One item of note in the report was the discovery of a 40,000 year old piece of wood in one of the samples used in the study. The report has been submitted to the California Geological Study for approval.

  4. We met with the local tribal historian and reviewed our Project One and Project Two plans to prepare in the event we discover any cultural artifacts.
