Summary

DOE/NV is proposing to drill several wells to characterize the area between western Pahute Mesa and Oasis Valley. The data acquired will assist DOE/NV to understand and model the hydrogeologic regime underlying Pahute Mesa. Reconnaissance of the Area of Potential Effect (APE) of the ER-EC-7 project revealed one site 26NY10972, a small locality, one isolated feature 1120997RJ02, a rock cairn/cache, along the northern side of the proposed access road (Figures 2 and 3). Site 26NY10972 is not recommended by DRJ as eligible to the National Register of Historic Places (NR). Therefore DRI recommends that the project proceed as planned.
