These maps show details of the two areas <br /> in question for ponding as discussed during the bond release inspection December <br />' 17, 1987. In both areas, the grade is slight but <br />these maps as overlays of the proposed final cont still positive. Using <br />ours map, there are a few <br /> locations where undisturbed areas have different contours. Refer to Drawing <br /> Nos. D-4-15 & 16 for limits of reclamation. <br /> <br /> The attached 1987 Mine Site Soil Sample and Seed Mix Locations map is included <br /> to show where soil sampling was done and the area s where each seed mix was <br /> used. Each soil sample was a composite of 6-10 s mall samples in the general <br />' area marked. Results of these soil samples and t he fertilizer recommendations <br /> are included (September 23, 1987, Soils Report). Copies of seed mix tags <br /> are enclosed to define the seed mix numbers shown on the map. These were <br /> a few substitutions in the seed mixes due to the availability of seed.' The <br /> actual application rates specified to the seeding contractor were: <br /> #1 Mix Broadcast Rate 40#/acre <br />' Drill Rate 20#/acre <br /> #2 Mix Broadcast Rate 58#/acre <br />' Drill Rate <br />#3 Mix Broadcast Rate 29#/acre <br />53#/acre <br /> Drill Rate 26.5#/acre <br /> Fertilizer Amonium Nitrate 75#/acre <br />' 18-45-0 75#/acre <br /> The #4 seed mix was used at the truck dump. The original plan at the dirt berm <br /> was not to revegetate the area because it would be part of a feed lot. Later <br />' a decision was made to plant seed mix #2 at this location. No soil samples were <br /> taken at these sites. The application rates used at these sites were: <br /> #2 Mix Drill Rate 20#/acre <br /> #4 Mix Broadcast Rate 60#/acre <br /> <br />
