Box 1790 <br />Ouray, Colorado 81427 <br />RE: Topsoil Stockpile Stabilization Seed Mix, Camp Bird Mine, <br />Permit No. M-82-090 <br />Dear Mr. Bar: ~L ;,~~ <br />pF Cpl <br />e ' ~~ <br />„ %`~8 <br />Roy Romer, <br />Governor <br />Fretl R. Banta, <br />Division Duectar <br />On July 16, 1990 John Doerfer and I inspected the Camp Bird Mine. We had <br />observed that the topsoil stockpile near the access road had begun to show <br />signs of erosion, leading possibly to increased sedimentation of Canyon <br />Creek. We discussed that this stockpile should be seeded to prevent erosion <br />problems, and you had asked us to provide an appropriate seed mix that could <br />work at the mine's elevation of 9900'. <br />I discussed the situat ion with Gregg Squire of our Division, whose expertise <br />includes revegetation seed mixes. Gregg has recommended the following: <br />Species <br />Broadcast Rate <br />lbs PLS/Acre <br />Intermediate Wheatgrass <br />Mountain Brame <br />Timothy <br />Kentucky Bluegrass <br />Cicer Milkvetch <br />6.0 <br />6.0 <br />6.0 <br />6.0 <br />2.0 <br />After broadcasting this mix, you should either hand rake the seed into the <br />soil to about a 1/2" depth, or you should hydromulch the area with a wood <br />fiber mulch. <br />Please call me if you Ytave any questions. <br />Sincerely, <br />~~ '/ <br />Daniel I.
