Site preparation: Rain Garden Area <br />1. The project area will be excavated as needed to create a shallow depression (to be <br />done by the general contractor or excavator). <br />2. Next spring, allow the site to green up, and then apply a glyphosate herbicide <br />(Roundup° or equivalent) as per manufacturer's directions.
