3) After reclamation, weed surveys and spraying will continue until the perennial cover and <br />production of the site have met DRMS requirements and bond release has been obtained. <br />The Division and Gunnison County weed control staff will be consulted regarding any weed <br />infestation area and any control measures prior to their initiation. <br />During all stages of the mining operation, the permit area will be monitored closely every year. If <br />infestations of similar weeds now present are experienced, the current weed control plan will <br />continue to be used. If any new species of weeds are found, Gunnison County Weed Control <br />Authority and the Division will be consulted in order to formulate the best plan for the new <br />infestation. <br />8. Revegetation Success Criteria <br />Revegetation will be deemed adequate when erosion is controlled, and the vegetation is <br />considered satisfactory by the Division. <br />9. Monitoring Reclamation Success <br />Monitoring the reclamation on an ongoing basis will help to assure successful reclamation. The <br />operator plans to use the local NRCS office to assist in determining the ability of the reclaimed <br />land to control erosion and any other suggestions that may enhance the reclamation of the site. If <br />minor changes or modifications are needed to the seeding and reclamation plan, revision plans <br />will be submitted to DRMS as required. It is hoped that the Division will provide assistance in <br />evaluating the success of the ongoing reclamation process. All disturbed and reclaimed areas and <br />other important items regarding the reclamation will be submitted in the annual reports to the <br />Division. <br />The Colorado Division of Wildlife will also be consulted if any suggested items may provide <br />enhanced wildlife habitat. <br />Tomichi Pit, December 2013 E -6 <br />
