3 <br /> <br />Monthly Report: <br /> <br /> <br />Spraying Activities: <br /> <br />Contractor right-of-way spraying: High temperatures, wind, and rain have <br />hampered spraying of road right-of-way operations during July. J&J Spraying <br />has sprayed I94 and I29 medians with Method, I29 ditches on both sides, and I94 <br />ditches between Tower City to Buffalo, Mapleton to West Fargo with the <br />Tordon/Freelexx mix. Remaining ditches will be sprayed in the fall. Walker’s <br />Lawn Care has covered most of the county roadways and I29 with the <br />Tordon/Freelexx mix. To date a total of 1941 acres have been sprayed costing <br />$75,593, leaving a spray budget balance of $264,407 to cover approx. 6900 <br />acres. <br /> <br />Weed Control Staff: Weed Control staff spraying has also been limited. County <br />17 south of I94 to Horace and the West Fargo tie back levy south of I94 have <br />been spot sprayed for Canada thistle. Several flood lots, a site along the railroad <br />in Mapleton, and an area west of the West Fargo lagoons on city property were <br />sprayed for Canada thistle and Leafy spurge. <br /> <br />Staff scouted and sprayed for Purple loosestrife in two locations in Fargo and <br />Briarwood. <br /> <br />Spotted hemlock was sprayed in several township road ditches in Davenport <br />Township with DruaCor. Discussions with NDSU weed specialists have <br />indicated that 2,4-D and other herbicides will control Spotted hemlock in other <br />states. <br /> <br />Budget Presentation: The Weed Control proposed budget was presented to <br />the County Commission on July 22 and was approved by unanimous vote. <br /> <br />Weed Seed Free Forage Inspection: Received $102.10 from the North Dakota <br />Dept of Agriculture for Weed Seed Free Forage inspection of a hay field on June <br />22, 2020. <br />
