Attachment 65_Exhibit_D_D-1_Hoedad_Shovel_Planting.pdf

This file contains technical exhibits illustrating planting methods for vegetation establishment, specifically from document R6-4-00-04, Section J.

Exhibit D depicts hoe planting techniques with a hole broken on four sides. The illustration shows a sequential process beginning with creating the planting hole using a hoe tool, breaking the soil on all four sides of the hole. Subsequent diagrams demonstrate proper placement of plant roots within the broken soil, backfilling procedures, and final establishment with side and front views showing the completed planting with the seedling positioned in the prepared soil.

Exhibit D-1 illustrates shovel planting methodology, also with a hole broken on four sides. This exhibit provides an alternative technique using a shovel instead of a hoe, demonstrating the same sequential steps: hole creation with soil breaking on four sides, root placement and positioning within the prepared hole, backfilling with broken soil around the plant roots, and final establishment views from side and front perspectives. Both exhibits are technical reference materials designed to ensure proper planting procedures for vegetation establishment work.
