<br />vegetative cover measured on the reference area with a <br />90~ confidence interval, (Rule 4.15.8(3)(a)) <br />Vegetative production will be measured by clipping and <br />oven drying live vegetative cover, in both the reclaimed <br />area and grassland reference area. Productivity on the <br />reclaimed area will be a minimum of 90$ at a 90$ <br />confidence of the productivity present on the reference <br />area, (Rule 4.15.8(3)(b)). <br />Diversity standards have been established for the <br />reclaimed area. Diversity will be considered acceptable <br />when "two perennial cool season grasses and two <br />perennial forb species with at lease 3$, but less than <br />40$ relative cover, and any combination of warm season <br />grasses with at least 6$ relative cover and no upper <br />limit," become established. <br />There is no woody plant density standard for the site. <br />m:\coal\share\CCMCfind.jhb <br />
