6.4.10 Exhibit J <br /> Vegetation Information <br /> Present vegetation on this site consists mainly of blue gramma, western wheatgrass, sideoats gramma, <br /> and sand drop seed. In addition, downy brome, threeawn, buffalograss, and broom snakeweed were <br /> also observed. Due to overgrazing the condition of the range has deteriorated. Therefore, other <br /> varieties such as Russian thistle, ringmuhly, sage, and pricklypear cactus are common on the property. <br /> In some minor drainageways juniper and pinon pine have also grown in limited amounts. The percent of <br /> vegetated cover varies between 30%and 40%. <br /> The present vegetation indicates the relationship of the plants to the soil. With a moderately alkaline <br /> soil and 10 to 12 inches of rainfall per year, the present plants are very hardy and drought tolerant. <br />
