The drill should be regulated to place seed between 0.25 and 0.5 inches <br />in depth from the ground surface. The seeding rate identified in each <br />seed mix table is the rate of application to be used when drill seeding. <br />Drill rows should be positioned so as to be perpendicular to the <br />predominant wind direction and along the contour. In areas where <br />marginal seeding conditions exist (rocky, windswept, shallow soil), two <br />passes of the drill seeder are appropriate, the applications being <br />perpendicular to each other and 45° offset from the predominant wind <br />direction. Broadcast seeding will be employed in areas where drill <br />seeding cannot be employed due to limitations in area or slope. Where <br />broadcast seeding is employed a centrifugal, fan, airblast, or hydroseeder <br />should be used to distribute the seed. Whenever broadcast methods are <br />employed it is critical to ensure that the seed is subsequently covered <br />through raking, harrowing, disking, cultipacking, or mulching. Seeding <br />rates for broadcast seeding are twice those employed for drill seeding. <br />Mulching <br />Mulch will be employed to minimize loss of seed due to wind and water, <br />and to provide additional moisture retention. Any of the following mulch <br />methods may be employed depending on time of anticipated reseeding, <br />mulch availability, and site specific factors such as slope and aspect. <br />GCC Energy, LLC <br />Page 11 <br />Section 2.05.4 <br />Page 11 <br />July 11, 2017 (RN -07) <br />King II Mine <br />
