when completing final reclamation in the northern reaches of the permit area. The Operator will <br /> potentially modify the seed mix, seeding method, and mulching in accordance with good <br /> revegetation practices and consultation with the Natural Resources Conservation Service <br /> (MRCS)to successfully revegetate long unreclaimed areas. <br /> All reclaimed areas, except roads and water surfaces,will be reseeded after applying at least 3 <br /> inches of topsoil or substitute fines to the pre-law areas and an average of 4.5 inches of topsoil <br /> to the post-law areas. Four distinct revegetation methods will be employed: <br /> 1) Wetland fringes along ponds and lakes of approximately 10 feet width. This revegetation <br /> effort will occur on approximately l.38 acres excluding water surface. <br /> 2) High altitude dry rangeland reclaimed areas will involve seeding grasses and forbs suited for <br /> the conditions present in these areas. <br /> 3) Monitoring of existing and potential reseeding of high altitude dry rangeland species in the <br /> pre-law areas in accordance with NRCS specifications. <br /> 4) Restore an evergreen community using saplings in areas where either soils are thin or where <br /> past pre-law area revegetation was not able to be reclaimed due to complications discussed <br /> above.North facing slopes with poor soil will be especially suitable. This revegetation effort <br /> will occur on approximately 4.5 acres that will involve tree sapling planting. <br /> 3.1 Wetland Seed Mix <br /> Species Pounds of pure live seed per acre(drilled) <br /> Streambank Wheatgrass 2.5 <br /> Meadow Brome-Regar 6 <br /> Reedgrass, Canadian (or Blue Joint) 0.15 <br /> Tufted Hairgrass 0.25 <br /> Needlegrass 1 <br /> Total 9.85 <br /> Broadcast seeding will be done at double the drill rate <br /> 3_2 Rangeland Seed Mix <br /> Species Pounds of pure live seed per acre(drilled) <br /> Alma Placer Mine <br /> December 2017 E-4 <br />
