3) A new, more diverse and faster acting seed <br />mixture was incorporated. <br />a> Pubescent Wheatgrass at 4.25 pounds/acre. <br />b> Intermediate Wheatgrass at 4.5 poundsfacre. <br />c> Little Bluestem at I pound PLS/acre. <br />d> Sideoats Grama at I pound PLS/acre. <br />e> Sand Bluestem at 4 pounds PLS/acre. <br />f> Sand Dropseed at 0.25 pounds PLS/acre. <br />g> Blue Grama at 0.5 pounds PLS/acre. <br />h> Western Wheatgrass at 5 pounds PLSjacre. <br />i> Yellow Sweetclover at 2 pounds PLS/acre. <br />d)Alteration in the procedure of creating some <br />final slopes from backfilling to the production of <br />slopes out of native material so stability would <br />be increased. <br />e)Inclusion of a new alignment to the Fountain <br />Mutual Ditch immediately east of Academy Boulevard. <br />6. COORDINATION WITH CASTLE CONCRETE SAND PIT: <br />a)Relocation of the Fountain Mutual Ditch to the <br />north side of the Castle Concrete Sand Pit allowed <br />removal of the ridge of sand that originally separated <br />the operations. <br />• I) This was implemented primarily at the suggestion <br />of Mike Stanton from the Colorado Division of <br />Mined Land Reclamation. <br />b)A gradually sloping land surface would extend <br />from the back of the Castle Concrete Sand Pit to the <br />south side of this permit. <br />c)This slope would be created primarily of <br />back fill material derived from the deposition of wash <br />fines produced by the processing on the Daniels Sand Pit. <br />1) This backfilling would be accomplished primarily <br />by producing a series of sediment ponds that would <br />not only extend horizontally over the permit area, but <br />also vertically to achieve the desired depth. <br />d)In effect this major change eliminated the <br />possibility of reclaiming in Area 1 on the schedule <br />called for in the original permit. <br />• <br />History <br />Page HIS•7 <br /> <br />
