• Above the water line to the Seasonal High Water Level maintain grass height at 5 – 10”.

• All chemical treatments will include only registered, approved herbicides used in strict accordance with label directions and be applied by our Florida licensed applicators. We do provide a notice to our Clients when herbicide applications are expected to produce a die off that could potentially result in a dissolved oxygen deficit. Aeration may be warranted in such cases. This would be most likely to occur at night during warm summer months. Algae blooms that die off can have similar effects.

Safety is a main concern of highway and street agencies In Government. In fact, roadway safety cannot be achieved without a good maintenance program. Employees & Contractors of local road agencies are responsible for reviewing their roads and rights-of-way, identifying hazards, and making conditions safer. 

One potential hazard is vegetation. Trees close to the road can present a fixed object hazard. Grass, weeds, brush and tree limbs can obscure or limit a driver’s view of traffic control devices, approaching vehicles, wildlife and livestock, and pedestrians and bicycles. Controlling vegetation helps reduce crashes and injuries. 

The main goals of vegetation control include: 

• Keeping signs visible to drivers. 
• Keeping road users (vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians) visible to drivers. 
• Improving visibility of livestock and wildlife near the road. 
• Helping pedestrians and bicyclists see motor vehicles. 
• Keeping sidewalks and pedestrian paths clear and free from overhanging vegetation. 
• Removing trees close to the roadway which could result in a severe crash if hit. 
• Improving winter road maintenance in snow and ice areas. 
• Helping drainage systems function as designed.
• Preserving pavements through daylighting and root system control. 
• Controlling noxious weeds in accordance with local laws and ordinances. 
• Maintaining Right-Of-Way Encroachment 
• Clearing Powerline, Fenceline & Access Roads Right-Of-Ways

Some of our Services:

- Roadside Vegetation Management

- Sign Visibility

- Clear Sight Lines

- Drainage

- Side Road Visibility

We use weighted trailing hoses to treat the bottom acre-foot to control hydrilla and other submersed plants. 

We use a standard Hypro pump with a 100-gallon tank set to pump about 5 gallons per minute (GPM) . 

We typically treat ponds that are 8 to 10 feet deep; our setup uses three hoses (one each of 4, 8 and 12 feet in length) attached to a single boom that is the same width as the boat (8 feet) so we can avoid damage to pipes, drains & culverts in Stormwater Ponds.
