<br />WEED MANAGEMENT PLAN <br />Unmined Areas <br />These portions of the property will be maintained as pasture land and riparian corridor. <br />Minine Areas <br />Short Term <br />1) Replace topsoil and allow weeds to grow. <br />2) Kill weeds with a contact herbicide. Use Tordon (must be applied by a certified applicator <br />per manufacturer's instructions) as an initial chemical control in areas where there is no <br />threat of contaminating a water supply. In areas within six Feet of the water table, use <br />aquatic 24D or Rodeo. <br />3) Seed with cover crop (such as sterile sorghum). <br />4) Mow weeds and cover crop during the spring and summer to prevent them from producing <br />seed heads. <br />5) In the fall, kill the cover crop and weeds with an appropriate contact herbicide and drill <br />permanent dryland grass mixture in stubble. (We anticipate that the cover crop will take the <br />place of the mulch.) <br />Long Term <br />Monitor and control noxious weeds as they appear. Watch weeds to determine proper time to mow. <br />Mow property for firs[ growing season. The first season may require 2 to 3 or more mowings to <br />adequately control the weeds. ARer the grasses become established, chemicals may be used. <br />AGGREGATE INDUSTRIES, INC. - FREDSTROM SITE 112 PERMIT PAGE 130- <br />
