         The board of supervisors of each county may each year, upon
      recommendation of the county weed commissioner by resolution
      prescribe and order a program of weed control for purposes of
      complying with all sections of this chapter.  The county board of
      supervisors of each county may also by adopting an integrated
      roadside vegetation management plan prescribe and order a program of
      weed control for purposes of complying with all sections of this
      chapter.  The program for weed control ordered or adopted by the
      county board of supervisors shall provide that spraying for control
      of weeds shall be limited to those circumstances when it is not
      practical to mow or otherwise control the weeds.
         The program of weed control shall include a program of permits for
      the burning, mowing, or spraying of roadsides by private individuals.
      The county board of supervisors shall allow only that burning,
      mowing, or spraying of roadsides by private individuals that is
      consistent with the adopted integrated roadside vegetation management
      plan.  This paragraph applies only to those roadside areas of a
      county which are included in an integrated roadside vegetation
      management plan.
