摘要

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Animal Damage Control (ADC) program has received requests in the past, and is currently receiving requests, to conduct wildlife damage management in various countries in ADC's South and San Luis Districts. The Districts are made up of the following 16 countries: Imperial, Kern, Los Angeles, Monterey, Orange, Riverside, San Benito, San Bernardino, San Francisco, San Luis Obispo, San Mateo, Sand Diego, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, and Ventura. Cooperative agreements (active and inactive) are in place on approximately 2,388,457 acres or in about 5.8% of the District's total acreage. During fiscal year 1995, ADC conducted predator damage management activities on 4.3% of the total acreage within these counties. The ADC Program typically does not conduct activities each year or throughout the year on properties under agreement. The purpose of predator damage control activities is to reduce or alleviate damage to livestock, primarily sheep, cattle and poultry, threats to human health and safety and damage to property. This environmental assessment (EA) examined potential impacts of the ADC program as it involves these resource conflicts with predatory animals (coyotes, bobcats, red fox, gray fox, black bear, mountain lion, and feral/free ranging dogs). The ADC program conducts wildlife damage management on localized tracts of private land on a temporary basis, and on Federal and state lands through work plans or cooperative agreements. None of the proposed activities would result in habitat modification. Normally, according to APHIS procedures implementing the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), individual predator damage control actions are categorically excluded (7 C.F.R. 372.5 (c), 60 Fed. Reg. 6,000, 6,003 (1995)). This EA is prepared to evaluate and determine if there may be any potentially significant or cumulative impacts that may occur as a result of ADC activities.
