A C) 0 <br />RPM, Inc. <br />We would also like to propose a slight revision to the wetlands reclamation seed mix. Besides <br />the existing species listed in the text of the Reclamation Plan Amendment Application and on the <br />Reclamation Plan Map, Exhibit F, we would like to include intermediate wheatgrass (variety <br />Tegmar). We propose to revise the seeding rate for bluejoint reedgrass as shown in the <br />following table. All other drill seeding rates will be as previously approved for the Hogue River <br />Pit. <br />Proposed Modification to the Wetlands Seed Mix: <br />Species PLS/Acre Percent of Mix <br />Tufted Hairgrass 3.0 18.7 <br />Red Fescue 3.0 18.7 <br />Creeping Wild Rye 3.0 18.7 <br />Bluejoint Reedgrass* 0.03 .002 <br />Intermediate Wheatgrass** 7.0 43.7 <br />Total 16.03 99.8 <br />* The NRCS Plant Guide recommends between .03 and .06 PLS/acre due to the plant material <br />cost. <br />**Arkansas Valley Seed recommends between 7 and 10 PLS/acre. The NRCS Plant Guide <br />recommends between 10 and 12 PLS/acre. <br />A copy of this information is being sent by certified mail to the Routt County Clerk for <br />placement with the Hogue River Pit Amendment Application. <br />Encl: (1) Plant Fact Sheet for bluejoint reedgrass, (2) Plant Guide for intermediate wheatgrass, <br />(3) Revised Reclamation Map, Exhibit F, (4) Spreadsheet for ground water pond surface area <br />calculation, (5) Well Permit No. 042066-F approval with Conditions of Approval.
