5 (FORM 2 - Public filing) <br />approximately 100 sq ft is temporarily disturbed <br />G. Total project area to be disturbed 1.00 (acres) during actual drilling, but reclaimed in plugging <br />operations which immediately follow geophysical <br />logging. <br />K. Describe the equipment to be used for the prospect operatron <br />Davey Drill Truck, 10- wheel, rubber tires; pick -up with 300 gallon water truck; 3/4 ton <br />geophysical logging truck; and one support pick -up truck. <br />- -- - - - -- -- - •- - -- -- -- - <br />. . .... . . ... <br />- - - - - - - - - - - - - . <br />- ■- - <br />.. ... . . . . <br />maintain existing access roads <br />L. Describe and locate any structures to be constructed (i.e. stockpiles, ponds, impoundments): <br />Berms, wattles, or hay bales may be utilized to prevent or improve existing erosional <br />features. <br />M. Describe anticipated relationship to surface water and groundwater (proximity to streams, penetration of ground <br />water aquifers): <br />Two monitor wells constructed by Nuvemco in summer 2008 continue to be dry. No surface waters exist <br />except for minor runoff or ponding in low areas following signficant rain or snow events. Historical and <br />monitoring well constructed. Nuvemco may drill and construct monitoring wells on the Satellite Patented <br />Claim Blocks if exploration drilling occurs on those blocks. <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. In addition to the aerial photographic basemap, photos and radiometric surveys have been <br />taken, and additional photographs will be taken prior to drilling. <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 />The site is almost exclusively composed of pinon juniper community. Major plant species include pinon <br />pine (Pinus edulis), Utah juniper (Juniperus osteosperma), one -seed juniper (Juniperus monosperma), <br />Wyoming big sagebrush (Arternisia tridenldda wyorninyensis), and mountain mahogany (Ceruoearpus <br />mnntanus). There are significant areas of hare ground throughout scattered pinon juniper clusters. <br />Much is rock outcrop, south facing slopes, limited soil, thin due to cattle grazing, and current recreational <br />use ana past mining activities. Driiung wail be limited to existing roaas witn minimal impact. it necessary, <br />the ground will be scarified and the recommended seed mixture broadcast. <br />
