The project area does run across a small wetland and <br /> is near the Three Rivers Park Districts' Baker Park Reserve. Given the <br /> proximity of the project to this important bird area, we recommend that <br /> bird flight diverters be installed on the shield wire of the transmission <br /> line that crosses the wetland from the Proposed Orono Substation to the <br /> BNSF Railroad/US Highway 12 Right of Way. If any maintenance is required <br /> on the existing Xcel Energy Line #0831 ORO-Med we would also recommend that <br /> bird flight diverters be installed on the shield wire of the transmission <br /> line for the portion that crosses Baker Park Reserve. <br />
