If these areas are broadcast seeded ~• <br />then these rates should be doubled. Seeding should occur in the fall as soon as it <br />begins to consistently freeze during the nights and preferably before the ground <br />freezes, but seeding can occur after the ground freezes, provided that the ground <br />surface has been sufficiently scarified to ensure that the seed is covered. Spring seed <br />can occur a:; soon as the ground is dry enough to seed and preferably no later than the <br />15'h of May. <br />After the revegetated areas have been seeded, they should be mulched with either <br />locally grown hay mulch applied at the rate of 2,000 pounds per acre or wood fiber <br />mulch which can be applied with a hydromulcher at the rate of no less than 1,000 <br />pounds of wood fiber mulch per acre. <br />Cost of the above-mentioned seed mixtures is estimated at between $ 70 and $ 80 per <br />acre. <br />WEED CONTROL <br />Given the relatively low level of weeds which are currently found on this area and the <br />extensive experience we have had in this immediate area reseeding coal exploration <br />drill pads we feel that there is a relative low probability that noxious weeds will become <br />established on any of the reseeded areas. Newly reseeded areas always exhibit high <br />levels of broad-leafed weed growth and this is part of the typical successional nature of <br />plant growth of newly replanted sites. <br />79 <br />• <br />
