These common weeds actually constitute <br />most of what little soil cover the spoil piles support, <br /> <br />Until the spoil piles are permanently reclaimed, the existing weeds should probably be <br />left in place to provide whatever soil-stabilizing benefit they can. The Grand County <br />Noxious Weed Supervisor has recommended that stabilization and revegetation activities <br />be implemented at the time of placement so that topsoil or spoil piles do not become a <br />nuisance and a medium for the establishment of noxious weeds (Sumerlin 2003). It was <br />also recommended that, under certain circumstances in which revegetation cannot be <br />timely accomplished, [pre-emergent] herbicides be applied. This is a less-preferred <br />alternative from a resource standpoint because it allows for ongoing erosional processes. <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />Williams Fork ReservOIr <br />Hydroelectnc Projet'! <br />Jnnuary 2004 <br /> <br />Stelgers Corporation <br />NoxIous Weed Survey Report <br /> <br />Page II <br />
