 trenches, excavations, cut and fill activities. Open earthworks
 pose threats to native animal entrapment and should be
 backfilled as soon as possible. In some locations, barriers may
 be required overnight to eliminate the accidental capture of
 animals moving through the site. When trenches are not
 backfilled or machinery left onsite overnight, they are to be
 inspected at the commencement of each day for trapped or
 injured wildlife.
