2.05.4(2)(e) <br />~, <br />The third seed mix will be used to revegetate the disturbed areas mapped as <br />Juniper Woodland and Mixed Shrub. Although both communities were shrub <br />dominated, the seed mix will reflect the reclamation goal of establishing an herb <br />dominated community more than the original composition of the communities. <br />Additionally, species that have been noted as being successfully established at <br />nearby reclaimed areas in the Blue Ribbon, Bear 1 & 2, and North Thompson <br />Creek mine sites have been included. Although emphasis has been placed on <br />reestablishing an herbaceous community, shrubs will be seeded to reestablish a <br />balanced community. Reestablishing a highly diverse community using locally <br />important species where possible was stressed. The mix is listed below. Two or <br />more of the optional species will be included in the seed mix at a rate of 6 PLS/ft2. <br />The optional species that will be selected will be at the operator's discretion. <br />The third seed mix will also be used to revegetate the minor disturbance <br />associated with the vent shaft pad and light use road located in Freeman Gulch <br />and gob vent borehole pads and associated light use roads. <br />Seed Mix No. 3 -Upland Mix POUNDS PLS/ <br />Species Name (VARIETlr7 Common Name ACRE <br />Grasses <br />Elymus lanceolatus thickspike wheatgrass 2.5 <br />Elymus lanceolatus ssp. psammophilus streambank wheatgrass 1.5 <br />Elymus trachycaulus ssp. trachycaulus slender wheatgrass 1.0 <br />Agropyron smithii (ARRIBA) Western wheatgrass 1.4 <br />Elymus cinereus (TRAILHEAD) Great Basin wildrye 1.2 <br />Festuca ovine (COVAR) Sheep fescue 0.2 <br />Achnatherum hymenoides Indian ricegrass 0.95 <br />Poa canbyi, Stipa viridula Green needlegrass 0.88 <br />Forbs <br />Artemisia ludoviciana (SUMMIT) Prairie sage 0.1 <br />Aster glaucodes Blueleaf aster 0.3 <br />Astragalus cicer (LUTANA) Cicer milkvetch 1.1 <br />Linum lewisii (APPAR) Lewis flax 0.5 <br />Medicago sativa (NOMAD) Alfalfa 0.7 <br />Sanguisorba minor (DELAR) Small Burnet 2.8 <br />Shrubs <br />Amelanchier alnifolia Serviceberry 4.8 <br />Atriplex canescens Fourwing saltbrush 2.4 <br />Purshia tridentate Antelope bitterbrush 8.3 <br />Rosa woodsii Wood's rose 2.7 <br />Artemisia tridentate vaseyana Mountain Big Sagebrush 0.1 <br />TR-46 2.05 - 51 - 05/08 <br />A .PP~au~o <br />/~/o g <br />
