As a correction to <br />the 2014 Annual Reclamation Report (ARR), and as reported in the 2015 ARR, approximately <br />11.9 acres, approximately 11.9 acres of the reclaimed office/ parking area were re -seeded in <br />2014.

The permit area was surveyed for noxious weeds in 2016 to determine the need or <br />level of retreatment for previously treated areas or any new areas of weed infestations. Whitetop, <br />Dalmatian toadflax, and Leafy Spurge were the primary target species of control. The included Weed <br />Control log sheets detail areas treated along the Tie -Across Haul Road and the Tipple areas. <br />Control areas were sprayed in July and August. Spot -spraying targeted identified areas of weed <br />infestations and concentrated control activities on target areas, reducing potential impacts to adjacent <br />desirable vegetation. The weed control areas will continue to be monitored in 2017 for effectiveness <br />and necessary retreatment. <br />
