Topsoil will be redistributed on all disturbed areas. The soils will be tested for nutrient deficiencies, and <br /> fertilizers will be applied as needed. <br /> Revegetation will be implemented using several approved seed mixes. One mix will be applied to areas <br /> which were identified as Meadow prior to mining,and another seed mix will be applied to the areas <br /> identified as Juniper Woodland and Mixed Shrub communities prior to mining. These two seed mixes, <br /> designated as Seed Mix No.2 and Seed Mix No. 3,were revised in Permit Renewal No. 1 to replace <br /> several aggressive introduced species with native species. Mulch will be applied at an approximate rate <br /> of 4,000 pounds per acre. The USDA-FS provided its own reclamation seed mixes for disturbed areas on <br /> USFS lands. One seed mix is for the mountain shrub community and the other is for the aspen/spruce/fir <br /> community. The Division suggested the addition of three forbs into the seed mixes. However, the <br /> USDA-FS declined the suggestion. BRL has accepted the USDA-FS reclamation seed mixes,with the <br /> knowledge that the reclamation success standards will still apply. Approval of Permit Revision No. 6 <br /> added two new seed mixes into the reclamation requirements. One seed mix is for reclamation of the <br /> hayland areas and the other is for reclamation of the pasture areas. <br /> The review of the permit renewal application revealed that the Colorado Division of Wildlife(CDOW, <br /> now the Colorado Division of Parks and Wildlife)was consulted on the shrub planting plan and woody <br /> plant stem density for reclaimed areas at the Bowie No.2 Mine. Stipulation No. 14 was added to the <br /> permit and required that BRL provide verification of concurrence from the CDOW for the proposed plan. <br /> This stipulation was deemed Complied With on July 23,2008. <br /> Hydrologic and subsidence monitoring have occurred throughout the operational and reclamation phases <br /> of the Bowie No.2 Mine project. Hydrologic monitoring continues,while subsidence monitoring at the <br /> site has been terminated. While deleterious hydrologic or subsidence-related impacts are not anticipated, <br /> the Bowie No.2 Mine PAP contains mitigation plans to be implemented if negative impacts are detected. <br /> 11 <br />
