2 - Within mine study area but outside proposed mining area 



3 - All other areas in the reconnaissance level study area 



Note : A different level code was implemented for the monitoring study, 

 beginning in March 1978; it is shown on the accompanying map. 



2. Date * List only for first observation, or for observations listed at top
