Having a BLAST?

!CARF 01/104 (KZOA A0032/12) ZOA AIRSPACE STATIONARY AIRSPACE RESERVATION FOR A BLAST ZONE WITHIN A 0.17NM RADIUS OF 3729.40N/12149.14W,AND A 0.085NM RADIUS OF 3729.51.N/12149.9W AND A 0.062NM RADIOUS OF 3730.0N/12149.5W FOR THE DEMOLITION OF EXPLOSIVE. ALL NON-PARTICIPATING AIRCRAFT ARE ADVISED TO AVOID THE NOTAMED AREA SFC 980 FT AGL WEF 1201232100
 
This was an interesting NOTAM since it seemed in the neighborhood. After checking the specific coordinates it is at the Calaveras Reservoir Dam. Work is occurring to replace this earthen dam since it was identified as seismic unsafe. Unlikely that anyone would be flying below 980 FT AGL over this area.
