Virginia 314: Brush Management
This standard allows for the removal and management of woody plants including invasive and noxious plants. Using this standard will allow landowners with existing degraded wetlands or waterfowl shallow water areas to clean up the area and return it to early successional vegetation.
Virginia 315: Herbaceous Weed Treatment
This standard allows for the removal or control of herbaceous weeds including invasive, noxious, and prohibited plants. This practice is applicable for areas that have excessive Phragmites australis growth allowing for removal and management of these areas to let native plants to reestablish.
Virginia 327: Conservation Cover
This standard is utilized for establishing vegetative cover to enhance wildlife habitat.
Virginia 338: Prescribed Burning
This practice is utilized as another method to control unwanted or invasive species, as well as promote early successional plant growth. Early successional moist soil plants are a vital dietary source for waterfowl and other wildlife species.
Virginia 356: Dike
This standard allows for the construction of an earthen berm to assist in controlling water levels for waterfowl management.
Virginia 378: Pond
This standard allows for an area to impound water through excavation or an earthen embankment. For waterfowl, a pond standard consisting of shallow excavation and a berm of no more than 3 FT is suggested.
Virginia 587: Structure for Water Control
