Seeding will be accomplished by either broadcasting, or by using a seed drill. If broadcasting <br />is used, seed rates will be doubled. Due to the nature of the overburden and topsoil found in the area; <br />hay, straw or fiber mulch is considered to be necessary. Fiber mulch will be applied at a rate of 2,500 <br />pounds per acre. If straw mulch is used it will be certified "weed free" and applied at a rate of 2,000 <br />pounds per acre and either crimped or "tacified" at 150 pounds per acre. "Biosol" fertilizer will be <br />applied at a rate of at least 1000 pounds per acre. <br />Revised January, 2003 <br />
