Saturday, May 17th saw the return of the seeding sub-contractor to clean up the disturbed areas and also to put down grass seed. This is significant as this is the final phase of the project and hopefully the weather will cooperate to allow the seed to grow and fill in quickly so we can remove silt fence and other temporary storm water measures.

While they were here they seeded around the Rose Lane Park area and the grass waterways and the areas around the golf course that needed touch ups. They also work on cleaning up the rain gardens and planting them with the native wildflower mix that is required.

These rain gardens will also get some plant plugs put in, hopefully later this week. These plugs are already growing plants that will help to establish the area quicker than just working with seed.
The plan is for the seed sub-contractor to be back in Storm Lake on Tuesday or Wednesday this week with the plugs. Plugs are going to go around the two ponds at the Sunrise Pointe Golf Course and in the rain gardens.
