• control program. All treated areas will be reseeded with the approved seed mix to reestablish a <br />competitive and beneficial plant community. <br />Monitoring and Reoorting <br />Each spring prior to herbidde application, the SCC's redamation staff will survey and map all weed <br />infestations. The weed infestations will be mapped using a contour search pattern, i.e. following the contour <br />on the 100 to 200 ft. detection swath on toot or with an ATV. The information will be rewrded on an aerial <br />photo with a minimum scale of 1" =500 ft. scale. The map will be a permanent record available for <br />inspection by the Routt County weed coordinator or any other interested party. <br />Weed control activities at the Seneca II Mine will be reported each year to the CDMG in the Annual <br />Reclamation Report. This document will also be available for public inspection. <br />An evaluation of the effectiveness of the weed control effort will 6e included in the annual report <br />This weed management plan will be amended as necessary to reflect changes in species and control <br />methods. <br />• Hisloricelly, pest control has not been necessary at the Seneca 11 Mine. Based on this operating experience, <br />pest control is not anticipated at this time. Ongoing reclamation monitoring will identify infestations by pests. <br />If a pest infestation occurs, a pest control plan will be developed similar to the weed control plan <br />discussed above. The specific plan, based on the targeted pest, will be developed in consultation with <br />CDMG and inserted into the permit document as a revision submittal, when necessary. <br />Regrading or Stabilizing Rills and Gullies <br />Seeded areas will be monitored following spring snowmelt and heavy rains. If monitodng indicetes the <br />presence of excessive rills and gullies, closer observation will be used to determine the cause of the <br />gullying. These areas will be identified on a map. <br />Natural geomorphic processes in the redaimed area will be emphasized, taking into account the slope, <br />aspect, and soil conditions of the site. Further consideration will be given to the normal climatic patterns and <br />rate of vegetation establishment and development in the subject area. Evaluation will indude whether the <br />dlis and gullies will prohibit successful revegetation or will disrupt the achievement of the postmining land <br />use. <br />Based on this evaluation, several options will be available to correct the situation, These options will be a <br />• direct resuR of studying the situation and selecting the option that will best rectify the erosional problem. <br />One or more of the following options and corrective methods will be employed. <br />TR-37 13-27 Revised 04/05 <br />
