EXHIBIT E (Cont'd) <br />is to be drilled; the surface will be left fairly rough where <br />it is necessary to broadcast the seed. <br />3. Seed Mixture. The following mixture will deposit <br />about 31 live seeds per square foot and should be drilled in <br />all areas to be revegetated. The mixture is designed to be <br />drilled at a depth of 1/4 to 1/2 inch; if it is necessary to <br />broadcast the seed, seed rates will be doubled and will be <br />spread on a rough surface and dragged thoroughly after seeding. <br />Species Lbs.

Mulch , This mixture does not require a mulch and, in <br />' fact, on these soils a mulch could be a distinct deterrent to <br />successful revegetation because the mulching action would keep <br />I the soils more moist and somewhat cooler that desirable and <br />would induce excessive salt buildup in the soil surfaces. <br />5. Irrigation. Irrigation is not considered necessary <br />for establishment of the recommended revegetation. <br />6. Weed Control. Growth of weeds will be monitored care- <br />fully each spring for the first two years after seeding. Severe <br />weed growth will be controlled by mowing. Chemical weed con- <br />trol will be avoided because the chemicals would kill the Four- <br />wing Saltbush. <br />7. Trees. Native species are expected to invade the <br />affected land.
