      s 14-1545. Wildlife Protection.

      (a) Riparian vegetation found along stream and lakes, and within marshes, 
      wet meadows, and other wet areas shall be retained and protected except 
      when managed as part of a fish and wildlife habitat improvement practice 
      and necessary mitigation measures to minimize damage from these practices 
      have been imposed.

      (b) All snags within the stream and lake protection zone and all live 
      trees and snags with visible evidence of use as nesting and roosting sites 
      by rare, endangered, or threatened bird species shall be left undisturbed. 
      Participants are encouraged to leave all snags undisturbed.

      (c) No practices may be performed on lands designated special treatment 
      areas due to their importance as key habitat for rare and endangered 
      animals or plants unless an environmental evaluation conducted according 
      to 14 CAC 1532.2 indicates that a proposed practice(s) will improve such 
      habitat.

      (d) Participants are encouraged to retain some older acorn producing black 
      oaks, create deer forage lanes in brushfields, and plant other vegetation 
      to promote species diversity and improve wildlife habitat when such 
      practices are not in conflict with program goals.

      (e) If existing vegetation other than riparian is necessary to maintain 
      stream temperatures, such vegetation shall not be removed.

      (f) Domestic water supplies will receive the same review and consideration 
      as that required for special treatment areas.
