Table E- 4 - Hay Mix for Upland Areas
Pure Live Seed pounds per acre; rates shown are for drill seeding; double rates for broadcast seeding
The above seed mixes may be modified by variety if availability dictates.
6. Post - Reclamation Site Drainage
The site will drain internally following reclamation in all areas except for the site entrance where
the scale house and office trailer were, and Phase IA. Phase IA will have been reclaimed and
revegetated years before the removal of the topsoil berm that surrounds it on the downhill side.
7. Revegetation Success Criteria
Revegetation will be deemed adequate when erosion is controlled, and the vegetation cover is
similar to the existing cover, and is considered satisfactory according to Division standards.
8. Monitoring Reclamation Success
Monitoring the reclamation on an ongoing basis will ensure its success. The operator plans to use
the local NRCS office to determine the capacity of the reclaimed land to control erosion. If
minor changes or modifications are needed to the seeding and reclamation plan, revision plans
will be submitted to the Division. It is hoped that the Division will provide assistance in
evaluating the success of the ongoing reclamation process. Information on all areas disturbed and
reclaimed as well as any other important items regarding the reclamation will be submitted in the
annual reports to the Division, Garfield County and Division of Parks and Wildlife will also be
consulted on the progress of the reclamation.
