Tree removal will be limited to those marked or designated <br /> on the ground during the field trip of August 1 , 1985, with <br /> Doug Bowman, John Hill and Mike Ward. In the areas where <br /> centerline trees were marked, an 8 ft. limit on either side <br /> of the centerline is established. <br /> Trees will be flush cut as closely as practicable to the <br /> ground and pulled lengthwise out of the right-of-way. After <br /> operations are complete, trees and slash will be pulled back <br /> into the right-of-way to present a near natural appearance. <br /> 2. If drill pads become necessary, they will be stripped of <br /> topsoil which will be used to reclaim the site when work is <br /> completed. These pads will be recontoured to near natural <br /> configuration upon completion of the required work. <br /> 3. Steel tanks will be used to contain water and/or drilling <br /> fluids. This effluent will be hauled from the Forest. <br /> 4. If water is discovered, ten gallons per minute or less may <br /> be discharged on the surface in such a manner that erosion <br /> will not occur. Over ten gallons per minute will either be <br /> contained or sprayed in such a manner that erosion will not <br /> occur. <br /> 5. Surplus materials (cement, etc. ) will either be hauled off <br /> or buried with concurrence of the District Ranger. <br /> FS-6200-11b (7/81) <br />
