Gubk&- <br />wd•9W <br />D7O*V- 4204FRM <br />W0,3V 4W FAX <br />Upon assesament of the dryland pastures at the Weston Fuels Cool klfime new Nucla, Colorado, <br />it is my pe+ofessional judgment that it would be beneficial to inteseed gasses and fofbs into the <br />czmtm8 vegetabon usmB a ao-tW drill. <br />1t can be very difficuh to establish a dryland seedwg in a low poecion gone such as the <br />Nucla area, which reoavea y 12 hcJws of p per year. Tha bf% it is a <br />commas husbandry practice to follow up the initial seeding with additional seeding in <br />subsequent years in mxiw to establish the intended plants in sufficient dwskieL <br />To F=ave the plants that have become established, mteiseedmg into the existing vegetation <br />with a no drill is tha best practice fir accomplishing this: unless the first seeding was a <br />complete fiulur e, in which case it would be advantageous to prepare a good seedbed by disking <br />and harrowing, and then replant. <br />B may take three to five years, mdtiple seeding, and some timely rains before a mm msfnl <br />dryland seeding can become established. <br />ffyou have any Awther questions concerning my amessmm ofthe roclumed dryland pasmas an <br />the Western Fuels Coal Mme, please contact me. <br />Sincerely, _ <br />Jinn Boyd, MRCS Resource ('.omservationist <br />n.IWd Rwowo. coewaro. s w umft b Prawn v Aww PpN <br />rorwwmdSWkMrrral�mp*m jmW& AmEWdOpprhm*PsditmdIAgies <br />PR -06 May 2010 2.05.4(2)(e) -19 <br />
