Grazing can do <br />severe damage to inadequately developed vegetation. <br />Weed control will be implemented as needed, depending upon the relative <br />• <br />intensity of the weed growth and whether the weed growth will cause any severe <br />impacts on the development of the desirable vegetation. On occasion, weed growth <br />can be beneficial to the development of the vegetation in that it provides :,oil <br />cooling and shade for the young grasses. Some weeds only survive a couple of <br />years and cause little harm to the developing vegetation because they are quite <br />non-competitive. Other weeds, however, cannot be tolerated to any extent and need <br />to be actively controlled. <br />Irrigation will not be used in the revegetation because there isn't any water <br />available to use for irrigation. Even if it were available, it Would be used only <br />as a last resort When all else failed. <br />Mulching Will generally not be used. The experience of nearby people is that <br />mulch does little good and generally blows away. Careful salvage and replacement <br />of topsoil is far more effective, especially when combined with furrowing in a <br />direction perpendicular to the direction of the strongest winds. <br />The seed mixtures to be used will be as follows. Two mixtures are provided. <br />One is the final revegetation mix while the other is for seeding topsoil <br />stockpiles in order to stabilize those areas against significant soil loss as a <br />result of wind erosion. <br />page 8 of 10 Exhibit E <br />
