• 11. Re-Seed and Mulch the Packrat Portal Area <br />Once re-topsoiling is complete, the area must be immediately seeded and mulched because the Packrat <br />Road will be removed, preventing future access to the site by vehicle. Seeding and mulching will be <br />done by broadcast methods using the seed mix described below in Table E-2: <br />Table E-2 Reclamation Seed Mix: <br />'~i"~ T.h <br />Rincon or Native Four Wing Saltbush c P11AP T.iva CaPrl nPr arra <br />2.0 <br />Lutana Cicer Milkvetch 0.2 <br />Cedar Palmer Penstemon 0.1 <br />Lewis Flax 0.5 <br />Hachita Blue Grama 0.3 <br />Needle and Threadgrass 1.6 <br />Paloma Indian Ricegrass 1.4 <br />Nordan Crested Wheatgrass 1.0 <br />Luna Pubescent Wheatgrass 2.0 <br />Primar Slender Wheatgrass 1.3 <br />• Arriba Western Wheatgrass 1.8 <br />Total 12.2 <br />The rates above are for dill seeding. Seed application rates will be doubled when using broadcast <br />methods. <br />Certified weed free hay or straw mulch will be applied after seeding at the rate of 2,000 lbs per acre. <br />This mulch will be applied manually given the restricted access to this site and the undulating surface <br />created by pocking. <br />12. Partial Backfilling and Grading of Packrat Road <br />The Packrat Road is apre-existing road that was cut from the hillside in order to provide access to the <br />early operation of the Packrat Mine, which started decades ago. During construction of the road, rock <br />and soil excavated from the road cut were side cast downslope to create the full width of the road. The <br />• road was previously reclaimed by ripping and seeding the road surface and installing water bars. <br />YVhirlwind Mine 07 (rev. April 08) E-11 <br />
