The area is to be sloeed and reseeded back to an irrio ted pasture. A <br />.moveable sprinkaer system will cover the area and will supply the water neces- <br />sary for stand establishment. <br />The slopes of the pit should be shaved to at least 10:1 (1~) to allow the <br />sprinkler t.o cover the site. Topsoil must be applied at least 6 inches deep <br />over the site to produce a good irriigated crou. Fertilizer should be applied at <br />the time of reclamation and based on the recommendations from a soil analysis. <br />The species that may be seeded on the site include many varieties of past- <br />ure and hayland plants. The attached guide sheet lists a few of those recom- <br />mended for the Breen area. <br /> <br />~; <br />RECEIVED <br />NOV 2 81977 <br />Minr~n L.AN~ RFC' A,AgA?ION <br />Cr;-c .~~ ,.~ <br />~:3i Ul ~f IiBSO::fCL'S <br /> <br />
