RULE 2 PERMITS <br />. Reapplied topsoil will be lefr in a rough condition to control wind and water erosion prior to seeding. <br />Seedbed preparation, other surface manipulation practices, and seeding will be completed primazily <br />during the fall months. Contour furrows, approximately 4-12 inches deep at the deepest point and 20-36 <br />inches wide, which have been used on slope areas very successfully during the past years, will be used on <br />as needed to reduce erosion potential, conserve moisture, and maintain site stability until vegetation is <br />sufficiently established. The size of the furrows may be increased if necessary to control erosion, and the <br />distance between the furrows will vary, depending on each application. Small rock check dams may also <br />be used where appropriate to aid in control of erosion both prior to seeding and if necessary, afrer an area <br />has been seeded. <br />2.05.4 (2) (e) Reclamation Revegetation <br />Revegetation techniques described in Volume 1, Section 2.05.4 will be employed at the South Taylor <br />mining area. <br />2.05.4(£ h) Disposal, Mine Openings, Water and Air Control <br />These topics are discussed in the original permit starting at page 2.05-57. There will be no substantive <br />changes to the approaches already employed for these topics. <br />2.05.5 Post-Mining Land Uses <br />The reclamation plan described in Section 2.05.4 will be implemented to restore the proposed disturbed <br />areas associated with the South Taylor mining areas to the pre-mining use of rangeland. The proposed <br />• land use of rangeland for these areas is identical to the pre-mining use. Specifically, Colowyo proposes to <br />reclaim the mined areas to a rangeland condition capable of supporting both domestic livestock and <br />wildlife.
