Several of the realign- ment portions of Area #18 (B1-B10) will be fenced during the Spring of 1986 to enhance the re-establishment of the tuberling stock and the cur- rent grasses. This effort is being made to reduce the damage caused by grazing cattle. 4. Vegetative restocking species, locations, and dates of planting. The areas mentioned in #2 above were seeded with the mixture required for these areas in Exhibit E - Reclamation Plan. Seeding was done in Septem- ber and October 1985. 5. On the areas mentioned in #2 above, commercial fertilizer (Co-Op 20-20-9) was spread at the prescribed rate after recontouring was completed in Sep- tember 1985. 6. Formal success ratios on all areas revegetated since 1980 will be complete in the spring field season of 1986. This will be done in conjunction with the "survey staking and fencing" project mentioned in #3 above. 7. No additional acreage disturbances are expected. Initial reclamation ef- forts on additional "disturbed areas" will begin as facilities removal allows.
