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 />There is no vegetation in the 1 acre project ar .a- Th . area i all natural and previously <br />disturbed rock talus. <br />
