The report pertains to <br />the revegetation success of the test plots at the refuse area 1 (RP-1-. This is the second study conducted by <br />Greystone of Englewood, Colorado. <br />Pages 11-20 of the report summarize the results of the study. Greystone has concluded the following: <br />• The vegetative stand has matured a great deal compared to the 1992 survey which is apparent by <br />a significant increase in perennial grass cover. <br />• In general, the vegetative cover is higher with lower soil depth (see Table 8). This result may have <br />occurred due to some other factors. <br />• There is a lack of woody plants. <br />• Production sampling was done for the first time. It shows that the plots are in transition to a self <br />sustaining stand of vegetation. Production was the greatest on plots with the lease cover depths <br />(see Table 8) which may be due to some other controlling factors. <br />WFU will conduct the third study in the summer of 1995. In the meantime if DMG has any questions or comments, <br />please let me know. <br />Sincerely, /~,/ <br />Murari P.
