The Idaho Department of Agriculture is the lead agency supporting Eurasian Milfoil control throughout the state. This effort has focused on Priest Lake over the past few years. A combination of treatment and diver survey and removal has kept this invasive species largely in check within this pristine water resource.
A key part of this program has been the use of US EPA approved herbicides that selectively target Eurasian Milfoil and protect native aquatic plant species. Aquatechnex has been selected over the years to support this work. The Department renewed our contract to continue supporting these efforts through the 2011-2012 period this past week. As survey work is completed and if populations of Eurasian Milfoil are deemed necessary for herbicide treatment, our team will be using this blog site to communicate our plans and actions on the lake.
