Hayden Gulch Terminal Inc. proposes to return the land use to pasture and rangeland <br />upon cessation of operations. Three sepazate seed mixes will be used to establish three <br />separate communities: dryland pasture, improved pasture, and native rangeland. The seed <br />mixes proposed incorporate native and site-adapted species with several introduced <br />species being included. In pastureland designations this is necessary for the utility of the <br />lands. The introduced species proposed for the rangeland areas aze a low percentage of <br />the entire mix, generally exhibit quick establishment, or have nitrogen-fixing <br />chazacteristics. <br />Due to the narrow configuration of the area to be reclaimed as rangeland, the proximity of <br />concentrated shrublands, and the creation of "edge" effect, the Division will not require <br />reestablishment of woody plants on rangeland sites. <br />Bonding Liability <br />The operator, HGTI, will be bonded for an amount sufficient for the Division to <br />accomplish all requirements for reclamation, should the need arise. Detailed reclamation <br />cost estimates and liability information can be found in Volume 2, Tab 23 of the permit <br />application and a summary given in Section B, below. <br />ii <br />
