The rate of production for 1984 wa:~ 24,200 <br />tons per day on a 21-day-per-month schedule. Our work force at <br />the end of December 1984 was 897 with an average of 822 pr~r month <br />for the year. <br />Reclamation proceeded as described in the Timetable (Section <br />5) and the Reclamation Plan (Section 9). Species planted during <br />1984 were those originally listed in the Reclamation Plan and <br />appropriate additions mentioned in previous annual reports. <br />Materials used in the reclamation effort this year were 350 pounds <br />of fertilizer, 175 pounds of grass seed, and five pounds of mixed <br />wildflower and lodgepole pine seed. Precipitation was above <br />average throughout the growing season and revegetatecl areas <br />responded accordingly. <br />RECLAMATION AREA ACTIVITIES <br />Reclamation of disturbances as they occur and efforts to <br />minimize disturbance by planning and reduction of unnecessziry uses <br />continue to be our aim. Treatment in Areas 9 and 12 demonstrate <br />our adherence to this guideline. <br />Area 9 <br />Another bench and slope on tailing dam number one was covered <br />with soil salvaged from within the tailing basin. 15,000 cubic <br />yards of soil was placed to an average depth of one :Foot in <br />September and October, and the 8 1/2 acre area was reseeded. <br />
