Document Description
The proposed sampling action is limited in nature and will consist of the collection of soil related mine waste material (~30 to 60 soil samples) and require a maximum of 4 DTSC employees and sub-contractors. The sampling will be implemented using an excavator and hand tools to collect soil from a maximum depth of 4 ft below ground surface. All field work will be conducted under the supervision of a Department of Parks and Recreation approved archeologist and biologist. Each of the 2 proposed soil sampling events are expected to last 3-5 days and will be conducted during daylight hours Monday through Friday.
