Drawer L <br />Frusta, Colorado 81521 <br />RE: Review of Revegetatton Monitoring Reports for Munger Canyon <br />(File No. C-020-81) and McClave Canyon (File No. C-004-80) Nines <br />Dear Nr. Walters: <br />Mike Savage has recently completed a review of the above referenced reDOrts. <br />The reports were well prepared and informative about the progress of the <br />revegetatton of the sites. At the time of the sampling (July-August, 1983) <br />revegetatton was successful in terms of exceeding baseline values for <br />herbaceous cover and production at both sites. Woody plants at both sites <br />were in evidence, but not at Tevels approximating pre-mining. Both sites were <br />initially seeded in 1979 with additional yearly seeding occurring on areas of <br />low cover. <br />Salt Creek Mtntng requested that revegetatton monttoring be suspended until <br />further disturbance occurs. Based on the fact that revegetatton undertaken at <br />the sites to date has been temporary in nature and will be modified by future <br />activities, the Division hereby suspends the requirement for further <br />revegetatton monttoring at these sites until permanent revegetatton occurs on <br />any area at either site. <br />If you have any questions, please call. <br />S1 cerely, <br />Jim erron <br />Reclamation Specialist <br />JH/ep <br />Doc.
