Masticated material and ground cover will remain to reduce exposed soil. Cut brush will retain its root structure and re-sprout to reduce erosion. There are no SEZ issues associated with this project. An archaeological survey was conducted on the site, resulting in no found significant sites. A Lahontan (LRWQCB) waiver has been submitted.
