UK Milling Company, LLC <br /> Penn Mine / Lake County,Colorado <br /> (ii) state at what point in the mining plan the site will be seeded. Explain how the seedbed will be prepared <br /> to eliminate compacted conditions (e.g., plowed, chiseled, disked). State the type, application rate, and <br /> soil incorporation methods of fertilizer application, if any. NOTE: Soil amendments shall only be applied <br /> where soil tests indicate nutrient deficiencies for the plant species to be established; <br /> At a point in time each fall a selected area will be prepared by methods stated above and revegetation <br /> process will commence. Drilling to seed is the proposed method. For a seed mix known as the "Subalpine <br /> Vegetation Areas(9,000—treeline).The application rate for drilling is 9.45 pounds per acre.The seed mix <br /> is listed in Table 5-1. <br /> (iii) state the grass, forb, shrub and tree species to be planted and the applicable quantities. Specify the <br /> quantity of each grass and forb species as pounds of pure live seed per acre; <br /> The species as identified in Table 5-1 as listed below: <br /> Table 5-1: Seed Mix <br /> Species Scientific Name Variety Lbs/Acre <br /> Yarrow Achillea Lanulosa - 0.1 <br /> Groundsel Senecio Atratus - 0.1 <br /> Lupine Lupinus Alpestris - 1.0 <br /> Slender Wheatgrass Elymus Trachycaulus San Luis 1.4 <br /> Nodding Brome Bromus Anomalus - 2.5 <br /> Sheep Fescue Festuca Ovina Covar 0.5 <br /> Hard Fescue Festuca Ovina Darar 0.5 <br /> Duriuscula <br /> Red Fescue Festuca Rubra Pennlawn 0.5 <br /> Tufted Hairgrass Deschampsia - 0.5 <br /> Caespitosa <br /> Redtop Agrostis Alba - 0.1 <br /> Blue Wildrye Elymus Glaucus - 1.75 <br /> Muttongrass Poa Fendleriana - 0.5 <br /> Total pis lbs/acre (drilled) - - 9.45 <br /> (iv) specify the application method for grass and forb seeding. If the seed is to be broadcast,the application <br /> rate shall be twice the rate required for seed drilling. If the seedbed has not been adequately roughened <br /> prior to seeding,the seed shall be raked or harrowed after broadcast application; <br /> Drilling is the proposed method for planting the seed mix.The seedbed will be roughened as described in <br /> 6.3.4(1)(c)(i). <br /> (v) if a mulch is needed,specify the kind to be used,the crimping method,and rate of application; and <br /> The type of mulch being proposed is the spreading of on-site chipped wood mulch. The mulch shall be <br /> applied uniformly at a thickness of 3 inches over the seeded areas. Mulch shall be applied to the <br /> designated areas immediately after seeding and not later than 24 hours after seeding has been <br /> performed. Mulching shall not be done when the wind velocity exceeds 15 miles per hour. <br /> Initial Application / March 2021 5-2 <br />
