drilled or broadcast seeded depending on slope conditions and site parameters at the time of <br /> planting. Areas with fresh topsoil placed directly from the adjacent mining area may not require <br /> seeding as live volunteer rangeland seeds will be included in the topsoil. The seed mix listed <br /> below will be used to revegetate the site with high altitude rangeland mix on all surfaces, as <br /> needed. Shredded trees or certified weed free mulch may be crimped into the surface at 2000 lbs. <br /> per acre. Soil amendments may be added to substitute topsoil created from settling pond fines, as <br /> needed and determined by a soil test at the time of seeding. Heavy furrows will be left in placed <br /> topsoil to provide moisture concentration and shade areas in order to promote better conditions <br /> for successful vegetation establishment. Seeding will take place during the fall following <br /> retopsoiling of slopes. Slopes will be regraded, backfilled, and retopsoiled as soon as they are <br /> able to be reclaimed. <br /> 3.1 Revegetation Flexibility <br /> In order to achieve successful revegetation on the last remaining areas of the site to enter final <br /> reclamation, Titan Au will employ different revegetation tactics based on what conditions merit. <br /> Therefore, the Operator retains the ability to alter the seed mix, seeding plan,topsoil depth and <br /> any other component of revegetation on the pre-law areas that have not been disturbed by mining <br /> under a DRMS permit. Once Titan Au has found successful strategies for revegetation, it will <br /> submit a revision to this permit to allow the use of those strategies on the rest of the site as <br /> appropriate. All revegetation work at the Box Creek Placer Mine will be done with consultation <br /> of the local Natural Resources Conservation Service office and Lake County. <br /> 3.2 Rangeland Seed Mix <br /> Species Pounds of pure live seed per acre(drilled) <br /> Sheep fescue-Bighorn 0.50 <br /> Mountain Brome-Bromer 3.00 <br /> Big Bluegrass-Sherman 0.50 <br /> Slender Wheatgrass-San Luis 2.00 <br /> Ferry's Oatgrass 2.00 <br /> Timothy, alpine-native 0.25 <br /> Praide Junegrass 0.15 <br /> Needlegrass green-Londorm 2.00 <br /> Box Creek Placer Mine (:rcl Lcwicki and Asnriatcc PL1 f <br /> September 2018 E-3 <br />
