<br />Table 3.6-4. OSD4 Soil Conservation Service (1977) recd mecdations for seeding sites in Moffat CA)unty in Zone <br />III (refer to Figure 3.6-1). <br />Characteristics of 7one III: <br />Precipitation - Moderately moist, from 15 to 20 inches. Climate - Moderately cold. <br />Elevation - Fran 6,500 to 9,000 feet. <br />Nearly all soils in this wne are deep. About 70 percent of the zone consists of soils that have dark <br />colored loan surface layers and loan or clay loan subsoils. Lime is generally at a depth of about 20 to 30 <br />inches. Other important deep soils are those having thin loan or clay loan surface layers about 4 to 6 <br />inches thick and clay loan or clay subsoils. These soils are formed fran shale derived materials. 8nall <br />areas of deep loany soils having thin, dark loan surface layers aid loan or clay loan subsoils are also <br />present. <br />Growth Dcposure Seeding rate Palatability Special Motes and <br />Species and varieties habit(1) (2) PLS7acre (4) conditions remarks <br />w Grasses <br />Basin wildrye (17) NB N 11 Moderate <br />bearded wheatgrass NB IS (20) Moderate <br />big bluegrass NS N 2 High <br />bloebunch wheatgrass (17) NB 15 19 High <br />Ohlunbla needlegrass NB IS (20) High <br />crested wiieatgrass (Mordant) IB NS 10 Moderate <br />Fairwr y ?heatgrass (Fairway) IB MS 6 Low <br />green needlegrass (Lodorm) NB NS 10 High <br />hard fescue (Ducar) IB 15 8 LOW <br />Idaho fescue NB NS (20) High <br />Indian ricegrass (Palana) NB NS 12.5 High <br />intermediate wheatgrass (Oahe/Anur) LS 1S 20 Moderate <br />prairie Junegrass NB NS (20) Moderate <br />Kentucky bluegrass is N 1 High <br />nuttongrass NB IS (20) High <br />Shady Areas <br />(5)(7) <br />(5)(6) <br />(6)(19) <br />(5)(6)(19) <br />(5)(6) <br />(6) <br />(5)(6)(19) <br />(5)(6) <br />(5)(6)(8) <br />(19) <br />(6) <br />(5) <br />(6)(19) <br />(5)(6) <br /> <br />cunt. next page.
