techniques. Results of the analysis will be maintained by the mine and/or Division <br /> offices. <br /> Qualitative monitoring for fertility will also be done on all reclaimed areas as part of <br /> the ongoing revegetation success monitoring during the period of liability. Qualitative <br /> monitoring for fertility will include unscheduled visual observations of plant communities <br /> throughout the reclamation area. More specific visual observations in conjunction with <br /> soil sampling will be conducted at representative revegetation transect locations. <br /> Literature Cited <br /> Arnold, F.B. and D.J.
