LDWF, Jury unveil plan to save Bistineau |
|
Lake Bistineau's salvation from Giant Salvinia may be on the horizon with an aquatic plant control plan recently released by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF). On Tuesday, Webster Parish Police Juror Charles Odom informed fellow jurors that the proposal includes herbicide applications, drawdowns and the possible use of harvesting machines to extract plant debris. Following the discovery of the fast-growing aquatic plant, early control efforts included physical removal and spot treatments with foliar herbicides. Salvinia weevils were also stocked in two test enclosures in August 2007 in two different locations on the lake. According to the LDWF, Lake Bistineau received more attention in 2007 than any other Salvinia-infested lake in the state. |
