The <br />first four recommendations are for the site located at the W2 of 521 <br />and the E2 of S20-Tan-R67w. These recommendations are based on the <br />varying soil types. Two recommendations are for the Water's Edge <br />area, and two are for the Upland areas. <br />Water's Edge Recommendations: <br />Soil #3 and some of #4 are considered Salt Meadow range sites. Soil <br />#4 can also be considered a Wet Meadow site, and soil #10 is a Sandy <br />Bottomland site. Use the Salt Meadow recommendation for areas where <br />soil #3 predominates, and the Wet Meadow recommendation for where soil <br />4 and 10 predominate. <br />Upland Recommendations: <br />Soil #4 could occur as an upland site, if it does then refer to the <br />Wet Meadow recommendation. Soils #1, #39, #65, #82, #83 are Loamy <br />Plains range sites. Use the upland Loamy Plains recommendation for <br />these areas. Soil #61 is a Sandstone Breaks range site, and the <br />Sandstone Breaks recommendation should be used for this area. <br />Water's Edge Recommendation for Site Located at S2NW4 S30-T2n-R66w: <br />Soil #3 is dominant in this area, refer to the Salt Meadow <br />recommendation for this site. <br />General Information: <br />I have written all of the above recommendations based on normal <br />seeding rates. However, the seeding rates can be doubled if the site <br />is requiring critical area treatment due to slope length, severe <br />potential for erosion, irrigation, or heavy traffic. The total pounds <br />of Pure Live Seed needed were not calculated, as I am not aware of the <br />total acreage to be seeded. Please do not hesitate to contact me if <br />you have any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />Donna Sue Turbett <br />Rangeland Management Specialist <br />
