Just as a reminder, NYS DEC will be conducting our Second fluridone treatment of the Aurora and Long Point Areas on 7/1.
For this treatment we will be reducing the total number of acres covered due to a delay in product procurement. The planned treatments will still target known hydrilla detections from 2024 monitoring events.
Water samples results will be collected on Wednesday (7/2) and will be shared upon receipt.
Water sample results, treatment and sample maps can also be viewed here:
