Page 13 <br />Photograph 3-2. Approximate location of proposed MW -2 site. <br />The proposed MW -3 site would be located in an Inter -Mountain Basins Big Sagebrush Shrubland <br />vegetation community at an elevation of approximately 7,423 feet. Dominant vegetation consisted of <br />big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentato), galleta grass (Plueraphis jamesii), sweetclover, and cheatgrass. <br />Ground cover varied from 30 to 60 percent. It appeared that the proposed MW -3 site would be located <br />within a fallow pasture on private property that has been heavily disturbed from its natural state. No <br />surface water resources were observed within the proposed project area. Site drainage at the proposed <br />MW -3 site would flow southeast into Schoolhouse Canyon, containing an ephemeral watercourse. <br />Photograph 3-3.
