Rule 2:Permits <br /> availability and other factors. Of prime importance to changing seed,mixtures and rates will be <br /> the evaluation of initial revegetation success. <br /> Land Management <br /> Noxious Plant Control <br /> Mine disturbed areas will be monitored for infestations of Noxious Weeds, including Scotch and <br /> musk thistle, Canadian thistle,hounds tongue, and loco weed. <br /> Whenever practical, mechanical control (cutting,tilling, grazing, etc.)will be the control of <br /> preference. At adjacent mine sites,mechanical control of hounds tongue, loco weed, and Scotch <br /> and musk thistle has been found to be effective. <br /> More aggressive infestations have been effectively controlled with Roundup mixed @ 2.66 oz <br /> per gallon of water, applied directly on the plant. As this is a non-restricted pesticide/herbicide, <br /> Roundup will be the preferred method of chemical control for annual and biannual thistle <br /> infestations. <br /> Mechanical control of Canadian thistle, a perennial, generally is ineffective. Thus, Canadian <br /> thistle will be cotrolled by an application of either Milestone, Banvel (dicamba) or a combination <br /> of 0.5 qt. Banvel plus 1.0 qt. of 2,4-D where Banvel alone proves ineffective. <br /> The following table provides a list of target noxious weeds and Dr. Beck's (CSU) recommended <br /> herbicide. <br /> Noxious Weed Herbicide <br /> African rue (Class A weed) Polaris <br /> Diffuse knapweed Milestone <br /> Russian knapweed Milestone <br /> Spotted knapweed Milestone <br /> Leafy Spurge Tordon <br /> Dalmation toadflax Milestone <br /> Yellow toadflax Tordon <br /> Musk thistle Milestone <br /> Scotch thistle Milestone <br /> Canadian thistle Milestone <br /> Hounds tongue Milestone <br /> TR-20 2.05-71 2/28/2019 <br />
