The site was chosen as a background or reference site for soil, dust, and biological sampling. Mammals and invertebrates were collected in July 2015 , and vegetation was collected in August 2015. Environmental DNA (eDNA) samples were collected in August 2016. Dust sample collectors were installed in August 2015. Soil samples were collected in November 2016 to characterize background chemical characteristics of the shallow subsurface.
