D. Specific location of infestation(s) on land. (Wetland, along ditch, fence line, etc.) The area most impacted by weeds is along the B.H. Eaton Ditch and the Cache La Poudre River. This area of infestation is over thirty acres which is adjacent to these two water conveyance features. 6. Management Plan A. Techniques I will use to keep the noxious weeds from going to seed, that will also reduce infestation. Canada thistle - A plan to mow or burn along ditch lines at least once prior to flowering (keeping the plants from going to seed) and then will spray in the fall I will use a herbicide labeled for use in pasture, either Curtail at 3gts./acre, or a tank mix of Clarity and 2,4-D at 1 qt. each acre. Musk thistle - A plan to mow or burn along ditch lines at least once prior to flowering (keeping the plants from going to seed) and then will spray in the fall. I will use a herbicide labeled for use in pasture, either Curtail at 3gts./acre, or a tank mix of Clarity and 2,4-D at 1 qt. each/acre. Leafy spurge - I will spray in the spring prior to flower stage and then will spray again in the fall on the regrowth. I will start by spraying the spurge that occurs in a 50-75 ft. border along the South Platte River and fence lines -keeping the spurge from spreading in the river and to the neighbors. I will use 2,4-D at 2 qts/acre in the spring and Plateau at 10-12oz./acre in the fall. B. Implementation schedule. Canada thistle -mowing will occur in June of each year, depending upon the growth stage of the plant. Spraying will occur in the fall -September or October. Musk thistle -mowing will occur in June of each year, depending upon the growth stage of the plant. Spraying will occur in the fall - September or October. Leafy spurge -spraying will be carried out in May and again in the fall -September or October. C. Anticipated length of implementation (years). 3-5 years Page 2 of 2
