BACKGROUND

Item 10 Background

Timber sales disturb vegetation and soil in ways that can stimulate existing invasive plant seed banks, reduce barriers to invasive seed dispersal, and improve site conditions for invasive plant introduction and establishment.

This establishment is particularly evident where ground disturbances are more severe, such as skid roads and burn pile scars. Invasive plant infestations can persist said disturbances and become sources for further seed spread.

Equipment and work crews can also spread invasive plant seeds to and from project areas.

The Green Leftovers & Stag Clover Creek TS Units-North EA

Green Leftovers and Stag Clover Creek projects are within the North EA analysis area boundary of the Klamath

Falls Field Office, Lakeview District BLM. Invasive plant inventories on the KFFO in 2022/2023 focused on locations where invasive plants are most likely to occur and spread from, such as road corridors, temporary road spurs and landings that access timber units. These units are all north of Highway 66 and accessible via existing roads. The terrain varies in aspect and slope steepness; however, most slopes are less than 30%. The following priority weeds exist within these treatment units: knapweed (Centaurea spp.), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), woolly mullein (Verbascum Thapsus), dyer’s woad (Isatis tinctoria), and musk thistle (Carduus nutans).

Item 20 Background

The Klamath Hills Recreation Area has had recent disturbance from fire and heavy equipment. The priority treatment area is within the rec area, adjacent to the parking lot, and along the recreation trail on BLM managed land. Priority invasive weeds for treatment include (but not limited to): musk thistle (Carduus nutans), bull thistle

(Cirsium vulgare), Scotch thistle (Onopordum acanthium), tumble mustard (Sisymbrium altissimum), annual Kochia

(Kochia scoparia) and prickly lettuce (Lactuca serriola).

BLM LAKEVIEW, DISTRICT OFFICE, OREGON Page 8 of 73

Item 30 Background

The Wood River Wetland has had recent disturbances from levee and road work and repairs. The priority treatment area is adjacent to the parking lot and along the gravel road on BLM managed lands. Priority invasive weeds for treatment include (but are not limited to): musk thistle (Carduus nutans), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), Scotch thistle (Onopordum acanthium), tumble mustard (Sisymbrium altissimum), prostrate knotweed (Polygonum aviculare), yellow starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis), knapweed (Centaurea spp.) and prickly lettuce (Lactuca serriola). There are critical habitat avoidance buffers (ARBO II buffers) that will apply (refer to KFFO PUP 2023).

Item 40 Background

Van Meter Fire started in 2022. Approximately 8 miles southeast of the town of Klamath Falls in Klamath County

Oregon. 1,455 acres (55%) of the burned area is located on BLM managed land in Klamath County, Oregon; 1,178

ac. (45%) is located on private land. The terrain in the burned area varies between mostly forested northeast aspect rocky steep slopes and grass-shrub semi-arid rangelands on southwest aspect slopes at approximately 4,500 feet elevation and receives approximately 15” of annual precipitation. The vegetation is dominated by western juniper, ponderosa pine, mountain big sagebrush and low sagebrush communities.

Invasive weeds that exist within and adjacent to the burned area include: musk thistle (Carduus nutans), bull thistle

(Cirsium vulgare), Scotch thistle (Onopordum acanthium) and invasive annual grasses including medusahead rye

(Taeniatherum caput-medusae), Japanese brome (Bromus japonicus), North Africa grass (Ventenata dubia) and cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum). These invasive weeds pose a threat to native vegetation recovery and re-establishment within the fire perimeter. In addition, suppression-related activities adjacent to the fire, such as dozerlines, staging areas, safety zones, and drop points, created additional disturbance likely to exacerbate the spread of invasive weeds within the Van Meter Fire.

Item 05 Background (Option 2 & Option 3 & Option 4 & Option 5)

The Warner Wetlands is a multiuse designated Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) including outstanding geologic, soil and water features. The relevant and important resource values identified in the ACEC designation include special status plants, unique wildlife habitat resources associated with wetland areas, prehistoric cultural resources, and scenic view resource values. All noxious weeds found within the targeted polygon should be sprayed; however, the main species of concern are perennial pepperweed (Lepidium latifolium), whitetop (Lepidium draba), Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense) and kochia (Bassia scoparia). The contractor will need to avoid treatment of two BLM special status plant species: seaside heliotrope (Heliotropium curassavicum) and Western sea-purslane

(Sesuvium verrucosum). The contractor will also need to avoid treatment of showy milkweed (Asclepias speciosa), depending on the amount of moisture.

Option 01 Background

Sweet Vidalia (2020 cut) and Rockslide TS are planned for treatment in 2024 and are likely to need re-treatment in subsequent years. These projects are within the North EA analysis area boundary of the Klamath Falls Field Office, Lakeview District BLM. Invasive plant inventories on the KFFO in 2022/2023 focused on locations where invasive plants are most likely to occur and spread from, such as road corridors, temporary road spurs and landings that access timber units. These units are all north of Highway 66 and accessible via existing roads. The terrain varies in aspect and slope steepness, but most slopes are less than 30%. The following priority weeds exist within these treatment units: knapweed (Centaurea spp.), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), woolly mullein (Verbascum Thapsus), dyer’s woad (Isatis tinctoria), and musk thistle (Carduus nutans).

Option 06 Background

The Cougar Peak Fire burned in September 2021 at low to moderate fire severity on BLM managed lands. Field assessments revealed several new weed infestations expanding due to recent disturbance and a lack of native vegetation. Some of the work is accessible by a pickup truck along a main road. Other areas will require hiking steep slopes up to 1 mile to the site which is 2 miles long. Other areas can be accessed with a UTV.

The fire burned much of the above ground vegetation, increasing bare ground and nitrogen, resulting in a higher likelihood of non-native invasive plant introduction or establishment. Invasive plant treatments are necessary to maintain site productivity and biodiversity of native plant species and reduce flashy fuel loads.

BLM LAKEVIEW, DISTRICT OFFICE, OREGON Page 9 of 73

New infestations of invasive weeds observed within the burned area will be treated including (but not limited to):

yellow star thistle (Centaurea solstitialis), spotted knapweed (Centaurea stoebe), musk thistle (Carduus nutans), Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense), scotch thistle (Onopordum acanthium), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), and

Mediterranean sage (Salvia aethiopis). The potential for weed spread is high due to dozer lines created through known invasive species locations. The high potential of these weeds to establish and out-compete native vegetation communities is a concern. The area of the Cougar Peak Fire burned through a Greater Sage-Grouse Habitat

Restoration plan for Clover Flat. This plan was implemented starting in 2017. Weed treatments and reseeding had previously reduced invasive weeds greatly in this area.

Option 07 Background

The Brattain Fire burned in 2020 at low to moderate severity within the Lakeview Field Office, Lakeview District

BLM. The primary invasive weed species include (but are not limited to): musk thistle (Carduus nutans), yellow star thistle (Centaurea solstitialis), spotted knapweed (Centaurea stoebe), Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense) scotch thistle

(Onopordum acanthium), and bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare). Some of the work is accessible by a pickup truck along a main road while some areas may be accessed with a UTV. Other areas will require hiking steep slopes for up to 1 mile to access the site, that site may extend up to 2 miles long.

SECTION C – STATEMENT OF WORK

C.1.0 GENERAL

C.1.1 Description of Work – Contractor shall apply herbicide to non-native invasive plant species at specified sites with herbicide and adjuvants identified in approved Pesticide Use Proposal identified at the purchase order level, as appropriate for the particular weed species to achieve maximum control of the target species with minimal damage to non-targets. Contractor shall provide necessary management, supervision, labor, materials, supplies, transportation, equipment, and any other incidentals necessary to perform the work. All contract line items will include mobilization, demobilization, and cleanup costs within its unit price. The project areas will include roadsides and off-road areas not limited to grasslands, rangelands, wetlands, riparian, woodlands, conifer stands, gravel/rock quarry pits, and trails.

C.1.2 Location of Project Units – The location of the work sites shall be within the vicinity of the Lakeview BLM

District. Anticipated project areas are identified, but not limited to mapped areas in Section I.

C.1.3 Timing of Work- Timing of field work shall take into consideration potential target species, elevation, seasonal climate, aspect, and habitat of each project area. In order to treat as many of the target plants at a given location as possible, time visits during the stage of plant phenological development that assures emergence and visibility of the maximum number of plants that might be expected for that year’s treatment. In addition, ensure timing/phenology for treatment as directed by the product labels is followed to achieve maximum control over the targeted species and minimal non-target damage.

C.1.4 Scope of Work - The objective of this contract is to apply herbicide to non-native invasive plants designated by the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR), using standard herbicide application methods following the terms, specifications, and provisions in this contract. Acceptable contract performance will be based on a thorough treatment of the invasive plants herein specified. Work quality will be inspected according to the specifications present in the contract. Each treatment item shall be for a weed density level (low, medium, or high).

Each purchase order will list the target species and density level for a unit feature targeted for treatment.

Documentation will include recording information about weed populations when discovered and details about treatment methods of populations.

C.1.5 Applicable Directives for Project

a. The proposed project work shall be done in accordance with the Integrated Invasive Plant Management for the Lakeview Field Office Revised Environmental Assessment (DOI-BLM-OR-L050-2014-0021-EA) and the Klamath Falls Field Office Environmental Assessment (DOI-BLM-OR-L040-2017-0015-EA).

This proposed project work will also occur in accordance with the 2007 Programmatic EIS for Vegetation treatments using herbicides on Bureau of Land Management Lands in 17 Western States and the 2010

Record of Decision for the Final Environmental Impact Statement on Vegetation Treatments Using

Herbicides on BLM Lands in Oregon. This contract will incorporate all pertinent Standard Operating

Procedures, chemicals, application rates, and adjuvants as allowed by law.

b. Future BLM Policy or guidelines pertaining to invasive plant treatments will be incorporated into this contract and subsequent purchase orders will update those changes provided they do not require additional work beyond the scope of this contract. If compliance with the new policies would incur additional costs to the Contractor, the BLM will cancel the Contract or negotiate adjustments to the awarded bid prices with the Contractor. Potential policy changes could include new herbicides or adjuvants or changes in the list of target plants.

C.1.6 Invasive Plant Species- The noxious/invasive weeds list may change annually by adding or deleting species but will remain similar to the one in Attachment 6. An updated list will be provided at the purchase order level as needed.

C.1.7 Access to Project Areas

BLM LAKEVIEW, DISTRICT OFFICE, OREGON Page 11 of 73

C.1.7.1 Standard Access: Standard access is defined as passable by trucks needed for mixing and loading herbicide for large scale application projects. Access will be by both improved roads (paved/gravel) and unimproved roads

(dirt) which may require four-wheel drive vehicles. Some units or portions of units do not have direct road access.

Appropriate routes will be provided to the contractor for travel.

C.1.7.2 Walk-ins may be necessary for many of the purchase orders. Infrequently, treatment sites may take more than half mile to access on foot. ATVs and UTVs use will be approved on a site-by-site basis.

C.1.7.3 Use of un-surfaced roads during wet months should be minimized to avoid damage. Vehicles shall not operate off system roads without prior written approval of the Contracting Officer, nor shall they by-pass any officially blocked road (barriers, locked gates, posted signs, rock/log/dirt, etc.) without approval of the Contracting

Officer Representative (COR). The Government assumes no obligation to do special maintenance to keep roads open. However, the contractor may cut fallen trees or logs out of the roadway if they are blocking their access to a treatment area. Just the portion of the log or tree within the road prism may be cut.

C.1.7.4 Private Lands – If the only access to a treatment site on BLM lands is across private lands, either on private roads or overland, the Contractor shall obtain permission to travel over private lands unless the Government has already obtained permission. Otherwise, the Contractor may be required to provide the COR with a written statement or written documentation of a verbal approval given by a named person with a phone number on a stated date and time that the Contractor has been granted permission for access. If the Contractor is unable to secure permission, the Contractor will let the COR know immediately and the COR will attempt to coordinate access with the Landowner. The Contractor shall not trespass across private lands. If the Contractor is not able to access an area, that unit may be exchanged for a similar unit or dropped.

C.3.0 DEFINITIONS

Density levels - An evaluation of the percent cover (area occupied by a plant in a specific location) that require varying amounts of time and effort to complete a purchase. The density level is based on the estimated amount of plants present at the time of treatment. It is an average of the percent cover of plants in the treatment area. For example, a “low” infestation may have several clusters of plants but no plants in the rest of the treatment area.

Low concentrations consist of a few scattered plants, patches, clumps, or concentrations, 1% to 5% ground coverage within each treatment site.

Medium concentrations consist of many plants, patches, clumps, or concentrations of specified species that have approximately 5% to 25% ground coverage within each treatment site.

High concentrations consist of large, dense, heavy, concentrations of the specified species that have 25% - 100% ground coverage within each treatment site with only a few or occasional open areas.

GPS – Global Positioning System

Base (reference, control) Station – A GPS receiver set up at a known location; that is, a point whose Universal

Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates and elevation are known.

CEP (circular error probable, 2-dimensional) – statistical measure of accuracy. It implies the probability that 50% of the positions obtained will fall within a circle of the specified radius.

PDOP (Position of Dilution of Precision) – PDOP is an indicator of the satellite’s geometry in relation to the user’s

GPS receiver location. The smaller the number, the better the geometry; therefore, the better the position.

BLM LAKEVIEW, DISTRICT OFFICE, OREGON Page 14 of 73

Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) - A mapping coordinate grid system based upon one of many different mapping projections. The Lakeview BLM District falls between two projections, UTM Zone 11 and UTM Zone 10, US Datum of 1983 (CONUS NAD83). The data is displayed in meters easting and northing. The Contractor will be advised if this UTM projection changes and will be required to use the new projection.

Herbaceous plant – A plant having little or no woody tissue and usually persisting for a single growing season.

New Invader – A weed species new to the area, often heavily targeted for total eradication before populations get very large.

Noxious Weeds – Plants found on the State of Oregon Noxious weed list found at http://oregon.gov/ODA/PLANT/WEEDS/lists.shtml. The targeted weeds for the Lakeview District can be found in

Section I, Attachment 6. The weed list may change annually but will remain similar to the 2011 list. Updated lists and direction about which weeds to target will be given to the Contractor at the pre-work for each purchase order.

Not all weeds will be targeted for treatment.

PAR – Pesticide Application Record – A legally required record of herbicide application that is filled out within 24 hours of treatment. It includes what herbicide and how much was used, what weeds were sprayed, dates and times of application, names of applicators, etc… (See Attachment 7). Hardcopy PARs are completed manually while PARs information is entered electronically in the VMAP geodatabase.

Patch of Weeds – A weed patch is defined as a cluster of weeds of at least 10 herbaceous weeds (e.g. yellow starthistle), or 2 woody plants (e.g. Scotch broom).

Root Crown - The point where the root and stem of a plant meet and the primary vascular anatomy changes from a stem to a root. This is also the transition point between the stem and the root.

VMAP (Vegetation Management Action Portal)-serves as the system of record for vegetation management projects including invasive weed treatments.

Woody plant – A plant with woody tissue, e.g. stems and branches, and usually persisting more than one growing season.

C.4.0 CONTRACTOR AND GOVERNMENT FURNISHED ITEMS

C.4.1 Contractor Furnished Items

C.4.1.1 The Contractor shall furnish all necessary labor, equipment, transportation, training, supervision, materials, water, and incidentals necessary to perform the weed control as specified herein.

a) License – Oregon State law requires the Contractor to hold a current valid Commercial Pesticide

Operator/Applicator License to apply or supervise the application of herbicides. Oregon pesticide license categories should include Agriculture and Right-of-Way. If the Purchase Orders include forested areas a Forest category will also be required. At a minimum, the supervisor of every crew shall be fully licensed. All other applicators will need to have a minimum of Immediately Supervised Pesticide Trainee License or Pesticide Apprentice License and will need to be working under the Licensed Applicator with appropriate categories.

b) Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for crew members for herbicide and tool use, including chainsaws needed to cut incidental wind thrown trees blocking roads to gain access to sites.

c) Herbicide Labels and Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for herbicides and adjuvants planned for use with each crew at all times.

d) Materials, including, but not limited to:

http://oregon.gov/ODA/PLANT/WEEDS/lists.shtml

BLM LAKEVIEW, DISTRICT OFFICE, OREGON Page 15 of 73

1. Reference information to aid workers in proper identification of weeds.

2. Approved herbicides (see Attachment 5 and C.5.2.10 for Government approved herbicides)

3. Approved spray adjuvants (see Attachment 6, for BLM approved adjuvants)

4. Water – Clean water for mixing herbicides from a Municipal source must be transported to the field.

Drawing water from creeks, rivers, or ponds is not permitted unless it is processed with a filtering system that removes all dirt particles and other contaminants. Transportation and storage of water for mixing must meet with the

COR’s approval.

5. HI-LIGHT blue dye for adding to herbicide tank mixtures.

6. Spray equipment in good working condition and meeting the COR’s approval. Hand applicators for wiping.

7. Materials needed for filling out forms and mapping infestations and treatment areas in the field.

e. GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver to obtain or find locations of treatment sites. Required settings are UTM Zone 10 or 11 North, NAD 83, in meters. Each crew must have a mobile GPS unit or tablet in order to collect data.

g. Herbicide Spill Containment Kit and Written Spill Plan

A Spill Containment Kit shall be present at all treatment sites and will include sufficient absorbent material to contain all herbicide and herbicide mixture on the site, plus such items as shovel, hoe, garbage bags, paper towels, hose clamps, duct tape, and hand tools sufficient to stop any leaks and contain spills.

The contractor shall provide the Government with an herbicide spill plan. In case of a spill, the contractor will immediately implement the spill plan and notify the COR.

h. Signing - In areas designated as high public use by the COR (recreation sites, trail heads etc.,) the

Contractor shall post pesticide warning signs that inform the public of herbicide use, what was sprayed, when it was sprayed, and when reentry is allowed. The signs shall be placed where they are visible to the public. It is the

Contractor’s responsibility to place the signs prior to treatment and retrieve the signs after the reentry period has elapsed.

i. Weed Identification - Information pertaining to the identification of noxious weeds is the responsibility of the Contractor. The COR is available to verify the identification of new weed species, but ultimately the crew supervisors must know the target weed species and direct and train the crew on weed identification. The crew supervisor should have access to books such as “Weeds of the West” or other reference materials to ensure proper weed identification of the target species.

j. Chemical (herbicide) treatments –The Contractor shall have an active Commercial Pesticide Operator licensed in the State of Oregon, with the appropriate categories to apply herbicide on BLM lands (Agriculture-

Herbicide, Forestry, and Right-of-Way). All Applicators need to have a minimum of Immediately Supervised

Pesticide Trainee License to apply BLM-approved herbicides to herbaceous or woody plants designated by the BLM using a backpack sprayer, ATV/ UTV sprayer or truck-mounted hoses. Truck mounted sprayers with extension hoses may be used along roads with COR approval. Contractor must demonstrate that the spray pattern and pressure is capable of avoiding excessive damage to desirable plant species. i.e., low pressure and small spray pattern. All herbicide treatments must be conducted following herbicide label directions, Standard Operating Procedures, and all other policies and guidelines pertaining to their use.

C.4.2 GOVERNMENT FURNISHED ITEMS

The Government shall furnish the following:

a. Maps of areas to be treated, generally 1:12,000 scale or larger (i.e., 1:5,000)

b. Copies of aerial photos may also be provided

BLM LAKEVIEW, DISTRICT OFFICE, OREGON Page 16 of 73

c. Noxious weed flagging to flag treated sites

d. Pesticide flags to be placed in public areas.

C.5.0 SPECIFIC PURCHASES

C.5.1 Records - The Contractor shall maintain treatment records to allow the Government to monitor contract progress and to be accountable for work quality. Pesticide Applications Records (PARs) are required to be filled out by State Law within 24 hours of application and are used as the records for herbicide use. A time and day for submitting paperwork will be established at the prework.

C.5.1.2 Forms, Mapping, and Flagging

Herbicide Treatments

a) FORMS - For Herbicide treatments the Contractor shall fill out a Pesticide Application Record (PAR) within 24 hours of application of treated sites. PARs shall be turned in weekly and reviewed by the

COR. The PAR serves as written notice of completed herbicide units. All fields in the PAR form shall be filled out. (See blank PAR Attachment 7). A separate PAR shall be filled out for each section or road system treated and for each day of treatment in one location. More than one species may be included on the same PAR if they are treated in the same location with the same herbicide.

b) VMAP (Vegetation Management Action Portal) Database –The contractor will record herbicide treatments on PARS,which will be used by BLM staff to enter into VMAP database.. The fields will be similar to those on the PARS form. Most fields contain drop down menus. A separate data sheet will be required for each species. Collecting this data will initially take 5-10 minutes to complete but will eventually be faster than completing hard copies of the PARS.

c) MAPPING – The Contractor shall submit the topographical map or aerial photo issued by the BLM with each PAR. Maps will generally be at a scale of 1:12,000. The Contractor shall delineate the area(s) on the map that was treated with herbicide. Treatments occurring in multiple sections will have multiple maps.

More than one weed species may be included on one map, but populations of different species shall be drawn on the maps and marked with the species’ name(s). Treatment areas shall be drawn on maps so that they are distinguishable on a black and white copy. Treatment sites need to be relocatable either by accurate mapping, flagging, or with UTM coordinates. In addition to mapping the treatment site on a topographical map or aerial photo, the Contractor shall collect GPS points for the treatment area.

d) FLAGGING – The Contractor shall hang Noxious Weed flagging provided by the Government to indicate where they have sprayed herbicides. For roadside treatments, they shall hang flagging at the beginning and end of treated areas. For polygons, they shall hang flagging in an area that can easily be seen from a distance. The Contractor shall write the date(s) of treatment on the flagging.

C.5.1.3 The Contractor shall review all forms and maps prior to submitting to the COR to ensure that all required forms are properly filled out and all information is clean, clear, and legible. Forms contaminated with chemicals or dye shall be rewritten. Maps with weed sites or treated areas shall be clearly delineated and must accompany PARs.

The COR may revise forms as needed, but they will be comparable to the forms included as attachments. If forms are revised, the COR shall provide the Contractor with the new forms in electronic and hard copy forms at the pre-work for each purchase order.

C.5.1.4 The Contractor shall be competent at reading topographic and transportation maps and aerial photos and using GPS units to locate sites. They shall also be competent using GPS units to collect UTM coordinates for documenting new sites on Report forms.

C.5.1.5 Treatment areas for pay purposes are calculated by GIS in acres for units and miles for linear features like roads and trails, with an average treatment width specified.

C.5.1.6 Species List for Treatment – See Attachment 2 for the list of noxious and invasive weed species that may

BLM LAKEVIEW, DISTRICT OFFICE, OREGON Page 17 of 73 require treatment, as designated by the COR. This list is subject to change as the State of Oregon lists new species as

‘Noxious weeds,’ as new State noxious weeds are found within the project area, or as the BLM identifies invasive species that are targeted for control.

C.5.2 General Herbicide requirements

C.5.2.1 All herbicide use shall follow SOPs (Section I, Attachment 5) and herbicides labels. All herbicides and adjuvants used will be labeled for agriculture, forestry and rights-of-way use and will be on the approved BLM list found at C.5.2.10 and Section I, Attachment 3. If new chemicals are approved for BLM use, the list on C.5.2.10 will be revised and issued in writing by contract modification.

C.5.2.2 Nozzle size/fan design will be set to the lowest application pressure (200 – 800-micron diameter droplets) to ensure adequate plant coverage with minimal drift. To minimize drift, do not apply herbicides when wind speeds exceed 10 mph, except in riparian zones where wind speed must be less than 5 mph.

C.5.2.3 Do not apply herbicides when rainfall is imminent or when fog obscures the visibility of target plants.

C.5.2.4 Non-aquatic herbicides shall not be sprayed within 10 feet of water (springs, creeks, rivers, ponds, lakes) using backpack sprayers or within 25 feet using vehicle mounted sprayers. Aquatic herbicides may be applied to noxious weeds or invasive species (as directed) using a backpack sprayer or wicking/wiping methods within the 10 foot buffer.

C.5.2.5 Do not spray on BLM lands within 500 feet of any residence, unless written permission has been obtained from the landowner or as directed by the COR.

C.5.2.6 For all herbicide applications, weeds will be sprayed at provide in Pesticide Use Proposal signed by the

Lakeview District Invasive Plant Coordinator, Field Office Manager, Oregon State Office Invasive Plant

Coordinator, and Deputy Sate Director. If the Contractor does not feel the herbicide provided in the Pesticide Use

Proposal will be an effective treatment the proposal may be modified, however this modification may take 60 days.

C.5.2.7 All equipment, backpack sprayers, ATV and vehicle-mounted nozzles, sprayers, and hoses will be in good working order. Nozzles shall be free of dirt, with tight fittings and seals in place to prevent leaking.

C.5.2.8 Herbicides shall not be applied when the ambient temperature exceeds the limits stated on the label and

Pesticide Use Proposal.

C.5.2.9 Herbicides shall be securely transported to avoid all leaks or damage to containers. Transporting shall follow label requirements.

C.5.2.10 Herbicide handling, mixing, and loading

C.5.2.10.1 Herbicides will be used in strict accordance with the labels.
