during the first season. After the first season, and depending on the size of the management unit <br />and availability of additional management units, grazing may be implemented. f rvesting will <br />• continue to be considered as a management option if grazing is not implemented h any given <br />year. Harvested hay will be removed from the fields as rapidly as hay quay. and weather <br />conditions permit. <br />5.0 Revegetation Methods - Dryland Pasture (DP) <br />The dryland pasture type will be established in areas which were previously sagebrush rangeland <br />on the 1987 Travessitta-Pinon soils and on 1999 soil map units 986, 98C, and 98H (see Map <br />2.04.9-1). It also may be established on former irrigated lands that do not have sufficient water <br />for future irrigation. <Alt Lough attempted in the: asf, irri"'ation W 11 n t be;.eMployed one°,drylarfd <br />Lpafl <br />FQ? <br />?- ck <br />Seed Mix #8 has been developed to provide a mix of species that are compatible with the adjacent <br />irrigated pasture type, has a high level of utility, and will provide long term protection of the V_? <br />resource. <br />c?L Vg's ' <br />• The above varieties are preferred but do not constitute the only available adapted varieties. Seed <br />? <br />availability problems associated with the above recommended varieties will require that the next <br />r' <br />best adapted variety or native/common types be used. The alternate selections will-be made from` rr* <br />regional sources. <br />Species selection criteria centered on species that are drought tolerant, reasonably productive <br />under semiarid conditions, able to provide site stabilization, able to withstand grazing pressure, <br />and have utility for livestock and. wildlife. The seed variety and mixture is commonly"used in this <br />region and was reviewed by the local Soil Conservation Service. <br />All species are introduced, however these are the best available species for the postmine land use <br />andare necessary. and desirable to achieve the intended use. <br />PR-06 Oct 09 2.05.4(2)(e) - 24
