permanent channel nor AAPCD permits. Failure to notify prior to beginning work or violation of other terms and conditions

and the amount and type of herbicide used no later than December 31st. The survey will be sent to you in the fall.

posted with "Notice" signs prior to treatment in accordance with DNR posting instructions. Signs, and any buoys or
other structures to which the signs are attached, must be removed within seven days after the last water use restriction

any treatment method or operation nor does it stand as arbiter whether or not any such method or operation has been
satisfactory. This permit is permissive only and no liability shall be incurred by the State or by any of its offices, agents,
