When members of the officials at the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service stand to profit from a contractor?
Sand skinks have turned up in eight Lake
County projects
Sand skinks inhabit the Lake Wales Ridge,
which stretches from Polk and Highland counties into south Lake, as well as the
Mount Dora Ridge, a section of high sandy soils in northern Lake and Marion.
According to a state report, it's
estimated that 90 percent of the sand skink habitat has been lost to
development or was converted into citrus groves.
Officials at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service are reviewing the company's proposal and are allowing public comment on
it through April 23. People can email for more information and to offer
comments at northflorida@fws.gov, using "Attn: permit number
TE65123A-0" in the message subject line.
