Reptiles and Amphibians. There shall be no removal of native reptiles and amphibians from the Wetlands.
Reptiles and Amphibians. ▪ Low impact methods will be utilized during clearing of riparian habitat to minimize disturbance; ▪ During the reptile and amphibian emergence breeding period (April 1st to August 15th), where required, Voltage will provide qualified personnel to perform the visual encounter surveys; ▪ Discoveries will be reported, and the Voltage Project Environmental Manager will notify and work with Manitoba Hydro Environment team to ensure protective steps are implemented should construction continue; ▪ All reptiles and amphibians will be allowed to passively disperse from roads, ROW, and work areas; and ▪ Erect sedimentation prior to activities occurring in areas of breeding habitat (e.g., wetland features, low-lying ephemeral ponds) to minimize the risk of frogs entering the work area. Fish Habitat Protection The Fish Habitat Protection section of the EMP covers the procedures Voltage will implement to minimize the environmental impacts for Fish and Fish Habitat. Voltage will ensure the proper protections are in place and work is conducted in a manner that complies with The Fisheries Act, 1985. In‐stream works are not anticipated for the Project, although they may be required for temporary stream crossing structures or culverts. As such, there is potential for Project related activities to interact with fish and fish habitat. General best management practices to mitigate effects on fish and fish habitat are outlined below. ▪ Disturbances to wetland/waterbodies will be minimized to every extent possible; ▪ Sedimentation controls will be installed and monitored for effectiveness in areas were sediment has the potential to affect watercourses; ▪ Work may be suspended after heavy rainfall events where ground conditions are saturated and will result in ground disturbance; ▪ Vegetation clearing within the Riparian Area will be avoided where feasible. If clearing is required, it will be conducted by hand or another low impact forestry method; ▪ Equipment will be stored, refueled, and serviced a minimum of 100 m from all wetlands/waterbodies; ▪ Emergency Spill Kits will be on hand when working around wetlands/waterbodies to minimize and clean-up any accidental release of deleterious substances; ▪ Water recovered from dewatering activities or other operations will be discharged away from all wetland/waterbodies; ▪ All surface water ditching that was changed will be re-established during reclamation; ▪ Where water crossings will be installed, methods that allow for continual ...
