Pacific aster (Native) <br />Chokecherry (Native) <br />Serviceberry (Native) <br />Mountain snowberry (Native) <br />Antelope bitterbrush (Native) <br />Total PLS <br />0.10 <br />1.0 <br />0.50 <br />0.50 <br />1.0 <br />18.5 (double for broadcast seeding) <br />The rangeland seed mixture has been used to seed disturbance areas at the Seneca II and <br />Yoast mines. It lends itself to rapid and long-term surface stabilization, ease of <br />establishment, maximum use of native species, high levels of utility for livestock and <br />wildlife, good forage production potential, compatibility with naturally regenerating native <br />species present in replaced topsoil and the ability to be self-sustaining. CDOW has requested <br />that PSCM add Mountain Big Sagebrush (Artemisia tridentate Ssp. vaseyana) in the <br />rangeland seed mixture (0.25 PLS/acre). PSCM will discuss this request with each surface <br />owner. <br />The seed mixtures PSCM proposes to use on the private surface have previously been <br />approved by the surface estate owners under access agreement negotiated as part of the 2008 <br />exploration program (approved under X-2009-229-01). <br />6) Threatened or Endangered Species <br />Review by the CDOW did not identify any potentially impacted Threatened or Endangered <br />(T&E) species or associated habitats requiring avoidance or specific mitigation measures. <br />CDOW's consultation is provided in Appendix C. <br />The exploration and reclamation activities will not jeopardize the continued existence of an <br />endangered or threatened species listed pursuant to Section 4 of the Endangered Species Act <br />of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1533) or the Nongame, Endangered or Threatened Species Conservation <br />Act (Section 33-8-101 et. seq. C.R.S.) or result in the destruction or adverse modification of <br />critical habitat of those species. <br />7) Confidential Materials <br />PSCM has not requested that any material in this Exploration NOI be considered <br />confidential. <br />PSCM 2011 NOI 21 April 2010
