Richartl D. Lamm <br />Governor <br />DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES <br />Davitl H. Getche; E•ecutive Director <br />MINED LAND RECLAMATION DI\ <br />DAVID C. SHELTON, Director <br />DATE: January 2, 1986 <br />T0: Candy Thompson <br />FROM: Gre S uire ~~ , ~, <br />RE: SEED MIX FOR NORTHERN COAL'S PERMANENT STREAM CHANNEL <br />I have reviewed the seed mixes you gave me in Northern Coal's report <br />"Evaluation of reclamation Programs Northern Coal" and believe that the mix <br />reported there as the current mix is acceptable for stream channel use with a <br />few modifications. <br />Their current mix is as follows: <br />S ep ties Rate <br />Western Wheatgrass, 'Arriba' 8 <br />Slender Wheatgrass 8 <br />Streambank Wheatgrass 2 <br />Sherman Big Bluegrass 4 <br />Canada Bluegrass 4 <br />Smooth Brome 2 <br />Since this mix is to be used in a pasture area some timothy might be added to <br />it. I also recommend that about 2 pounds per acre of a legume seed be added. <br />Cicer milkvetch and/or sainfoin are suitable species. <br />srs <br />6180E <br /> <br /> <br />423 Centennial Building, 7313 Sherman Street Denver, Colorado 80203 Tel.
