Approved Plan - OPW230084

           patches are to be treated with the cut & paste method with plant foliage and stems removed from the
           area where possible. Manual removal technique is also be utilised for smaller weeds where possible.
           To assist in the success of the revegetation planting, environmental weed grasses on site are to be
           foliar sprayed before planting occurs. Additionally, mulching after the revegetation areas have been
           sprayed will assist with revegetation, ongoing weed control, and maintenance.
           Weed control works are to be conducted within an appropriate time of year for the species. The
           rehabilitation works contractor is to consult the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries guidelines
           (e.g DAF Lantana) as well as relevant local documents such as the Noosa Biosecurity Plan 2020
           Calendar for Pest Plants in Figure 3 below.
           After the initial weed control works are undertaken at the Site, signs of die-off should be evident within
           3-4 weeks but may take longer due to the weed species being outside the optimal time for weed
           control works. The main signs of die-off are significant yellowing of the leaves and plant.
