5. SEEDING: Grass seeding should be done between November 1 and May 1 . <br /> Seeding should not be done when the ground is frozen. The seedbed <br /> should be firm, moist and clean of weeds . Seeding should be into a <br /> cover crop, see item 3 above . If a cover crop is not used, then seeded <br /> area should be covered with a mulch, See item 6 below. <br /> The following is a suggested seeding mix recommendation: <br /> GRASSES % OF MIX SEED RATE <br /> Blue Grama ( Lovington) 30 0 . 5 <br /> Sideoats gram (Vaughn) 30 1 . 5 <br /> Western Wheatgrass (Arriba) 30 2 . 4 <br /> Switch (Grenville ) 10 0 . 25 <br /> *Seeding rates are in Pure Live Seed (PLS) per acre. PLS is % of <br /> purity x % Germination. A grass drill should be used with depth bands, <br /> packer wheels, and agitator . <br /> 6. MULCHING: After seeding is completed and if a cover crop is not <br /> used to seed into, then a mulch should be used. 4000 pounds per acre <br /> of good clean straw or native grass hay, should be crimped into the <br /> soil. If possible apply 10 tons/acre of dried manure on the area . <br /> 7 . WEED CONTROL: Weeds can be controlled by mowing or by chemicals . If <br /> mowing is used, LEAVING A 3" TO 4" STUBBLE HEIGHT. If chemicals are <br /> used, DO NOT SPRAY UNTIL THE GRASS SEEDLINGS ARE AT LEAST IN THREE TO <br /> FOUR LEAF STAGE. <br /> If you need additional information, give us a call at <br /> 970-774-7153 . <br /> Respectfully, q <br /> Merlyn Queen, R.0 <br /> Resource Conservationist <br /> EXHIBIT E <br /> RECLAMATION PLAN <br /> 17 <br />
