GENERAL NOTICE OF ROADSIDE DITCH SPRAYING ALONG COUNTY ROADS

Beltrami County will be performing roadside vegetation control along Beltrami County Highways beginning in June. We will be spraying for Spotted Knapweed, Thistle, Tansy, Wild Parsnip, and brush. The following roads within Frohn, Bemidji, Grant Valley, Northern, Eckles and Turtle River township will be sprayed: 401, 402, 403, 404, 406, 407, 413, 46, 515, 20, 4, 12, 19, 2, 25, 8, 7, 11, 27, 14 and 9. We are putting out this notice because you may have property adjacent to the roadside scheduled for treatment. Selective herbicides will be used that control the brush and noxious weeds but allow the grass to grow. All herbicides have been fully tested and are approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. If you do not want spraying adjacent to your property you MUST place “DO NOT SPRAY” signs at the beginning and end of your segment. If you have any questions or concerns, please call the Beltrami County Highway Department at 218-333-8173.
