Avoid known individual plant locations and conduct operations elsewhere when they are least likely to cause damage. Ideally, this would involve frozen, snow-covered ground. However, in areas of the state where frozen conditions are unreliable, very dry soils late in the growing season might be the best available alternative. Consult with a biologist, if needed.
Avoid locating landings, staging areas, or access routes on or near known populations.
Avoid broadcast spraying of herbicides and use care with spot spraying.
Follow BMPs, especially around streams and use care near ravines, steep slopes, cliffs, rock outcrops, etc.
Minimize disturbance to hydrology, including soil disturbance from rutting.
