Surveying has started

The surveying for the hydrology study started on Monday.

Randy reports that "I was out with Myndi and 2 surveyors for 4 1/2 Hours today. We got the side next to Houston Mesa Rd. staked. Zonge still has to tell us what they need done. The terrain is very hilly and dense. I think if we had to do much clearing it would take days if not weeks. We walked about 3 miles to survey a little less than one mile. Not sure when the other line is to get surveyed they will let me know."

Myndi reported that "Randy and I spent most of yesterday out with Northstar Surveying marking the approximately 1 mile line every 200 yards. It was quite a hike and will need some thorough clearing in sections. Because of weather today we have put off line 1 until tomorrow. We have about 1000 - 1200' in the center section of line 2 that was missed because of lack of radio signal due to the canyons we were in. Northstar will set their radio equipment in new locations to remark the 5 stations missed. I have a call in to Zonge Engineering to clarify the width of clearing and will work with the Forest Service on marking any trees we cannot clear."

Progress is moving forward toward a solution.
