Edna Mine Vegetation Final Bond Release Monitoring 2005-2006 <br />classification surveys will be performed on the West Ridge: Previously Disturbed <br />and Moffat Previously Disturbed areas, since they have unique slopes, soils and <br />aspects that affect their overall stability. <br />Weed Infestations <br />Significant infestations of noxious or targeted weed species as listed by Colorado <br />will be identified and their location indicated on the baseline inventory map. <br />Weed infestation observations will be made opportunistically in conjunction with <br />vegetation parameter monitoring. <br />Panoramic Photographs <br />Panoramic Photographs will be taken for each reclaimed area that is sampled. <br />Photographs will be included in the monitoring report. Photograph location and <br />direction will be observed and recorded. <br />VEGETATION FINAL BOND RELEASE MONITORING METHODS <br />Vegetation monitoring methods will use standard accepted practices and <br />methods. Sample points will be selected using stratified random methods as <br />described in this section. Cover, production and woody stem density <br />measurements will be taken at the sample points as described in this section. <br />TIMING OF VEGETATION SAMPLING <br />Cover and production samples will be taken during the projected peak of the <br />growing season. This typically occurs during the period from late June through <br />September, depending upon a given year's precipitation patterns. Woody stem <br />density measurements may be taken any time of the year, but normally they will <br />be performed in conjunction with cover and production sampling. <br />Habitat Management, Inc. 6 4/8/2025 <br />
