<br /> <br /> <br />Shrubland reference areas. These vegetation types occur in the <br />1982 study area as well as on both the north and east leases. CMLR <br />stated that a new Galleta/Cheatgrass reference area could be established <br />to represent all three mine permit areas. In setting up the reference <br />area, the affected area of all three mines would be randomly sampled <br />for cover, production, and woody plant density. Sampling procedures <br />would be the same as those used in 1982 and would satisfy CMLR statistical <br />requirements. Likewise, comparability of affected and reference areas <br />would be demonstrated. <br />(4) Dorchester Coal Company stated during the meeting that the vegetation <br />mapping would be enlarged to include more of the area surrounding <br />the leases, and that the haul road corridors also would be mapped. <br />As noted above, <br />are the same as <br />are provided as <br />the quantitative <br />those used in the <br />an appendix. <br />survey methods to be used in this study <br />Fruita Mine study in 1982.
