Due to the nature of the overburden together with the <br />lack of topsoil in the area, hay, straw or fiber mulch is considered to be necessary. Fiber mulch will <br />be applied at a rate of 2,500 pounds per acre. If straw mulch is used, it will be certified "weed free" <br />and applied at a rate of 2,000 pounds per acre and either crimped or "tackified" at 150 pounds per <br />acre. <br />Therefore, the final breakdown of reclaimed acreage is as shown below: <br />Area Acreage Post-Use <br />Lake 50.0 Wildlife Habitat <br />Wetlands (seeded) 2.77 Wildlife Habitat <br />Flat area above lake and upper <br />slopes of lake (seeded to <br />dryland) 20.69 Commercial/Industrial <br />Total 73.46 <br />Gilsonite Pit 10/02 18 <br />
