Take me into <br /> 3 that. I am going a little bit further than Dennis <br />' 4 was. What will be the general -- where do we end <br /> 5 up? <br />' 6 MS. BALDRIGE: What we end up with is a <br /> 7 grassland -- you are talking about the tailings <br /> 8 i <br />d <br />t it <br />lf? <br /> mpoun <br />men <br />se <br />' 9 UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: Yes. <br /> 10 MS. BALDRIGE: What you end up with is a <br />' 11 grassland that, at least for grazing and r~gnge land <br /> 12 purposes, is probably superior to what's oat there <br />' 13 now, because the area has been extensively <br /> 14 overgrazed in the past. <br /> 15 h <br />t <br />ili <br />i <br />f i <br />i <br /> T <br />e <br />a <br />ngs mater <br />al <br />tsel <br />s <br /> 16 relatively inert, and I think our re-vegetation <br /> 17 expert will testify later that the tailings material <br /> 18 itself has nothing that would prohibit plant growth <br /> 19 right on the tailings. And with the additional <br />' 20 18 inches of topsoil, re-vegetation should not be a <br />' 21 problem. <br /> 22 The re-vegetation species were picked <br /> 23 out based on the climatic conditions and the <br /> 24 existing vegetation at the site. So the <br />' 25 re-vegetation plan is tailored to the conditions at <br />' AGREN, BLANDO b BILLINGS <br /> <br />
