• Class 1: These areas require the least amount <br />o~ effort to be revegetated. Depth of suitable soil <br />material is moderate to deep. Slopes, if present, are <br />slight to moderate. Natural revegetation is evident <br />in numerous places. The soil material in this class <br />has good revegetation potential. .. <br />glass 2: This class has less potential for <br />successful revegetation than Class 1 due to shallow <br />to moderately deep soil material. Slopes are moderate <br />to steep. <br />Class 3: These areas. have the least potential for <br />successful revegetation. Typically, little or no soil <br />material is present. Slopes are steep to near vertical. <br />Map 2 shows the location of disturbed areas and the <br />revegetation potential class that each segment or area was <br />assigned for the field and lab study evaluations. Table 5 <br />lists the rating given to each segment or area and the reason <br />for the rating if not Class 1. <br />Areas rated Class 1 for revegetation potential occur <br />throughout the study area. Seeding can be accomplished by <br />drill or broadcast methods. Following seeding, the area should <br />be mulched. Hay, straw, or wood cellulose can be used. The <br />mulch will provide temporary stabilization of the surface <br />soil. It will also protect the surface soil from erosion <br />by wind and water action, aid in increasing the penetration <br />of water into the soil, and prevent the surface from <br />crusting. <br />Areas rated Class 2 for revegetation potential should <br />be treated in a manner similar to that described for Class <br />• <br />-22- <br />
