Section 74:29:05:19 - Land application of solution - Revegetation of site - Inspection

Areas of surface disturbance within land application sites must be stabilized by grading and revegetating immediately following the disturbance. In areas where vegetation is destroyed by the land application of solution, revegetation shall be conducted during the first suitable planting period following disturbance.

The site must be inspected by the operator daily during periods of solution application for any unplanned effects, such as erosion, sedimentation, and damage to vegetation or wildlife. If any such effects are noted, steps must be taken immediately to mitigate the problem.

If the composition of the vegetative species of the native ground cover significantly changes during the course of land application, the operator must develop a plan that either demonstrates that after termination of land application a permanent, self-perpetuating ground cover at least equal in character and extent to the original will remain or details a revegetation program that has been approved by the department of game, fish and parks and the local conservation district.
