For purposes of this rule, hydroseeding includes, but is not limited to, truck-mounted, trailer-mounted or any type of seed sprayer. The seed slurry for spraying may include water, fertilizer, tackifying agents, fiber mulch, green dye or other substances that promote seed growth and may be used to, for example, grow grass, restore habitat or prevent soil erosion even if no further preparation of the property is performed before or after the hydroseeding takes place.
