THE INFORMATION ON THIS PAGE DOES NOT NEED TO BE HELD CONFIDENTIAL <br /> Exhibit C-AMSO,LLC Notice of Intent Supplemental information <br /> • B. Describe the method for bed re aration and application method or ass/orb <br /> .f „ P P � PP .f �' .� <br /> seeding: <br /> The seed bed in all reclamation areas will be prepared by scarifying,tilling, <br /> harrowing, or roughening the surface of the replaced topsoil prior to seeding where <br /> needed to improve revegetation potential. All disturbed areas will be reseeded with <br /> certified weed-free seed mixes. The Rolling Loam areas will be reseeded with Native <br /> Seed Mix#2, and the Pinyon-Juniper Woodland areas will be reseeded with Native <br /> Seed Mix#3. The seed mixtures will be range drilled or broadcast to achieve the <br /> application rate specified in"Section A,"above. <br /> To prevent erosion,certified weed-free straw mulch,or mulch derived from chipping <br /> woody material salvaged during clearing operations,will be applied over seeded areas <br /> at a rate of 2,000 lbs/acre and crimped in. If necessary,permanent erosion control <br /> measures, such as geotextile fabrics may be installed. Reseeding operations will take <br /> into account environmental factors such as seasonal patterns of precipitation, <br /> temperature, and wind; soil texture and fertility; slope stability and the direction the <br /> slope faces. If it is determined that the topsoil material is deficient in nutrients, <br /> fertilizer will be added. <br /> After vegetation has been reestablished to pre-project levels and all disturbed areas <br /> have been finally stabilized,any soil that has accumulated in the drainage system will <br /> • be removed and temporary BMPs, such as silt fences and straw bale check dams,will <br /> be removed. <br /> References: <br /> Coffm,D.L.,F.A.Welder,and R.K.Glanzman. 1971.
