Video of Drone Spraying

Drones are the newest tool in the toolbox allowing treatment of noxious weeds that were previously inaccessible. Watch video of recent herbicide application on tree-of-heaven. 

Take a look at our recent projects. We are currently conducting several herbicide trials on specific noxious and nuisance weeds.

The FCNWCB partners with WA State Parks to map, monitor and spray noxious weeds on the Columbia Plateau Trail and various state parks. Our crew recently installed a pollinator garden at Sacajawea State Park.  

FCNWCB received a multi-year grant to conduct and assess chemical treatments for removing white bryony, a poisonous noxious weed, from the Big Flat Habitat Management Unit.  

Camelthorn is a high priority Class B Noxious Weed with only one known presence in Franklin County. The once large infestation of perennials is now a relatively small number of plants. 

Noxious and obnoxious.

It's all in a day's work!

Cooperative projects with land management agencies such as the City of Pasco, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Bonneville Power Administration.
