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 broadcast spraying of herbicides and use care with spot spraying.
Minimize disturbance to hydrology, including soil disturbance from rutting.
Avoid rapid and dramatic reductions in canopy cover and, basal area, in wet areas to reduce risk of swamping.
Maintain and restore open habitat through selective clearing and brushing.
This species is likely sensitive to water quality. Following BMPs around streams and buffering associated drainages will reduce eutrophication and prevent water quality degradation.
