Hence, it is recommended that this <br />standard be modified to read "No reclaimed area shall have a single lan ed species that represents <br />>70% relative cover". This clarification is required since the ubiquitous and invasive annual grass, <br />cheatgrass (Misantha tectorum), has relative cover values approaching or surpassing 70% in years <br />favorable to growth in the both the reference areas, as well as several revegetated units. <br />CEDAR CREEK ASSOCIATES, INC.
