 5
