CC&V: 2016 Weed Management Report <br />Squaw Gulch was treated from the sediment ponds northwest of Shelf Road to Teller County Road <br />88. The basin of Squaw Gulch was treated for extensive, dense infestations of Canada thistle, <br />common mullein and musk thistle. Isolated infestations of field bindweed, Dalmatian toadflax and <br />yellow toadflax were also treated in these areas. Treatments were concentrated around the <br />sediment ponds, along the Shelf Road corridor, and open space adjacent to Teller County Road <br />88. <br />Newmont environmental directed the treatment of electrical transformers using a ground sterilant. <br />A sterilant was applied to the ground to eradicate growth of vegetation, and prevent further <br />vegetation from germinating within the immediate perimeter of transformer locations. <br />Transformers located at the Main Mine facilities, Phase 5 and the Crusher facilities were treated. <br />Second Treatment Session <br />The second treatment took place from September 20 through September 23, 2016. Treatments <br />began with applications of herbicides applied along the Vindicator trail system. This area has not <br />been previously treated by Habitat Management, and sporadic infestations of Canada thistle, <br />common mullein, musk thistle and yellow toadflax were targeted. Infestations were primarily <br />concentrated to the north and south trail heads, and areas immediately adjacent to the trail corridor. <br />Infestations outside the trail system corridor were left untreated. An extensive, densely infested <br />area of Canada thistle was treated above an access road from Rangeview Road to County Road 81, <br />between the towns of Victor and Goldfield. Canada thistle was in full flower and going to seed at <br />the time applications took place. Here, sporadic infestations of Canada thistle had spread from the <br />main concentration and were left untreated. <br />The Phase 5 slope was treated for extensive, dense infestations of Canada thistle, common mullein, <br />Dalmatian toadflax, musk thistle and yellow toadflax. Isolated, minor infestations of scotch thistle <br />were also treated in this area. The Phase 5 slope and facility areas above the Phase 5 slope was <br />aggressively treated during applications made earlier in the season, and infestations were found to <br />be less dense during applications made in September. The access road below the Phase 5 slope <br />was treated for minor infestations of common mullein, and infestations were noticeably less dense <br />compare to earlier treatments of the area. Sediment ponds and drainageways coming from the base <br />of the Phase 5 slope were treated for dense infestations of Dalmatian toadflax, common mullein <br />and musk thistle. This was thought to have come from an excessive seed bank washing down from <br />the Phase 5 slope. The lower section of Phase 5 slope was not treated due to inaccessibility with <br />the UTV mounted spray rig. <br />The AD -R2 reclamation area along Highway 67 was treated for the first time during the second <br />session. Sporadic infestations of Dalmatian toadflax and musk thistle were treated in the area. <br />Dense infestations of common mullein were treated in the west corner and the southwest side of <br />the main facilities building. Common mullein infestations spread along the west side of the main <br />facilities building and was left untreated. Desirable vegetation had begun to colonize the <br />reclamation area, and noxious weeds were treated prior to flowering. thus, minimizing the potential <br />buildup of noxious weed seed in the soil. <br />Mrs. Beards reclamation area was treated for extensive, dense infestations of common mullein, <br />and frequent infestations of Dalmatian toadflax and musk thistle. Sporadic infestations of Canada <br />thistle were treated along the drainageway and low laying areas below Highway 67. Access to the <br />upper slope was difficult, and due to windy conditions, the upper section of the slope was not <br />treated at this time. Common mullein was treated prior to its boulting stages of growth; however, <br />Habitat Management, Inc. 4 December 27, 2016 <br />
