The site slopes <br />toward the southeast at a very gentle (nearly flat) slope. <br />Vegetation on site appears to be as described in the vegetation exhibit of the permit application, dominated by rabbitbrush, <br />prickly pear, and blue grams. <br />Cottontail rabbits were observed at the site. <br />There are barbwire fences along the south and west sides of the proposed site. both fences appear to be in good condition. <br />The application notice sign was posted at the site as required. <br />There are no surface water features to speak of across this site and no erosional features were noted. <br />No "test pits" were observed at the site though mentioned in the permit application. For future reference, the operator <br />should be aware that all construction material exploration consisting of excavation activities like test pits requires an <br />exploration or prospecting permit (Notice of Intent) prior to conducting the activity. <br />No permanent manmade structures, other than survey monuments were noted at the site. The survey monuments were <br />located at the perimeter of the site. The operator is cautioned to avoid disturbing these monuments. This should not pose <br />a problem since the monuments are located along the boundary outside the buffer areas and along the fences. <br />Responses to this inspection report should be directed to Steve Shuey at the Division's Durango Field Office.
