I/We, the undersigned, hereby make application for incorporated dust control strip to be applied by the Leduc County Road Operations department to the municipal roadway adjacent to my/our residence at the location described above. I/We hereby have read, understand, and agree to the following:

• It is imperative that regular and ongoing maintenance work continues on our gravel roads to preserve the road base in a smooth and safe condition for the travelling public. Accordingly, maintenance of the treated portion of the road will be consistent with other county roads. A grader will be used to level and fill in ruts, washboard or potholes when required. Typically, all gravel roads will be re-graveled every two to four years. Therefore, the dust control strip may be graveled over during the regular program to ensure safety and integrity of the road surface; however, the site will be assessed prior to gravelling;
• It must be stressed that Leduc County retains full ownership of and responsibility for the maintenance of roads under Leduc County jurisdiction. Your contribution to the incorporated dust control strip in no way constitutes a permanent right of any kind.
