Exhibit I—Soils Information <br /> 52. Please provide the complete NRCS report for each unit contained within the permit <br /> boundary. <br /> Please see the attached NRCS Soil Survey that covers the entire property. <br /> Exhibit J—Vegetation Information <br /> 53. Information included was qualitative and not specific enough.Please describe the present <br /> vegetation types,which includes quantitative estimates of cover and height for the principal <br /> species in each life-form represented(i.e.,trees,tall shrubs, low shrubs,grasses,forbs). If <br /> vegetation varies throughout the site please characterize areas individually and include a map <br /> delineating areas. <br /> Vegetation on site consists of common western slope rangeland shrubs, patches of grass,and <br /> small forbs. Cover is 30-50%,with most vegetation being no more than two feet in height. <br /> Taller shrubs can be found in the road drainage ditches and near the Colorado River, but <br /> these areas will not be affected by mining. <br /> 54. Describe the relationship of present vegetation types to soil types, or alternatively,the <br /> information may be presented on a map. <br /> Soil type is the same over the course of the mining area,as seen on Map C-1. <br /> 55. Show the relation of the types of vegetation to existing topography on a map in Exhibit C.Only <br /> woodlands and wetlands are currently delineated.In providing such information,the <br /> Operator/Applicant may want to contact the local Soil Conservation District. <br /> All maps have been revised to show the vegetation accurately as Rangeland. <br />
