5 (FORM 2 - Public filing) <br />G. Total project area to be disturbed 5.00 (acres) <br />K. Describe the equipment to be used for the prospecting operations: <br />Hydraulic excavators will be used to excavate the collapsed adit and partially collapsed <br />shaft. Trench compactors will be utilized to assure compaction and stability of the <br />corrugated metal pipe (eMI-'). Water well type drill rigs) will be utilized to drill the <br />relatively shallow dewatering wells. <br />L. Describe and locate any structures to be constructed (i.e. stockpiles, ponds, impoundments): <br />No new structures will be constructed. Existing stockpiles, ponds, and discharge points <br />will be utilized. <br />M. Describe anticipated relationship to surface water and groundwater (proximity to streams, penetration of ground <br />water aquifers): <br />The adit of the London Butte will not require dewatering. Dewatering of the lower levels <br />will be under the existing water right and discharge permits. <br />IV. OPERATION AND RECLAMATION MEASURES: <br />1. 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 />No vegetation will he disturbed_ Shaft lies within the existing stockpile /pad area of the <br />mine. The adit also exists within disturbed ground. Existing roads and catch benches will <br />be utilized to repair the adit. Clean up of the catch benches will provide additional safety in <br />the working area. <br />
