Summary

DOE/NV is proposing to drill several wells to characterize the area between western Pahute Mesa and Oasis Valley. The data acquired wIII assist DOE/NV to understand and model the hydrogeologic regime underlying Pahute Mesa. Reconnaissance of the Area of Potential Effect (APE) for the ER-EC-6 project revealed one site, 26NY11016, and three isolated artifacts. The site is not eligible to the National Register of Historic Places (NR). Therefore, DRI recommends that the project proceed as planned as long as all activities stay within the APE.
