J. Describe and locate any structures to be constructed (i.e. stockpiles, ponds, <br /> impoundments): <br /> No structures are planned to be constructed. <br /> K. Describe anticipated relationship to surface water and groundwater (proximity to <br /> streams, penetration of ground water aquifers): <br /> Prospecting will be conducted in a manner to minimize soil erosion. Equipment will not be <br /> ope,ated when ground coi iditivis ai e such that *L11ce darnage or increased <br /> sediment transport will occur. Sediment control measures may include, but not be limited to, <br /> a nc, certified weed-tree straw bales, filter tences, filter berms, mud sumps, and down-gradient <br /> drainage channels to prevent degredation to the environment. Groundwater is estimated to be 100 <br /> feet below the surface and will be managed with appropriate drill hole sealants if encountered. <br /> IV. OPERATION AND RECLAMATION MEASURES: <br /> 1. The Board suggests that a photographic record of the pre-prospecting and <br /> post-prospecting conditions be kept by the prospector. These photos should be taken <br /> from the sa e location and by the same method to clearly show th pre-prospecting <br /> condition of to land and the reclamation efforts. Upon completion Tf reclamation and <br /> request for bond or surety release, the Board may consider the photos as evidence of <br /> adequate reclamation, and thus,be able to act more quickly on the request for release. <br /> 2. Provide a description of the native vegetation of the area to be disturbed, including <br /> tree, shrub, and grass communities of the area. Color photographs, sufficient to <br /> adequately represent the ecology of the site and adequately labeled (including date, <br /> orientation and location), may be used in lieu of a written description. Based on the <br /> quality of the photographs,the Division may require additional detail. <br /> The prospecting area falls within the Colorado Plateau Pinyon-Juniper Shrubland <br /> ecological system. Native vegetation includes pinyon and juniper trees, shrubs <br /> layers. See Attachment 7 for photos. <br /> Form 2—Public File Page 8 of 14 <br />
