Question 2: Do we have the location data for the potential additional 10,000 acres of land in the vicinity of Fernley and Fallon, Nevada? (Township

Section Range and USGS map info)

Answer: No, we do not. The language was added to provide flexibility to the contract in case there are new/shifting priorities that are unforeseen at the present time. The locations would be within the area within/surrounding the Newlands

Project (see Figure 4. Newlands Project in the mapping portion of the contracting package).

Question 3: What is the geology of the study area? This would help determine the type of methodology needed.

Answer 3: This would be information the consultant would determine through research while developing the geoarchaeological sensitivity analysis for the study area. The project area is located within the Great Basin, more specifically, the Lahontan Valley Basin - a vestige of the prehistoric Lake Lahontan, in

Nevada. The majority of the project area is active ranchland with limited development.

Question 4: Have sediment studies been conducted?

Answer: There may be some areas of the project area with geotechnical data, but most likely not.

These are not areas currently destined for project or construction activities. They have been historically used as range lands.
