Anything needing <br /> maintenance should be repaired immediately. <br /> VIOLATIONS <br /> Failure to carry out the operation and maintenance required for the Cl may result in the reimbursement <br /> of the FDACS cost share dollars used to purchase it. <br /> CONTACT THE INDIAN RIVER SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT FOR <br /> ADDITIONAL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE YOU MAY NEED FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS <br /> OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN. <br /> Form date January 2003 <br />
