| Title: |
Timing restrictions on activity near lek |
| Text: |
Breeding Habitat: Lek Habitat: "The following activities should be restricted as stated from mid-March through late-May (precise dates should be obtained from a local biologist). Any activities that could be categorized as "line of sight" or in direct view of the lek would need to follow more restrictive guidelines than situations where a topographical configuration interrupts the line of sight. Direct line of sight activities should be limited to > 300 feet from the edge of the lek. If topographical features interrupt the line of sight, the aforementioned distance can be reduced to 150 feet. Human activities that would be repetitive (occurring every day, or every other day) could be more detrimental than activities or disturbances that occur sporadically or occur equal to or less than 1 time/week." |
