Site Reclamation Activity <br /> 4/95 - 3/96 <br /> Page 8 <br /> 3) usage of the borrow area as required for capping material . As <br /> used and brought to the final contour, this area will be <br /> seeded with the Mountain Mix and the final upland diversion <br /> will be established. <br /> TAILINGS POND 13 AREA - Plate No. 3 <br /> Activity at this site consisted of; <br /> 1) additional fertilization, amendment with limestone, seeding <br /> and mulching of the sideslopes. This area is finally starting <br /> to become vegetated. Fertilization was with liquid fertilizer <br /> ( 32-0-0) at 50 gallons per acre, seeding with the Mountain Mix <br /> at 22 lbs pls/acre adding limestone amendment at 3 tons per <br /> acre and hay mulch at 1 ton/acre. The steeper sideslopes were <br /> also covered with netting to keep the mulch in place. <br /> 2) planting of trees and shrubs across the site. <br /> Planned activity for 1996 includes; <br /> 1) monitoring and maintenance of the vegetation. <br /> TAILINGS POND #1 and TAILINGS POND 12 - Plate No. 3 <br /> Activity at this site during the 1995 reporting year consisted of; <br /> 1) selective fertilization and replanting areas where vegetation <br /> is sparse. These areas were fertilized with liquid fertilizer <br /> (32-0-0) at a rate of 50 gallons per acre, reseeded with the <br /> Mountain Mix (22 lbs pls per acre) and mulched with hay at 1 <br /> ton per acre. The probable cause of low vegetation coverage <br /> is the rock content in these areas as there is vegetation <br /> being supported by the relatively little (as compared to areas <br /> of higher vegetation cover) amount of growth media present. <br /> 2) planting of shrubs. <br />
