Prairie Sandreed 1.3 Ibs PLS /acre <br />Switchgrass 0.8 Ibs PLS /acre <br />Alfalfa 0.4 Ibs PLS /acre <br />The grass will be seeded 0.5 inches deep using a grass drill between November 1 and May 1. <br />3) We will spread dry fertilizer before seeding using the USDA NRCS recommended application rate <br />of 40 pounds nitrogen and 40 pounds phosphorous applied per acre of reclaimed land. <br />4) The revegetation will only include drilling the above grass seed mix. There will be no trees, <br />shrubs, or other plants planted in the reclaimed area. <br />5) Topsoiling; We plan to replace the mined areas with any available topsoil that is removed before <br />the mining process. The USDA NRCS does not have soil maps for the area, we are predicting <br />topsoil depths of 6 to 12 inches, quickly transitioning to sand. Any noxious weeds encountered <br />in the mining or reclamation process will be sprayed to prevent any noxious weed infestation. <br />
