The Adams County Plan states: Cooperation from all landowners/occupants regarding timely noxious weed management will be encouraged via positive communication and education efforts. The Weed Office or its agent will continue to apply herbicides to a limited acreage of noxious weeds on private lands by landowner or tenant request consistent with County policies. Where noxious weeds are still found, an enforcement process will be initiated to ensure control of the Weeds. According to the Policy, landowners in Adams County are required to manage noxious weed infestations. The policy also outlines criteria for county officials to inspect for noxious weed infestations on public and private land and identifies methods of notification to landowners if an infestation is found to occur and it requires that the notified landowner comply with the terms of the notification and the policy. If the landowner does not comply with the terms, the county may access the property and undertake the management of noxious weeds. In this case, the Policy outlines a method for the county to recover costs of management. Tucson South Sand and Gravel Mine—Brighton,Colorado 5
