For the purposes of disturbance estimation, it was assumed that each drill site would be 20-feet by 40-feet and that all fourteen of the drill sites would need blading and grading. It is further assumed that cut and fill slopes would not create additional disturbance on each side of each pad. Assuming fourteen sites need minor leveling and construction of the fourteen outboard 10'X 10' pits 0.29 acres of disturbance may result from construction of drill sites and associated pits. No impacts or disturbance from pedestrian point placement and recording is anticipated, as again, such pedestrian-based activity would meet the criteria for classification as "casual use." Data Acquisition Recording equipment, supplies and possibly core would be transported to and from the field by truck or backhoe using existing roads and proposed travel routes. Sufficient equipment to drill holes and minimize transport use would be placed on the drill pad and carried from hole to hole with the drilling rig and supply transports. Approximately 3 crewmembers would conduct daily operations for 12 to 14 hours per day. Crewmembers would be organized into field groups of 2 to 4 personnel; groups would operate at intervals throughout the project area. Crewmembers would carpool daily to the project area in the morning and return to surrounding cities/towns in the evening. Demobilization The demobilization task would proceed concurrently with data acquisition. All stakes, flagging, and other trash would be gathered daily as the field groups and crew members complete data-acquisition portions of the project. The refuse would be collected at
