Additional Operation and Maintenance
•
Control annual weeds with early and timely clipping or herbicide application. Weed control during the first
two years of establishment will control competition and promote sod formation. Adjust clipping height to
leave a stubble height of 4-6 inches for cool season grasses. Clip in a manner that prevents a mat that will
smother the vegetation.
•
Haying and grazing of the waterway is not allowed unless incidental grazing is requested and authorized
by FSA.
•
Annually inspect the waterway for damage to: 1) vegetative cover, 2) rilling or gullying, 3) sediment
accumulation. Repair any areas disturbed or damaged using material from outside the waterway and
reseed using the original seed mixture. Maintain the original, designed width of the waterway.
•
Maintain good soil erosion control practices within the watershed to prevent sedimentation and loss of
design depth.
•
Prevent disturbance of cover during the primary nesting season for wildlife, as established by FSA.
•
Control all noxious weeds as identified by state and local laws by spot mowing before seed heads form.
Spot treatment must be authorized by FSA during the primary nesting season for wildlife.
•
Control rodent infestations, which adversely affect ground cover or ability to carry out management
activities.
•
Do not use contract area for field roads, turn areas or other uses that will damage or destroy the cover.
•
Do not apply animal or other organic waste.
•
Shut off grass herbicide applicators when crossing waterways.
•
Raise tillage machinery and applicators when crossing the waterway.
•
Do not leave open furrows along the edge, parallel to the waterway.
Mid-contract Management
•
Mow the waterway every other year to a height of 4-6” for the duration of the contract.
•
Mowing will occur between August 1 – September 1 to avoid the primary wildlife nesting and brood rearing
season and to assure adequate regrowth prior to winter.
•
Fertilizing may be necessary to maintain vigorous growth.
