• The most impressive part of the Lone Pine Gulch Portal Site reclamation is the vegetative cover <br />present. Not only was the observed vegetation noticeably robust for having only five weeks of <br />growth, no annual species were detected on either reclamation site. Perennial grasses represent <br />the dominant life-form growing on the Lone Pine Gulch Portal Site. None of the vegetation <br />observed on these reclaimed areas was producing seed, and it is unlikely that any seed was <br />produced prior to the onset of freezing temperatures in mid-October of 2002. This azea should be <br />evaluated closely in the spring of 2003 to determine if viable plant germination is progressing. If <br />perennial grass sprouts aze lacking amidst the presence of adequate moisture, or if an infestation <br />of annual species is detected, immediate application of the desired seed mixture should be <br />initiated. <br />• <br />• <br />
