<br /> allow free flow of water.
<br /> NOTE:Early(February--March)weeding promotes establishment of native grasses,and the early spring weed-

<br /> a and C in early fall-just prior to LARPD s fall application of chemical control(please coordinate.with Robert
<br /> Martinez on timing). This material should not be left onsite in order to allow the chemical control to penetrate to
<br /> the soil.
