This submittal follows your correspondence of June 27, 2016. From your recent <br /> correspondence, this letter is intended to serve as a narrative to the Technical Revision to be used in <br /> conjunction with the revised map of the Reclamation Plan Update for 2016. Accordingly, you will find <br /> attached the following: <br /> 1. A map of the Reclamation Plan Update for 2016 <br /> TECHNICAL REVISION NARRATIVE <br /> The map of the Reclamation Plan Update has been prepared to reflect needed improvements to the <br /> seeding and terracing that exists on site. On this map, we have identified four separate areas of <br /> treatment that are to be employed to this site to enhance potential success in revegetation in the areas <br /> deemed deficient from our May survey of the site. These areas are noted as follows: <br /> 1. SR- Surface Roughening- to consist of raking, plowing, discing or micro-pocketing using hand <br /> tools or by mechanical means based upon the area of question and accessibility. The purpose of <br /> this will be to eliminate observed rills in the slopes identified,trap sediment, increase infiltration <br /> and to aid in the establishment of vegetative cover. The surface roughening will be performed <br /> to create horizontal ridges and depressions across the slope. Following the surface roughening, <br /> an application of 18-46-00 fertilizer will be applied at a rate of 300# per acre and subsequently <br /> the slope will be hydro seeded at 24 #/acre with the Generic Seed Mix identified on the <br /> Reclamation Plan Update for 2016 Map. <br /> 2. HB- Hand Broadcasting- to consist of broadcasting the previously referenced Generic Seed Mix <br /> at a rate of 48 #/acre using a hand spreader (This is double the rate for drill seeding and hydro <br /> GLENWOOD SPRINGS 118 West Sixth St, Suite 200 1 Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 1 970.945.1004 <br />
