5 (FORM 2 - Public filing) <br />drill pads: 86 pads, 10'x25'= 0A9ac. <br />G. Total project area to be disturbed 1.41 (acres) overland travel: 4,019'X10'= 0.92ac. <br />K. Describe the equipment to be used for the prospecting operations: <br />1, 96 "x144" rubber -track mounted Zinex U5 drill rig, with a 22' high stinger <br />2, 4WD passenger pick up truck <br />2, ATVs for personnel, tools, supplies, and sample transportation <br />L. Describe and locate anv structures to be constructed (i.e. stockt)iles. ponds. imnoundmentsl: <br />None <br />M. Describe anticipated relationship to surface water and groundwater (proximity to streams, penetration of ground <br />water aouifers): <br />The tailings are situated above and adjacent to two perennial steams. Based on visual <br />observations both in the field and of high resolution aerial photography, there doesn't appear to be <br />any seeps or springs along the toe of the tailings piles. The tailings are very sandy and likely do <br />not contain clay rich lenses that could act as impermeable barriers that could cause percolating <br />surface water to pool in the porous tailings. There is potential that shallow groundwater could be <br />encountered at the interface of the tailings and the native surface that is buried by the tailings. <br />IV. 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 />No vegetation will be disturbed as a result of these activities. Both the drilling locations and <br />the overland travel routes are located on barren, unvegetated tailings and waste rock. <br />
