Franja anti-roedores: Se proveerá una franja de 3’ de ancho y un grueso mínimo de 3" inmediatamente adyacente al edificio para prevenir el crecimiento de yerba o vegetación

Maintain a clean, 3-foot-wide, weed-free area around building foundations, concrete slabs, and footings to discourage rodents from burrowing. Maintain the buffer by mowing vegetation regularly or by applying 1½-inch crushed rock to a depth of 3 inches along a 24-inch wide strip (or wider) surrounding the structure.
