then be seeded. The following grass seed mixture will be used to plant the <br />disturbed areas where soil has been replaced. The seeding rate is based on <br />approximately 80 pure live seeds/ft.2, broadcast. The mixture includes <br />sod- and bunch-grasses. <br />SEEDING AND RECLAMATION CULTURAL PRACTICES <br />Broadcast Rate <br />Species 7 of Mixture Pounds PLS/Ac.

Alternatively, hydromulching of <br />portions of the site, particularly on benches, may occur. <br />- Two tons straw mulch per acre crimped to anchor against wind. <br />- Seeded areas will be fertilized with 40 lbs./ac. each of <br />available nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. <br />Tree/Shrubs Seedlings <br />Species* <br />Ponderosa Pine (Pinus ponderosa) <br />Rky.
