See <br />Attachment D, Map 37 of the West Elk Mine Permit for locations. <br />SURVEY METHODS <br />Maps and photographs were obtained from the USFS giving current stock pond and tank <br />locations. These items were discussed with Forest Service personnel and were correlated <br />to Table 8 and Map 37 of the current mine plan. Coordinates for each water resource <br />were recorded using a Garmin Etrex GPS unit in July of 2011. The coordinate system <br />was degree, minute, second, 1 /10 second with the WSG 84 datum being utilized. Field <br />surveys were made throughout the summer of 2014. A total of 51 water resources were <br />found and recorded during the 2014 field season. Coordinates displayed for each water <br />resource indicate the location of the photo - point. Each resource was photographed and <br />recorded as to parameters such as high water line, present water line and whether the <br />pond was wet or dry. A sheet protector with a dry erase marker was utilized to identify <br />each pond in the photo. Pond name, direction the photo was taken toward, and date are <br />recorded on the board. Photographs were taken with a Sony Cyber -shot digital camera. <br />Each photo title in this report lists the pond/spring name or number and date the photo <br />was taken. <br />EXAMPLE: P-23,(06-25-13) <br />4 <br />
