Arivaca Abandoned Mine Lands Safety Closures

The Arivaca Abandoned Mine Lands Safety Closures project aims to remediate physical safety hazards for 60 abandoned mine features within the Arivaca Abandoned Mine Lands (AML) Remediation Project in the Coronado National Forest, Arizona. The project involves conducting biological surveys, assessing bat habitat, and providing closure recommendations for each feature. The contractor will be responsible for implementing the recommended closures, which may include bat-compatible closures, destructive closures, or leaving the feature as is. The project requires a thorough understanding of bat biology, habitat assessment, and closure methods to ensure the protection of bat species and other wildlife. • The project involves assessing 60 abandoned mine features. • The contractor will conduct biological surveys and assess bat habitat. • Closure recommendations will be provided for each feature. • The project requires a thorough understanding of bat biology and habitat assessment. • The contractor will implement the recommended closures.
