NECC has established one reference area for this purpose. This area is the <br />rangeland reference area located near the former Golden Eagle Mine located on <br />Colorado Parks and Wildlife lands of the Bosque del Oso State Wildlife Area. <br />Correspondence in Exhibit 15 grants NECC the authorization to enter this area for <br />Section 2.05 RN -6 10/17/2016 <br />
