TASK 4 REVEGETATION <br /> The goal of this project is to apply fertilizer, seed and mulch to the slopes which were scarified <br /> during performance of Task 2, Scarification. All fertilization, seeding and mulching will be done in <br /> such a manner so that all portions of the outslopes and roadside cut and fill slopes receive the <br /> correct amount of these materials per acre, and in a manner so that the materials are evenly <br /> distributed over the slopes. <br /> Aerial application of fertilizer, seed and/or mulch is acceptable, provided appropriate ground <br /> control is provided. See aerial application requirements at the end of Task 4, Revegetation. <br /> Table 1 , Mine Site Seed Mixture specifies the seed and application rate for the road cut and fill <br /> slopes, and repair areas of the mine and fan benches and roads. Table 2, Outslope Seed <br /> Mixture, specifies the seed and application rate for the mine and fan bench outslopes. <br /> It is estimated that there are forty nine (49) acres to be revegetated during performance of this <br /> Project, excluding reclamation repair areas. Twenty one (21) acres will be seeded with the <br /> Outslope Seed Mixture, while twenty eight (28) acres will be seeded with the Mine Site Seed <br /> Mixture. <br /> Due to site conditions. no reveoetation efforts may be initiated prior to September 14, 1998. <br /> In addition to the revegetation specifications outlined in Section 20.0 attached, the following <br /> requirements will be adhered to: <br /> Mine Bench Outslopes <br /> Seed <br /> The seed listed in Table 2, Outslope Seed Mixture, will be provided by the OWNER. The <br /> CONTRACTOR must give the PROJECT MANAGER at least ten (10)working days notice of the <br /> acreage to be seeded, so that the proper amount of seed is delivered. <br /> Seed application rate will be at the rate specified in Table 2, Outslope Seed Mixture. In addition <br /> to the seed listed in Table 2, the native seed which was collected in Task 2, Native Seed <br /> Collection, will be applied to the outslopes. The native seed shall be applied at five pounds (5*) <br /> per acre of Calamagrostis (Sp?) and two and one half pounds (2.5#) each of Senecio and Aster <br /> glaucodes seed per acre. <br /> Fertilizers <br /> Fertilizer shall be provided by the CONTRACTOR, and shall conform to Section 20.2 <br /> (commercial fertilizer) of the Revegetation Specifications, attached. Fertilizer shall be applied as <br /> per the attached specifications. <br /> Seedbed Preparation <br /> Seedbed preparation was accomplished on these slopes during performance of Task 3, Slope <br /> Scarification. <br /> 11 <br />
