IP <br />5 <br />lands aboriginally inhabited by the Utes, LSFO has invited representatives of the three federally <br />recognized Ute tribes to visit the sites and provide comments on the possible cultural importance <br />of the sites to the Ute people. <br />Preliminary results of the coal exploration drilling program suggest that the sites could <br />experience direct and indirect effects from proposed mining. One of the wickiup sites could be <br />directly affected by expansion of an open pit coal mine. The other wickiup site could be <br />indirectly affected in that a powerline needing to be rerouted around the pit would then lie within <br />the viewshed of the site. <br />100: B N uze: j s: X5 095: 8/29/2016 <br />BN <br />RIAY16 <br />
