We were discussing weed control efforts and potential bond <br />release at Edna. Lori was comfortable with the plan to continue weed control and monitoring this year before pursuing <br />bond release. She did express concern with the "terraced pre -law area where there was no topsoil." She <br />noted houndstongue and thistle in the area and asked if we could do anything to address it so these do not continue to <br />spread. I did explain that we cannot hold pre -law areas to our program standards. We discussed the only possible action <br />to take which would be to bring this up with Chevron and suggest that it would be in their best interest to control weed <br />sources adjacent to the areas they are responsible for, and it would indicate they are "good neighbors" to interested <br />landowners. <br />Of course this is outside the scope of what would be required for bond release. I was trying to be proactive and raise <br />any NRCS issues before the 11th hour! So, if you see fit, could you please mention this to Chevron? <br />Thank you, <br />Christine <br />2 <br />
