F. REPORTS: <br />A 1Vater-Resources Investigations Report will be published upon <br />completion of the study. l'lie report will be avilable for review in <br />1986 and will be revised and published in 1987. <br />G. BENEFIl~S: <br />The hydrologic information will show the location of the aquifers, <br />the lateral extent of the aquifers, and the water ehemis~ry of the <br />aquifers. Surface-v:ater quantity and quality will also to reported. <br />The quantity data will only represent one year of data and, <br />therefore, should not be extrapolated beyond reasonable limits. <br />l~lie BLA1 can use the information from the report to wri'e Tract <br />Profile Reports and Environmental Impact Statements. The <br />information would help the GLM to determine if the area is suitable <br />for mining and if tl~e tract should be a high or low priority. Also, <br />identification of the hydrogeolcgy would be very useful for <br />answering potential questions from both mine operators and <br />environmental groups. Again, it~sl~ould be noted, that if no new <br />wells are drilled, the ground-water information in the s~udy area <br />will be minimal. l~herefore, any conclusions that BLPr1 would maNe <br />about the ground water in the area v+ould be subject to considerable <br />debate and may, in fact, be proven erronecus by subsequent <br />drilling operations. <br />H.
