The Kansas
Ecological Services Field Office provides biological advice to other
federal and state agencies, industry, and members of the public
concerning the conservation of fish and wildlife and their habitat that
may be affected by development activities. Personnel assess the
potential effects of projects to migratory birds, endangered species,
anadromous fish, and wildlife. In Kansas,
these projects typically include activities such as
agriculture, mining, utility lines, dredge and fill
activities, dam and reservoir operations, oil leasing, and highway
construction.
The effects of
contaminants on fish and wildlife are also assessed. Recommendations
are then made regarding ways to avoid, minimize, or compensate for
harmful impacts on fish and wildlife resources and their habitats. The
primary areas of responsibility for the Kansas
Ecological Services Field Office include,
contaminant assessments, endangered species, Federal project reviews,
and wetlands conservation. |
