RECLAMATIUN PLAN <br />Weed control should not 6e implemented unless the density of the weeds <br />is such that grass growth is severely stunted and grass density is very low <br />(less than an average of 2 grass plants per square foot). Chemical control is <br />preferred to mechanical control because mechanical control often maintains the <br />presence of many weeds. Most weeds thrive in mechanically disturbed <br />conditions. Moderate and low density weed growths will be left to run their <br />course. In most instances, moderate and low density weed growths will control <br />themselves in two to three years, if left alone. <br />In all instances where a designated noxious weed is found on the site at <br />a concentration that, in the opinion of local conservation experts, poses a <br />threat to adjacent lands and to the successful revegetatim of this site, that <br />weed will be controlled by taking appropriate measures. The method of control <br />will be dependent upon the species of weed and how it is best controlled. <br />Irrigation will not be applied. Not only is there no water available to <br />irrigate with, but a stranger, better adapted vegetation will be developed if <br />it is allowed to establish itself under normal climatic conditions. If the <br />seeding occurs during the periods stated above, irrigation is not necessary. <br />u <br /> <br />Page 22 <br />
