Response to DRMS Adequacy Review--Conti JD Mine Recla natum Pfau Amendment <br /> URANIUM LEASING SITES <br /> Reseeding Specifications <br /> (Continuation of Revised Exhibit E) <br /> The following seed mixture was developed, in consultation with U.S. Bureau of Land <br /> Management, and is generally approved for use within the Slick Rock, Naturita, Uravan, <br /> and Gateway,Colorado, areas. Seed selection criteria were based on climate and <br /> elevation ranges within these areas. Recognizing that surface soil conditions, nutrients, <br /> and available moisture can vary within these areas, successful establishment of six or <br /> more of the twelve species is considered adequate. if the total number of species seeded <br /> is less than that specified below, the seeding rates for the individual species must be <br /> adjusted accordingly. All seed tags must be submitted to DOE for verification prior to <br /> the seeding application. <br /> Species Broadcast <br /> Application <br /> Scientific Name Common Name Rate <br /> (lbs.
