For pumping, ensure a pressure adequate to maintain a continuous, nonfluctuating slurry stream. Provide sprayers equipped with nozzles and hose extensions adequate to obtain a uniform slurry application. 2 Apply mulch tack type AR with a hydraulic seeder capable of producing a coarse spray and
calibrated to the specified application rate. 3 Mix mulch tack types MC and GU in a hydraulic seeder equipped with a mechanical
