The Proposed Action is to implement an integrated approach using a variety of methods to reduce predator damage to agricultural resources, property, human health and safety, and natural resources. The EA analyzes issues and potential environmental effects of the proposal and alternatives. Based on the analysis contained in the EA, WS has decided to implement the Proposed Action as described in the EA and has concluded that it will not have a significant impact on the quality of the human environment. The FONSI and Decision were signed on May 11th, 2021.
