.- <br />AUAR ITEM <br />SCOPE• <br />• <br />14 <br />Fish, Wildlife, <br />Kimley-Horn will identify fish and wildlife resources and potential habitat <br />Plant <br />in relation to the cover types identified. Any potential impacts will be <br />Communities <br />addressed in this section. Kimley-Horn will complete a review of the <br />and Sensitive <br />Natural Heritage Information System database. Any identified <br />Ecological <br />threatened, endangered, or species of special concern that may be <br />Resources <br />impacted as a result of the proposed development scenarios will be <br />(Rare <br />described and the findings of the database search will be sent to the <br />Features) <br />MnDNR for concurrence. A concurrence letter will be requested, and this <br />information will be included in this section. <br />15 <br />Historic <br />Kimley- Horn will also coordinate a review with the MN SHPO office of <br />Properties <br />the proposed AUAR study area. Information from MN SHPO will be used <br />for the section. <br />16 <br />Visual <br />Kimley-Horn will review and determine if any scenic views or vistas are <br />present within the AUAR study area and if any impacts may result from <br />the proposed development scenarios.
