No mulching is planned for these small areas, however, a cover crop will be seeded as a surface <br />stabilization measure. Management and maintenance activities will include any necessary repair <br />of rills or gullies (detailed at the end of this section), reseeding, or grazing management. Grazing <br />management will be centered on the proper use by livestock of the dryland pasture areas in relation <br />to the associated irrigated pasture. These areas will initially be irrigated by water cannon for the <br />first 3 years to insure successful establishment of the dryland pasture. They will not be irrigated <br />after the initial three year period. Dryland pasture will only receive an initial fertilizer application at <br />the time of seeding. <br />Additional Revegetation Measures <br />Shrubs and bushes are not planned to be planted because of the post mining land use. The <br />owners of the reclaimed land (both 1987 and 1999) do not want shrubs or bushes in their fields. <br />Shrubs would interfere with their farm activities. WFC does anticipate volunteer willows to grow <br />in low lying swales and drainage channels adjacent to sediment ponds. <br />Table 2.05.4(2)(e) -1 and Table 2.05.4(e) -2 represents the estimated acreage of the various <br />reclaimed vegetation types to be established within the New Horizon 2 Mine area for 1987 and <br />1999 respectively. Also included are 9.23 acres of replaced county road. Table 2.05.4(2)(e) -3 are <br />the various vegetation types within the existing (1987) and amended (1999) disturbance areas for <br />both pre -mine baseline vegetation and post -mine revegetation. Map 2.05.4(e) -1 indicated where <br />the various post -mine vegetation types will occur. Map 2.05.4 -4 shows the replacement depths of <br />topsoil. <br />Revegetation Standards and Procedures for Testing for Successful Reclamation <br />Irrigated Hayland Type One area of irrigated hayland will be established on reclaimed land in <br />the original permit and one on the amended area (Morgan property) within the New Horizon permit <br />area. These areas occur in the southwestern portion of the permit areas (SE1 /4 NW1 /4, Section <br />6 T. 46N., R.15W.) and (NE1 /4, NE1 /4, Sec. 1, T.46N., R.16W.) respectively. The first are will be <br />reclaimed to a grass dominated hayland and the Morgan area will be reclaimed to a alfalfa <br />dominated hayland (seed mix #7) as detailed earlier. Because of marginal site conditions and <br />shallow soils, grass hayland was chosen as the land use for the first site. Alfalfa dominated <br />hayland was chosen for the second site as Morgan currently has the pasture in alfalfa hayland. <br />(Revised 1- 15 -03) 2.05.4(2)(e) - 12 <br />Rm oved <br />
