• The monitoring will consist of frequency measurements the <br />first growing season, herbaceous cover measurements and woody <br />plant density the second growing season and every third year <br />thereafter, unless monitoring indicates a need for corrective <br />action. The results of the vegetative monitoring will be <br />submitted to the Division in an Annual Report. <br />Response <br />During the summer of 1991, Colowyo completed vegetation <br />monitoring on the following areas: <br />A. Herbaceous Frequency and Density of the 1990 Revegetated <br />Area <br />B. Herbaceous Cover of the 1989 Revegetated Area <br />C. Woody Plant Density <br />Refer to Exhibit 14. 1991 Annual Report Man, for <br />additional details as to the location of these areas. <br />A. HERBACEOUS FREQUENCY AND DENSITY OF THE 1990 REVEGETATED <br />AREA <br />• The area seeded in the fall of 1990 was undergoing the <br /> first growing season. Past sampling methodologies continue to <br />be used to obtain vegetation data. Two hundred fifty <br />placements of a 30 cm X 60 cm frame was used and species <br />occurrence was recorded. <br />The data has been summarized and the top 20 species by <br />occurrence is presented in Table 2. 1990 Revegetated Area <br />Herbaceous Frequency and Density. The data indicates a <br />reasonably diverse, successful establishment of desirable <br />perennial grasses and forbs, as well as the expected number of <br />annual grasses and forbs. <br />• <br />10 <br />
