Mulching: <br /> After the disturbed areas are reseeded, certified weed free straw mulch will be crimped in <br /> at a rate 2 tons/acre.70%of the straw must be strands of 10 inches or more. <br /> Irrigation: <br /> The Reclamation Seed Mix is not required to be watered as irrigation may end up harming <br /> the development and germination of the grasses. No watering is planned for the reclaimed <br /> areas. <br /> Reclamation seeding may take up to 3 to 5 years to fully stabilize. Silt fence and erosion <br /> control measures shall remain in place until a healthy stand of vegetation has been <br /> established. <br /> e) Weed Control <br /> Post-seeding weed control will depend largely on the types and amounts of weeds that <br /> emerge. Generally, grazing should be deferred while seeded species are establishing; <br /> however, winter annuals such as Japanese and/or downy brome could be suppressed with <br /> high stock density "flash" grazing which would provide the additional benefit of improved <br /> litter incorporation. Other weeds should be mowed to a height of 6-12" to suppress vigor <br /> and seed production while also maintaining some canopy cover for shading and dissipation <br /> of raindrop energy.Noxious weeds should be aggressively spot-controlled at all times. <br /> Exk"6A E P193 o;S <br />
