Reseeding of disturbed soil must establish eighty percent cover in three years. If 80 percent cover is not established the Grantee Company shall reseed as specified above.

Wyoming Mix 1 Sagebrush Steppe/Sagebrush Scrub Communties The sagebrush steppe and sagebrush scrub communities occur in semi-arid areas (10 to 14 inch precipitation) on gently sloping (1 to 8 percent) terrain at elevations from about 5,700 to 7,500 feet. In the project area, they occur throughout much of central and western Wyoming (MPs 88 to 266). Sagebrush steppe is distinguished from sagebrush scrub by containing greater than 50 percent understory of grasses and forbs. Both of these communities are dominated by big sagebrush. Other common species include: broom snakeweed, rabbitbrush, prickly pear cactus, mountain mahogany, ephedra, fourwing saltbrush, winterfat, blue grama, bottlebrush squirreltail, Indian ricegrass, needlegrasses, and western wheatgrass Energy / Mineral Exploration Activities on Wyoming Game and Fish Commission Lands. 19

If aquatic invasive species are found, the equipment will need to be decontaminated Governor's Executive Order Greater Sage-Grouse Core Area Protection This lease is issued subject to, and conditioned upon lessee's acknowledgement and agreement that any exploration and development activities undertaken shall be done in compliance with all terms and conditions of the Governor's Executive titled Greater Sage-Grouse Core Area Protection.
