Re: 



Dear Larry : 



Circle West Project 

 Wildlife survey 



I have reviewed your submittal of 3/1^/78 entitled, 

 " Circle West Wildlife Monitoring Program ". The program 

 should provide the necessary data for the monitoring 

 program. 



The number of flights/month should be adequate, but 

 since the area is very large, it may be necessary to expand 

 this portion of the study depending upon results achieved 

 this year. 



Since waterfowl species such as geese may start nesting 

 earlier than May, it may be wise to plan some waterfowl 

 specific work in April. 



I will attempt to accompany you on a few field trips this 

 year. 



Sincerely , 



/i^'^i ^-
