Site Maintenance <br /> Parking Lots <br /> Parking lots and sidewalks shall be swept monthly by the management company retained by the <br /> property owner/facility manager to clean trash and other debris. The management company <br /> retained by the property owner/facility manager will sweep parking lots on its property in the <br /> spring and fall using a mechanical sweeper(vacuum type). Special attention shall be given to <br /> sweeping paved surfaces in March/April before spring rains when residual sand from winter <br /> applications can be conveyed to surface waters. <br /> Landscaping <br /> The management company retained by the property owner/facility manager will maintain <br /> landscaped areas. Normally the landscaping maintenance will consist of pruning, mulching, <br /> planting, mowing lawns, raking leaves, etc. Use of fertilizers and pesticides will be controlled <br /> and limited to minimal amounts necessary for healthy landscape maintenance. <br /> Soil tests will be performed prior to fertilization. Trees will be fertilized no more than once in <br /> the fall season with an organic fertilizer. Shrubs will be fertilized with an organic slow-release <br /> fertilizer each spring. Lawns shall receive a minimum of one application of fertilizer in the fall. <br /> Liming of lawn areas to control pH will be done in the spring if testing indicates that it is <br /> necessary. The low-maintenance slopes will not be fertilized following initial planting and <br /> stabilization. <br /> The lawn areas, once established, will be maintained at a typical height of 3 '/2". This will allow <br /> the grass to be maintained with minimal impact from weeds and/or pests. The low-maintenance <br /> areas will be maintained as a meadow or allowed to revert back to natural conditions. <br /> Pesticides will only be used as a control method when a problem has been clearly identified and <br /> other natural control methods are not successful. All pesticide applications shall be by licensed <br /> applicators, where necessary. No phosphorus shall be used. <br /> Topsoil, brush, leaves, clippings, woodchips, mulch, equipment, and other material shall be <br /> stored off site. <br /> Trash Collection <br /> All trash will be contained in litter/recyclable receptacles or dumpster enclosures. All dumpsters <br /> will be equipped with covers. All trash will be collected on a regular basis and disposed of <br /> legally off-site. <br /> 220 Norwood Park South,Suite 201 • Norwood,MA 02062 • T(781)619-9500 • F(203)630-2615• www.blcompanies.com <br /> 4 <br />
