REVEGETATION PLAN <br />• The major change to the revegetation plan is the elimination of <br />mulching as approved May 16, 1485. All reference to annual cereal <br />grains and straw or hay mulches is no longer applicable. All seeding <br />will be done with permanent seed mixtures. <br />As described in the soil stabilization plan, drill seeding will be <br />preceded by chisel plowing and followed by contour furrowing. All <br />topsoil laid down during the summer and fall, prior to major snowfall <br />or freezeup of topsoil, will be seeded. In the event of winter <br />topsoiling under conditions which prevent seeding, contour furrows will <br />be installed. Chisel plowing and seeding will then be implemented <br />during the first normal planting season when weather and soil moisture <br />conditions allow. <br />The topsoil plan previously described will determine the revegetation <br />or seeding schedule. <br />• Seed will be drill seeded with a heavy duty rangeland drill pulled by a <br />rubber-tired farm tractor. One exception is aerial seeding on steep <br />slopes as approved December 6, 1982 and January 7, 1986. Seeding will <br />be done on the contour except as otherwise provided. The rangeland <br />seed mix, Permit Renewal Table 8, will be divided into three separate <br />submixes. These three mixes will then be seeded in alternating rows in <br />order to reduce competition and allow establishment of shrubs and less <br />competitive forbs. The three mixes will be as follows: 1) grasses, <br />alfalfa, and titer milkvetch, 2) remaining forbs, and 3) shrubs. <br />Seeding along permanent gullies or channels is also dune perpendicular <br />to the contour. This was discussed with CMLRD during their inspection <br />of May 15, 1986. This is necessary because of the long narrow strips <br />of topsoil which are disturbed along side permanent channels during <br />their construction. These strips of topsoil cannot be practically <br />drilled seeded in any other manner. Care will be taken during <br />construction of contour furrows in these areas. <br />• <br />Permit Renewal 780-117-1 Revised 03/30/87 <br />
