Roads would be 1°_ft for access to the area <br />for future farying and grazing uses. These rozds would also <br />permit access for monitoring reclamation success. Lands <br />would be reclaimed to create an aesthetically pleasing area, <br />The areas seeded would Se monitored on a weekly basis to <br />check the vigor and plant establishment. N,onitoring would <br />consist of on-site inspections. On an annual basis, in late <br />sumaer or early fall, each site would be evaluated for <br />production, density, and species adaptation.
