These soils both have <br />about 11 inches of topsoil over stratified sands and yravels. <br />The Land is in capability class VIe and Vlv. The range site <br />is Loamy Plains. <br />Tho exiecing vegetation is predominately field bindweed, <br />kochia and mustards since the fields ware never revegataLed <br />to native grasses when the irrigation eater was removed. <br />Reclamation of this site should includo shaping all slopes to <br />stable grades of 4;1 or less. Tho topsoil should be <br />stockpiled when the new area is opened. This material should <br />then be spread evenly over tl~e shaped and graded site at the <br />time of reclamation. A soil test should also be performed al <br />the time of reclamation to determine if plant nukrients in <br />the topsoil are adequate. The attached "Grass Seeding Plan", <br />form CO-GCS-S, contains seeding mixture and mulch <br />recommendations as well as other pertainent information. <br />~7C~~ <br />Roberk Appel, <br />District Conservationist <br />P03 <br />~Yers-t.~rln~Yr <br />
