If the seed is drilled, one -half <br />(1/2) the broadcast rate will be used. <br />Timing for the placement of seed will be directly following placement of the soil cover, <br />and prior to the cover material forming a hard crust. Preferably this will be in either the <br />spring or fall, but experience indicates that getting the seed on the soil cover material <br />soon after placement of the soil cover material is more important than the time of year the <br />seed is placed to the success of the seeding effort. <br />Re- vegetation efforts on the disturbed areas will be considered satisfactory when: <br />• Soil erosion resulting from the operation has been stabilized; and <br />• A vegetative cover at least equal to that present prior to the disturbance has been <br />established. <br />
