This letter documents the findings for <br />your records. All inspected drill sites, both past and present, <br />were found to be in excellent condition. Recent drill sites have <br />been backfilled, recontoured, topsoiled, scarified, and <br />revegetated. Past drill sites show no evidence of erosion and, <br />for the most part, well diversified and dense growth of grasses <br />and forbs with some sites beginning to show intrusion by shrubs. <br />All access roads were well maintained and in excellent condition <br />with no rutting or water control problems. This includes the <br />Sage Creek Road from Fed-61 to Fed-62 and the access road between <br />Fed-66 and Fed-68. While we cannot, at this time, release any <br />reclamation work as final, we do not anticipate any problems <br />developing, barring any unforeseen major precipitation events. <br />we will continue to monitor the surface erosion and revegetation <br />for the next few growing seasons. Thank you for providing such <br />excellent reclamation work on our public lands. <br />If you have any questions, please contact Robert Ernst at the <br />address listed above or call (970) 826-5079. <br />Sincerely, <br />~/ ~ ~~ <br />John E.
