Federal Agencies to Spray Herbicide on Invasive Grasses in Carbon County
Original: Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Wildlife Service to drop herbicide on invasive grasses in part of Carbon County
The Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service plan to aerially apply herbicide over part of Carbon County, Utah, to control invasive grasses that threaten native rangeland. The treatment targets cheatgrass-type invasives that raise wildfire risk and crowd out native vegetation. No details on timing, acreage or specific herbicide have been released in the initial report.
