Locations which had previously been used for <br />dryland wheat cultivation will be returned to this use. <br />Revegetation will be accomplished with a drill after seedbed preparation has been accomplished. <br />specific information as to the seed and shrub mix can be found in Table 2.05-6 in the permit. <br />Water Rights and Usage <br />The proposed mining operation will use water for dust suppression, preparation facilities, and <br />domestic/sanitary uses.
