Herbicide applications for all 2015 treatment sites were completed during the last week of May, with the exception of Discovery Bay. Based on observed treatment symptoms and water quality monitoring results (herbicide residues), the treatment plan in Discovery Bay will be extended.

The extended treatment plan will follow a bi-weekly schedule, occurring every other week, beginning on June 22. The final herbicide application is anticipated to be completed during the week of September 21.

Schedule is as follows:

Week of June 22
Week of July 6
Week of July 20
Week of August 3
Week of August 17  Cancelled*
Week of August 31
Week of September 7
Week of September 21 

 
* Herbicide concentration detected in the East Contra Costa Irrigation District Canal are at levels of concentration that warrant a modification to the treatment plan.
“Treatment sites and schedules are subject to change based on regulatory requirements, weather conditions, plant growth and movement, waterway traffic, listed fish presence surveys, and other conditions.”
  • Applications will be conducted during the hours of 7am to 4pm bi-weekly, Monday thru Friday.
  • Herbicide applications during the time frame will utilize Fluridone (Sonar) only.
