AMENDMENTS, THEN SEED IN TWO DIRECTIONS TO DISTRIBUTE SEED EVENLY OVER ENTIRE AREA.
2. IF CHANGES ARE TO BE MADE TO SEED MIX BASED ON SITE CONDITIONS THEN APPROVAL MUST BE PROVIDED BY CITY
ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNER.
3. APPROPRIATE NATIVE SEEDING EQUIPMENT WILL BE USED (STANDARD TURF SEEDING EQUIPMENT OR AGRICULTURE EQUIPMENT
SHALL NOT BE USED).
4. DRILL SEED APPLICATION RECOMMENDED PER SPECIFIED APPLICATION RATE TO NO MORE THAN ½ INCH DEPTH. FOR BROADCAST
SEEDING INSTEAD OF DRILL SEEDING METHOD DOUBLE SPECIFIED APPLICATION RATE. REFER TO NATIVE SEED MIX TABLE FOR

5. TREAT NATIVE SEED MIX AREA PRIOR TO INSTALLATION OF SEED WITH APPROPRIATE HERBICIDE TO PROACTIVELY MITIGATE
HERBACEOUS WEED SPECIES GROWTH DURING ESTABLISHMENT PERIOD THEN AFTER APPROPRIATE TIME PERIOD APPLY NATIVE
SEED AS CALLED FOR ON APPROVED PLANS.
6. AFTER SEEDING THE AREA SHALL BE COVERED WITH CRIMPED STRAW OR OTHER APPROPRIATE METHODS AND PROVIDED
TEMPORARY IRRIGATION UNTIL SEED IS ESTABLISHED.
7. CONTRACTOR SHALL MONITOR SEEDED AREA FOR PROPER IRRIGATION, EROSION CONTROL, GERMINATION AND RESEEDING AS
NEEDED TO ESTABLISH COVER.
8. THE APPROVED SEED MIX AREA IS INTENDED TO BE MAINTAINED IN A NATURAL LIKE LANDSCAPE AESTHETIC. IF AND WHEN MOWING
OCCURS IN NATIVE GRASS SEED MIX AREAS DO NOT MOW LOWER THAN 6 TO 8 INCHES IN HEIGHT TO AVOID INHIBITING NATIVE

WEED MANAGEMENT PLAN
Weed Mitigation BMPs
Pre-Construction Phase:
· Treat existing noxious weed populations that could be spread by construction activities, especially individual
plants and small infestations. Aggressive treatment of existing weed populations greatly reduces the ability
of the weeds to rebound in post-construction conditions.
· Requiring equipment (especially dirt-moving equipment like bulldozers and excavators) to be washed and
weed-free before entering the Site.
· Use only certified weed-free straw and mulch for erosion control projects, including weed-free fiber roll
barriers and/or sediment logs.
Seeding, Planting, and Post-Construction Phases:
· Obtain soil components, amendments, seed mixes, and mulches from weed-free sources.
· Establish and maintain vigorous, desirable vegetation to discourage weeds.
· Mulch any non-vegetated surfaces to minimize the amount of noxious weed seeds that will reach the soil
surface and germinate.
· The NHBZ will be monitored for any weed infestations post-construction and treated appropriately if
identified. This will occur twice a year for three years following planting.
· The species, location, population size, and treatment method of noxious weeds in the NHBZ will be
documented to inform adaptive management practices.
Weed Treatments for Noxious Weeds Identified on Site
Canada Thistle Weed Control
During the project, Canada thistle will be treated with herbicide in the spring and summer to eliminate top growth,
followed by a fall application of a translocating herbicide. A Licensed Pesticide Commercial Applicator will apply
herbicide per recommendations provided by the Colorado Department of Agriculture in the ‘Canada thistle
identification and management factsheet (2008). Spot-treatment by mechanical methods may also be implemented, as
necessary.
Leafy Spurge Weed Control
During the project, leafy spurge will be treated with herbicide in the spring and summer to eliminate top growth. A
Licensed Pesticide Commercial Applicator will apply herbicide per recommendations provided by the Colorado
Department of Agriculture in the ‘Leafy spurge identification and management factsheet’ (2015). Spot-treatment by
mechanical methods may also be implemented, as necessary.
