• <br /> The mixture will be planted between March 15 and April 15 . It <br /> will receive initial fertilization at one-third the full rate <br /> indicated by soil tests made during the February preceding the <br /> planting. In mid-September, following the first growing season, <br /> the area will be fertilized again at the full rate indicted by <br /> the soil tests. This system will help give the grasses a start <br /> without boosting weed growth excessively and then boost the <br /> grass root growth during a time when weeds are dormant. It is <br /> anticipated that by using this system the Smooth Brome- <br /> Intermediate Wheatgrass combination will be effective in keeping <br /> weed growth to a minimum during the second season. If such is <br /> not the case, some weed control measures may be implemented, but <br /> this is not expected to be more than a mere possibility. <br /> Tree and shrub planting will occur the first spring ( late April <br /> to late May) following grass seeding. Trees will be planted at <br /> intervals of 40 feet, with a minimum of 5 shrubs planted between <br /> the trees along a 300 foot stretch of the City Trail and consist <br /> of an assortment of 5 gallon potted trees and shrubs from the <br /> following mix. Each tree and shrub will be given a heavy <br /> initial watering followed by a heavy watering biweekly until <br /> mid-June . The trees and shrubs will be watered heavily in late <br /> September, and thereafter they will establish themselves on <br /> ground water sources. <br /> Shrubs: Silver Buffaloberry <br /> Currant <br /> Rabbitbrush <br /> Willow <br /> Serviceberry <br /> Native Shrub Rose <br /> Snowberry <br /> Trees: Narrowleaf Cottonwood <br /> Sargents Cottonwood (cottonless variety) <br /> Chockcherry <br /> Wild Plum <br /> River Hawthorne <br /> Rabbitbrush <br /> Russian Olive <br /> Contingency Plan for Industrial Site <br /> It is hoped that the industrial site will be developed <br /> immediately upon completion of mining and backfilling <br /> activities. However, in the event such development does not <br /> occur, a contingency plan is hereby submitted. The plan assumes <br /> that some kind of development will occur. <br /> In the event of development not beginning within one year of <br /> completion of mining and backfilling, the area will be planted <br /> with the following mixture of grasses and legume: <br /> -6A- <br />
