In the January 29, 2009 adequacy letter, the Division summarized previous <br />DOW/DRMS requests regarding the requirement, justification, and approaches <br />for inclusion of a limited acreage of tall shrub and aspen establishment areas in <br />future areas to be disturbed. Disturbance to date has impacted mountain shrub <br />habitats and proposed future disturbance in the South Taylor mining area will <br />disturb aspen woodland as well as mountain shrub habitats (both areas also <br />disturb big sagebrush habitat, which is the primary focus of wildlife habitat <br />revegetation efforts). The letter included the following specific request: <br />Please review previous letters from DRMS and DOW regarding this matter, <br />and provide detailed plans for the establishment of both thick soil <br />(aspen/chokecherry/serviceberry etc) planting sites and thin/rocky soil <br />(serviceberry, bitterbrush, etc.) planting sites. In our most recent meeting <br />with DOW staff, Jon Wangnild indicated that provision of a larger number <br />of smaller tall shrub and aspen planting sites would be acceptable, in lieu <br />of the two relative large planting areas that DOW had requested in their <br />April 2008 letter. This would also be acceptable to DRMS.
