• slow down the runoff or to channel flows. Straw dikes will also be used where appropriate to control runoff <br />and promote vegetation. <br />Other Methods. If corrective measures described under "No Defined Channel" fail, further observation will <br />be necessary to develop addkional measures. A combination of the first two described methods or some <br />vadation will then be applied. Methods may indude rods channels, contour furrows, or laterals with rods or <br />matting lined bottoms, V ditches made with a dozer or motor grader, and methods described above to <br />reestablish vegetation. <br />Head Cutting Stabilization. Head cutting will be controlled using several varying methods. If the area is at a <br />point that concentrates runoff, the area will be improved to accept the runoff. This would indude reshaping <br />the channel and channel bottom, seeding, and covering the channel with erosion matting or rock. In other <br />areas, depending on the extent of erosion and time of year, disking and seeding will be conducted as <br />required. Straw bales, erosion matting and rock fill may also be used to stabilize the area. Straw mulching <br />• and crimping will be considered as a further option. <br />SCC will submit to the Division by June 1 of each year, a copy of the map identifying the rill and gully areas <br />along with a rill and gully stabilization plan that briefly describes the problem at each identfied area and the <br />proposed mitigative measures. The rill and gully stabilization plan will be implemented by Jury 1 of each <br />year and completed by November 1 or until weather conditions restrict operations. <br />Reveaetation Monitoring <br />Monitoring of revegetated areas at the Senece II Mine will consist of qualitative evaluations and quantitative <br />measurements. Qualitative evaluations will be carried out annually during the growing season, while <br />quantitative measurements and evaluations will be on a more periodic basis. <br />Qualitative evaluations will consist of visual observations of newly seeded areas to evaluate seeding <br />success, note excessive rilling and gultying, determine composition of establishing species, identify potential <br />• noxious weed problems and estimate the degree of species establishment through natural regeneration. <br />Qualitative evaluations may extend past the first several years for areas of new rill and gully repair, areas of <br />TR-37 1&25 Revised 04/05 <br />
