Table 4.4-1 cont <br />• <br />Standard: <br />25% herbaceous cover and 22% litter (1)(2) <br />• .08 cover factor is based upon 25% herbaceous cover and 22% litter cover giving 47% effective <br />cover. <br />• Attached Table 4.4-3, SCS Tech. Note 50 (1982) was used to generate the above factor for cover. <br />The value assumes that shrubs do not contribute canopy cover, and the herbaceous species is (G). <br />• Litter cover factor is .459 of the total effective cover based on 1979 and 1985 premined data, Range <br />Site C, Table 2. <br />(1) The standards for cover assume that, at a minimum, the stated herbaceous cover standard will <br />be established for each range site. If more than the stated herbaceous cover value is achieved, <br />then the corresponding litter cover value may be decreased. <br />(2) The litter component counted toward meeting the cover standard shall not be artificially applied <br />material, but shall be derived from previous years plant production since seeding. <br />E <br />[HBHlb 5187 Retyped 5196] <br />• <br />4-105 <br />Revision: 1 2 - y <br />Approved: ..2/fs11S 8
