D. Scenic Values. Describe protection of scenic values such as screening, slash disposal, or timely reclamation. <br />Due to the remote nature of these dig sites and the small scale of operatons, there will be minimal impact on scenic <br />value. This area is minimaly visited by other people. Most use is by recreational rockhounds who are digging for crystals <br />and by ATVs who use the nearby trails and roads. During fall, hunters may be in this area. Visival impact is minimized by <br />restricting the size of the excavations wherever possible and by refilling excavations as quickly as possible. Each dig site <br />will be reclaimed and reseeded in the season it is opened unless substantial mineral potential is discovered. In that case, <br />the site is made safe for off season, all equipment, and anything associated with the operation is removed from site. Old, <br />hand -dug prospects which are in and near our operations will also be filled and reclaimed. Our goal is to protect the <br />scenic values as much as possible and return the land as quickly as possible to suitable wildlife habitat. <br />(If more space is needed to fill out a block of infomteon, use additional sheets and attach form) <br />-5- <br />
