5. Revegetation Plan <br /> The reclamation seed mix is intended to restore a vegetation community that is good for cattle <br /> and/or sheep grazing and deer/elk grazing but the mix also contains shrub seed which could <br /> potentially result in sage grouse use in the future. Many years of experience in reclaiming sites <br /> such as this have shown that although the reclamation seed mix contains considerable grasses <br /> which will rapidly grow, eventually the shrubs(particularly sagebrush)will take over the site and <br /> fully restore the existing community. <br /> The areas being reclaimed will be harrowed and drill seeded in the spring and fall with a mix <br /> consisting of the following in order to control erosion: <br /> Species Lbs Pure Live Seed per acre <br /> Fairway Crested Wheatgrass 1.5 <br /> Pubescent Wheatgrass 1.0 <br /> Galleta(floret) 3.0 <br /> Indian Ricegrass 3.0 <br /> Winterfat 0.5 <br /> Shadscale 0.5 <br /> Scarlet Globemallow 0.5 <br /> Bottlebrush 0.5 <br /> Rabbitbrush 0.5 <br /> Four-winged Saltbush 0_5 <br /> Total 11.5 lbs pure live seed per acre (drilled <br /> rate) <br />
