5 (FORM 2 - Public filing) <br />G. Total project area to be disturbed 0.10 (acres) <br />K. Describe the equipment to be used for the prospecting operations: <br />Initially a Surface Core drill capable of 1,500 feet of core drilling with H, N and B core. This <br />may be replaced with a larger drill capable of 6,000 feet of core drilling with H, N and B core. <br />Tractor mounted backhoe for drill site pad, pit and reclamation as needed. Dozer (JD Model <br />water storage tank (4.000 gal) if required. Light trucks and pickup as needed. <br />L. Describe and locate any structures to be constructed (i.e. stockpiles, ponds, impoundments): <br />Mud pit and trenches as required to support drilling operations. Mud pit previously <br />described. No additional features are planned. <br />M. Describe anticipated relationship to surface water and groundwater (proximity to streams, penetration of ground <br />water aquifers): <br />Drill location is approximately 300 feet above the East Mancos River. No surface water <br />features are in proximity to drill site. No intersection of ground water is anticipated. <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 wil he impacted by planned drilling <br />
