~, <br />Appendu A - ~eRelation Sampling for 1998 <br />vegetative cover, thus meeting the perennial warm-season grass diversity requirement. Russian <br />' wild-cye, slender wheatgrass, smooth brome, western wheatgrass, and green needlegrass fall <br />within the cool-season perennial grass diversity requirement. <br />Of the four perennial forb species sampled on the disturbed area in June and September, only ~~~ <br />alfalfa exhibits a relative cover of greater than 3.0 percent. This is consistent with the reference ~°'S,s~~ , ,J <br />area data in which only one perennial forb, cicer milkvetch, was sampled with an abundance .~'~f~'~^° <br />greater than 3.0 percent. Since forb species diversity is an arbitrary standard, Kaiser requests the Q ~ A^1 <br />use of comparison to the reference area for the determination of forb diversity success. Ld' ;T ~ <br />SAMPLING PROGRAM FOR 1999 <br />' Vegetation sampling will be conducted during 1999 for completion of year ten data. Sampling will <br />be conducted consistent with the methods presented herein. Sampling will be conducted during <br />mid-July to identify both cool and warm-season species that are required to be present on the <br />' reclaimed area. <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br />1 <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br />1 <br />BonG053 1999-053.wpd~February 26, 1999 A- l n <br /> <br />
