Weed Control <br />United Companies will take measures to ensure that the land affected by the mining operation is <br />free of weed infestations. Currently there aze several problematic weeds present within the <br />general area where the permit will apply that have been identified by Delta County Weed <br />Control. The two species are Russian Knapweed and Whitetop. Any infestations of these weeds <br />will be removed prior to mining and will be monitored after reclamation has occurred. In order <br />to control problematic weeds, a plan has been put in place which the operator commits to follow. <br />This plan is outlined in the table below. <br />Table E-2 <br />S ecies Herbicide Control <br /> Spray in spring and fall.

These weeds will be <br /> treated either during the summer or fall months <br /> prior to the most active growth period when the <br /> leaves fall. <br />During all phases of the mining operation, the permit azea will be monitored closely every yeaz <br />which the permit is active to determine if there are any additional weeds invading the azea. <br />Weed control will again be initiated if the problem becomes serious. The DRMS will be <br />consulted regazding any additional weed infestation azea and any control measures prior to their <br />Anderson Pit, Apri107 E-5 <br />
