Review of the proposed substitutions, Utah sweetvetch in place of American <br />vetch, and Skunkbrush sumac, in place of Rocky Mountain maple, are acceptable and in agreement with Permit section <br />4.15.6. The Division concurs with the proposed species substitutions. Please be sure to report the seed mix used, and <br />rate of application with Colowyo's Annual Reclamation Report. <br />jav�tt H-. g�wws <br />Environmental Protection Specialist II <br />Colorado Division of Reclamation Mining and Safety <br />phone: (303) 866 -3567 ext. 8107 <br />fax: (303) 832 -8106 <br />From: Blunt, Kurtis (CCC) [ mailto :Kurtis.Blunt @riotinto.com] <br />Sent: Wednesday, October 05, 2011 7:49 AM <br />To: Binns, Janet <br />Subject: Proposed modifications to the Modified Sagebrush Steppe Mix for the Aspen/Tall Shrub Field Trials <br />Janet, <br />There are a couple of species unavailable in the currently approved field trial seed mix (American Vetch and Rocky <br />Mountain Maple). I'd like to propose replacing them with Utah Sweetvetch and Skunkbush Sumac respectively at the <br />same seeding rate. I have attached the approved mix and the description for what I'm proposing. I'd like to get the seed <br />ordered ASAP so we can be ready to proceed when the weather cooperates in the next couple of weeks. <br />Thanks for your assistance. <br />Kurt <br />Kurtis R.
