will be applied and incorporated at a rate of 40 Ibs. per acre each. Time of <br /> application will be immediately prior to seeding. If manure is applied, the manure <br /> will be of a type that has 60% or more, by weight, heavy chunks 5 inches or more <br /> in diameter. Granular or powdery manure will not be used. If nitrogen and <br /> phosphorus are applied, a native hay or straw mulch will be spread and crimped <br /> into the soil at a rate of 4000 lbs. per acre after fertilizing. Mulch will be crimped <br /> into the soil in such a way that 6 inches of mulch protrudes from the soil surface. <br /> These measures will help control wind and water erosion until the grass becomes <br /> established. <br /> Weed control will be accomplished on the site during grass stand establishment. <br /> Weed control may be chemical or mechanical. Mowing shows best results when <br /> completed between mid June and early July. No grazing will be allowed during <br /> the first two years of establishment. After this period, the success of the seeding <br /> will be evaluated. If a lush stand is present, grazing may begin. If it is <br /> determined that an insufficient stand of grass is present, the area will be seeded <br /> again. <br /> F. Seeding. The species to be seeded and the seeding rates are listed in the Table <br /> shown in Item "C". These species were selected in conjunction with Soil <br /> Conservation Service recommendations, based on species compatibility with the <br /> climate, integrity of the clay cover, and surrounding vegetation and soils. The <br /> seeding rates presented in the Table in Item "C" are based on pure live seed; <br /> therefore, the actual amount of seed applied is based on the percent purity and <br /> germination of the seed purchased. The specific varieties of the species will be <br /> based on availability at the time of seed purchase. Seeding of the mixture will be <br /> conducted after April 150' and before May 15�", if planted in the spring, and after the <br /> first hard freeze, approximately October 15t', if planted in the fall. <br /> A suitable grass drill will be used to plant the seed. The drill will have 7 to 12 inch <br /> spacing and be capable of planting fluffy seeds. It will be equipped with a seedbox <br /> agitator, picker wheels, separate small seed box, double disc furrow openers with <br /> depth bands on every disc, and packer wheels. The seed will be planted directly <br /> into cover crop residue if a cover crop has been used. In areas, which are <br /> inaccessible with a drill seeder, the seed will be broadcast at twice the drilled rate, <br /> followed by covering with a harrow or by handraking. Seeding, raking and <br /> harrowing operations will be conducted across the slope. <br /> Topsoil stockpiles will be seeded with the mixture shown in the Table in Item "C" if <br /> left in place for more than two seasons. If stockpiles will remain for more than two <br /> months or less than nine months, they will be seeded with a cereal grain such as <br /> oats or wheat at 20 pounds per acre (pure live seed). <br /> G. Application Method. The application method will be by seed drilling. Drill <br /> spacing will be 7"-12", planting depth will be '/0-314". A straw mulch will be <br /> 719958 05/28/2014g08:12 AM B: 01008 P: 131 DOCUMENT <br /> PamelalM.oBaconRCSark0.00 <br /> 0d R$ecordar.0 So ,sLogan County, CNI <br /> III WIL'IAM1E�1 RRIA h AAW IVIU�iYr`Ik <br />
