Tansy ragwort is an example of a noxious weed that can be lethal to horses and cattle that Clallam County Noxious Weed Control officials would like to better control in collaboration with the county Road Department through their roadside vegetation and noxious weed management draft plan.
Tansy ragwort is an example of a noxious weed that can be lethal to horses and cattle that Clallam County Noxious Weed Control officials would like to better control in collaboration with the county Road Department through their roadside vegetation and noxious weed management draft plan.

The Clallam County Noxious Weed Control Board, in partnership with WSU Extension and the Clallam County Road Department, is hosting three public workshops in July on a draft Integrated Roadside Weed Management (IRWM) Plan.

Attend a public workshop to hear about the draft IRWM Plan, become familiar with noxious weed issues on county roadsides and offer your feedback on the plan.

After public input received from the workshop is reviewed, a revised version of the plan will be subsequently presented to the Board of Clallam County Commissioners for adoption.

Workshops will be from 2-4 p.m. Wednesday, July 13, at the Sequim Prairie Grange, 290 Macleay Road, Sequim; and from 6:30-8:30 p.m. July 13, at Dry Creek Grange, 3130 W. Edgewood Drive, Port Angeles.
