Original Post:

Roadside spraying began today, Monday, July 6, along all range roads, south of Highway 13.

The County conducts roadside weed control on a tri-annual basis (3-year rotation). The use of herbicides is the most cost-effective means to do this. All herbicide applications are made by certified applicators, and follow the best practices, handling, safety and standards as set out by Alberta Environment and the Professional Vegetation Management Association of Alberta.
