Rights-of-Entry (ROE’s) – 100% of ROE’s were obtained for approximately 660 acres in 144 parcels from 86 owners. Results – 100% of the acreage was searched and no MEC was found within the MRS boundary. Three (3) illumination casings were found on Bluffs of Herriman property. No vegetation removal was required. Camp Williams installed boundary fence along the MRS boundary and Parsons cleared to the fence line. All survey stakes and materials used by Parsons have been removed from the MRS. AIABZ Field Work

WOOD HOLLOW PROJECT STATUS Remedial Action at Wood Hollow is not complete and Parsons has demobilized for the season. The DGM instrument for the project was changed from the EM-61 to the Minelabs F3-UXO-DGM. Result is better discrimination from magnetic rock and more metallic anomalies to be dug. The MEC/MD distribution at the site is more extensive and more dense than anticipated. MD/MEC have been found to current boundary. Staker-Parsons mine personnel have indicated the presence of 75mm casings on adjacent parcels. Result is the site is not fully characterized and the MRS boundaries will expand. Work Plan and contract modifications are underway to address the additional extent of MEC/MD as well as the changes resulting from using the F3-UXO-DGM.
