Exhibit E-1 <br />Seed Mix Formula <br />Moffat County will use the following standazd seed-mix formula for revegetation of <br />disturbed azeas in our gravel pits. <br />Pure live seed: <br />Western Wheatgrass 5.0 lblac = 37% <br />Intermediate Wheatgrass 5.0 lb/ac = 37% <br />Sheep (or hazd) Fescue 3.0 lb/ac = 22% <br />Cicer Milkvetch 0.5 lb/ac = 04% <br />The above seed-mix formula will not be modified or amended without consulting the <br />landowner and the Division of Minerals and Geology. This formula is designed for drill <br />applications; the seeding rate will be doubled for broadcasting applications. <br />Moffat County has as many as 18 active gravel pits on inventory at any one time, <br />and finds it impractical to work with a different seed-mix for each project. In <br />1991, we asked specialists from the BLM, Soil Conservation Service, Colorado <br />Division of Wildlife, Division of Minerals and Geology and County Agent to <br />design aseed-mix that would be acceptable for all of the County's projects. The <br />agencies recognized that it wasn't perfect, but they deferred to the above formula, <br />and for some 13 years, Moffat County has reclaimed its gravel pits using this <br />formula without a failure, or a complaint. <br />To whom it may concern: <br />I, ~/~, ~p ,approve of the above seed- <br />mix formula fo a reclamation of the proposed Powderwash Pit No. 66 on the Smith <br />Rancho property in Section 25, T11N, R97W of the 6`" P.M., Moffat County, Colorado. <br />Date: I - ~ Dc(' <br />Exhibit E-1 <br />
