A reference area has been established and sampled. The Division questions the wisdom of <br />switching the shrub density success standard from a reference area to a technical standard of <br />500 shrubs /acre. The advantage of a living reference area is to allow for changes through time <br />that a technical standard does not account for. Please explain in further detail why CAM would <br />prefer to have a technical standard for shrub density success over the reference area. <br />74a. A reference area is being used to determined the revegetation success on the reclaimed area. It <br />has not been demonstrated by the operator as per Rule 4.15.7(3), that the reference area is <br />statistically comparable to the disturbed area in terms of vegetative cover, herbaceous <br />production and shrub density. Please submit a statistical demonstration that the reference area <br />is equivalent to the proposed disturbed area. <br />
