~ III IIIIIIIIIIIIIIII ~ <br />Parkdale Project Reclamation Permit <br />S/1~ <br />Exhibit J -Vegetation Information <br />Introduction <br />Vegetation studies were completed within the proposed permit area on April 21 and 22, <br />1997 by representatives of Cedar Creek Associates, Inc. The objectives of this field <br />work were to characterize in general terms vegetation types within the proposed permit <br />area and to evaluate, in more detail, the vegetation of the areas proposed for disturbance. <br />A map was also to be prepared depicting the general vegetation types on site. <br />Seven vegetation types were delineated within the project area. These include the <br />Pinyon/Juniper, Shrub/Grassland, Stream Wash, Riparian, Grassland, PinyoNJuniper <br />Grassland and Grassland/Improved Pasture types. The paragraphs below present the <br />field data collection methodology and address each of these vegetation types. The detail <br />of each vegetation type discussion varies with the extent to which the type is proposed to <br />be disturbed. Map J depicts the boundaries of each type within the proposed permit area <br />and can be compared with Map I to show the relationship of vegetation types with soil <br />types on the areas proposed to be disturbed. Copies of all data sheets completed in the <br />field are included with this exhibit. Table J-I, located at the end of this exhibit, presents <br />a species list keyed to vegetation topographic features and is meant to support the field <br />data sheets. <br />
