This NMERT project is intended to serve as a desktop evaluation of existing environmental conditions to facilitate preparation of a Biological Baseline Survey Report. Summa Silver Corp. (Summa; Operator; Proponent) has submitted a Plan of Operations (PoO; Plan) pursuant to Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 228, Subpart A, Locatable Minerals and New Mexico Mining and Minerals Division Permit CA027EM Modification. The Mogollon Project (Project; Operation) is located within the Mogollon Mining District on National Forest System (NFS) lands administered by the Glenwood Ranger District of the Gila National Forest in Catron County, New Mexico. The Project Area will be accessed from Bursum Road (NM-159) using existing NFS roads FR720A and FR4056M, which provide access to the proposed drill sites and support areas.
Summa proposes a minimal-impact diamond core-drilling operation to evaluate silver mineralization from four drill pads located entirely on NFS land. Three to four small-footprint, truck-mounted, track-mounted, or skid-mounted core drill rigs will be used to complete multiple angled boreholes of HQ or NQ diameter using mud/fluid circulation. The number of boreholes completed from each pad will depend on drilling results, and no more than four boreholes will remain open concurrently. Each drill pad will measure approximately 50 by 50 feet and will be graded or bladed only as needed to establish a level working surface.
A temporary staging area will support the storage, organization, and maintenance of materials, equipment, and vehicles needed for Project operations. The PoO proposes 0.302 acre of total surface disturbance, consisting of 0.229 acre for the four drill pads (approximately 0.057 acre per pad) and 0.073 acre for improvements to portions of FR720A outside the drill-pad boundaries. No new roads will be constructed.
Area under review for potential solar development. Site is approximately 4,800 acres, entirely on private lands in Chaves County, New Mexico. The Project is in the preliminary review phase. Timing of activities, equipment used, and extent of ground disturbance have not yet been determined. No formal wildlife surveys have been completed. This ERT report will be used to inform a baseline biological evaluation of the site.
Our client proposes to construct a 199-foot-tall self-support telecommunications tower within a proposed 40-foot by 40-foot lease area. A proposed 15-foot-wide access and utility easement, with a 40-foot-wide turnaround, will route east from the proposed lease area approximately 100 feet then continue north approximately 270 feet to an existing drive along NM-457. A proposed 10-foot-wide utility easement will route east from the proposed lease area approximately 120 feet to a proposed utility pole. A proposed 5-foot-wide utility easement will route east from the 15-foot-wide easement approximately 15 feet to a proposed fiber vault. The site is on raw land in the vicinity of desert scrubland.
The client proposes the construction of a 195 ft. self-support telecommunications tower with a total height of 199 ft. and associated equipment within a 50 ft. by 50 ft. fenced compound/lease area. The site location will connect to Old U.S. Highway 66 to the north of the compound with a 20 ft. wide access/utility easement. There is an additional 5 ft. wide utility easement that will extend west from the compound and north to an existing overhead utility line to connect with existing utilities. The project site is located east of Moriarty in Torrance County, New Mexico.
Our client proposes to remove an existing 26.4-foot-tall light pole and replace it with a 28.6-foot-tall light pole with telecommunications antennas. A proposed fiber conduit will route southeast approximately 2 feet to an existing fiber vault. A proposed power conduit will route approximately 2 feet from the pole to a proposed electrical pull box. A second proposed power conduit will route generally northeast approximately 210 feet from the pole to a proposed meter pedestal. The site is located in a public right-of-way surrounded by residential development.
BLM Wilderness Manual Reviews for Possible Changes
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is seeking public comment on potential updates to BLM Manual 6320--Considering Lands with Wilderness Characteristics in the BLM Land Use Planning Process, BLM Manual 6330--Management of Wilderness Study Areas, and BLM Manual 6340--Management of Designated Wilderness Areas and is interested in receiving information and recommendations regarding whether updates, clarifications, or other revisions to existing Manuals 6320, 6330, and/or 6340 may be appropriate.
Our client proposes to remove an existing light pole and replace it with a 24.1-foot-tall light pole with telecommunications antennas (29.9 feet overall). A proposed fiber conduit will route from the proposed pole approximately 6 feet west to an existing fiber vault. A proposed power conduit will route south of the proposed pole approximately 48 feet to a proposed meter pedestal, then west approximately 122 feet to an existing power pole. A proposed electric pull box will be installed approximately 2 feet east of the proposed pole and will route generally south approximately 51 feet then route west approximately 3 feet to the proposed meter pedestal. The site is within a public right of way in the vicinity of residential development.
On behalf of ForeFront Power Origination, LLC (FFP), Westwood Professional Services, Inc. (Westwood) is
gathering information and requesting agency comments for the proposed Pino II Solar Project (Project) in San
Miguel County, New Mexico (Figure 1). The purpose of this letter is to inform you of the proposed Project,
