Describe and locate any structures to be constructed (i.e. stockpiles, ponds, impoundments): <br />The drill sites will have a nominal 10' x 10'x Ycatchment for cuttings/fluids as required on D.O.E. <br />properties <br />J. Describe anticipated relationship to surface water and groundwater (proximity to streams, penetration of ground <br />water aquifers): <br />The drainages are ephemeral and flow only during heavy rainstorms or snow melt.

OPERATION AND RECLAMATION MEASURES: <br />'The Board suggests that a photographic record of the pre-prospecting and post-prospecting conditions be kept by the <br />prospector. These photos should be taken from the same location and by the same method to clearly show the pre-prospecting <br />condition of the land and the reclamation efforts. Upon completion of reclamation and request for bond or surety release, the <br />Board may consider the photos as evidence of adequate reclamation, and thus, be able to act more quickly on the request for <br />release, <br />2. Provide a description of the native vegetation of the area to be disturbed, including tree, shrub, and grass communities of the <br />area. Color photographs, sufficient to 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 quality of the photographs, the Division <br />may require additional. detail. <br />Pinyon, juniper forest, sagebrush, rabbitbrush, snakeweed. The area is grazed by range cattle.
