~7 <br />weeds will be sprayed in the spring with White Top and fall germinating annuals oC' <br />perennial weeds will be sprayed in with Russian knapweed in the fall. <br />Tamarisk and Russian Olives: On land not under reclamation prior to January 19`h, 2005 <br />Whitewater will begin control efforts on Tamarisk and Russian Olives. These control <br />efforts will consist of annual chemical treatments or mechanical means where effective to <br />control Tamazisk or Russian Olives to densities that do not exceed pre disturbed levels or <br />densities less than surrounding property. Garton 4 plus JLB + oil is the most common <br />chemical to treat freshly cut stumps but we do not feel that lazger older growth trees will <br />be an issue on disturbed land. Gazlon 4 can also be used as a basal bazk spray on smaller <br />di~uneter, smooth bark stems throughout the year. Foliaz sprays such as Arsenal or <br />Habitat will kill many surrounding plants and therefore will have limited use once <br />planting of an azea has commenced. Mechanical means such as mulching, root plowing <br />or blading of slopes and disturbed areas may be an effective control measure and will <br />include a herbicide application to resprouts if the process doesn't remove the root ball of <br />the plant. Whitewater will utilize these and other means to manage these species. <br />ONGOING WEED MANAGEMENT: <br />Whitewater will continue to monitor all their effected lands under Division of Minerals <br />and Geology regulation to identify new weed species and proper control efforts. <br />Reviewed by~ <br />udi~rota / <br />Mesa County Horticulture Pest & Weed Inspector <br />
