Grasses and Forbs Used in Interim and Final Reclamation <br /> Shrub species shown in Table 2 will be added for final reclamation. Based on reclamation results from <br /> nearby well pads, it is anticipated that sagebrush will eventually re-establish from nearby native stands. <br /> Therefore, it has not been included in the seed mix. However, if necessary, Wyoming Big Sagebrush <br /> (Artemisia tridentate var. wyomingensis) at 0.25 to 0.5 PLS/acre will be added to the seed mix. <br /> Species Variety Scientific Name Application Rate <br /> (PLS/acre) <br /> Shrubs <br /> Four-wing Saltbush Rincon(dewinged) Atriplex canescens 1.5 <br /> Winterfat Krascheninnikovia 0.5 <br /> lanata <br /> Antelope Bitterbrush Purshia tridentata 1.0 <br /> Table 2. Shrubs Used in Final Reclamation <br /> Seed mixes as detailed in Table 1 and Table 2 were designed to average 50 seeds per square foot with <br /> the assumption that there would not be a substantial viable seed bank remaining in topsoil piles that <br /> had been stored for greater than 6 months. At the discretion of the BLM, it may be appropriate to <br /> reduce the seeding rates (adjusted to 20 to 30 seeds per square foot) in circumstances where a <br /> substantial viable seed bank persists in the topsoil. <br /> Daub &Associates, Inc.
