15 : Field Investigation - Results A total of 46 ecosite community types identified in the LSA comprised of: 245 species of plants (of which 223 were native species and 22 were exotics) Five species of frogs and toads One salamander species One turtle species One snake species 129 bird species (117 of which are assumed to be breeding in the LSA) 15 species of migrating waterfowl 16 mammal species (including three species of bats) 15
16 : Terrestrial Investigations - Results Terrestrial features and associated functions identified within the PDA and LSA: Protected Areas: Macleod Provincial Park Wetlands, represented by non-psw and previously unevaluated or unidentified wetlands Habitats of Species of Conservation Concern for: Taiga Alpine (ecosite B136) 16
17 : Terrestrial Investigations - Results Habitat and Species Presence for Provincial and Federal SAR: Barn Swallow nesting habitat under bridges and other human structures and buildings Canada Warbler breeding habitat in ecosites: B051, B128 and B198 Common Nighthawk breeding habitat in ecosite: B128 Eastern Wood-pewee breeding habitat in ecosite: B049 Olive-sided Flycatcher breeding habitat in ecosite: B114 Little Brown Myotis and Northern Myotis habitat in deciduous and mixed forests with stand size >25 cm dbh and tree height >10 m. 17
18 : Terrestrial Investigations - Results Habitats for Seasonal Concentrations of Animals Moose late winter cover (ecosites B049, B050, B051, B052, B053, B065, B066, B068, B098, B099, B101, B114, B115 and B117) Waterfowl Stopover and Staging areas (aquatic habitat only) in the combined area of Kenogamisis Lake, and 100 m radius including wetland/shoreline ecosites Turtle wintering areas in Kenogamisis Lake Snake hibernacula assumed to occur throughout the LSA 18
19 : Terrestrial Investigations - Results Rare Vegetation Communities & Specialized Habitats Sparse Treed Fen (ecosite B136) Unique community Taiga Alpine Waterfowl Nesting Areas ecosites B129, B130, B135, B140, B142, B144, B145, and B146 Woodland Raptor Nesting Habitat assumed to occur throughout the LSA Seeps and Springs 19
20 : Next Steps Information gathered during 2013 and 2014 are representative of general area. PDA and LSA terrestrial conditions typical of Boreal Forest Region. Data will be used to inform EA. Land and Resource Use Information request from MNRF 20
