Accumulated vegetation should be <br /> physically removed periodically and should not be treated chemically. <br /> Chemigation Infrastructure This practice includes equipment (i. e. pumps, <br /> storage tanks, etc.) that can be used to facilitate the application of fertilizers and <br /> other appropriate chemicals through a micro irrigation system. Chemigation can <br /> be used to improve water quality by minimizing the loss of fertilizer and <br /> pesticides during storm events. Drip emitter micro irrigation systems are not <br /> eligible for reimbursement under this category. <br /> Conversion / Repair of Flashboard Riser Water Control Structure Flashboard <br /> risers are used to facilitate water table control in citrus groves. As secondary <br /> benefits, flashboard risers also improve sediment control and water quality. Cost <br /> share is available for conversion to flashboard structures and for the replacement <br /> of existing flashboard structures that are no longer functioning properly. <br /> C :1Documents and SettingstrendadWy DocumentstFDACS SMP200SWVater Quality Quantity Applicant's 4 <br /> Handbook Rev 12 06 .doc <br />
