Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aquatic plant control plan as proposed calls for the control and progressive eradication of the water hyacinth and other water weeds from the St. John's River, using the herbicide 2-4-D. Over the years, the water hyacinth has clogged the St. Johns River to the point that it is a hazard to navigation and recreational activities. Mechanical harvesting proved to be largely ineffective, and biological controls are not adequately developed. Therefore, the use of herbicides was the logical control method. The herbicide 2-4-D has proved to be a very effective control agent. However, it had been prohibited from use in any free-flowing waters. The Department of the Army, Office of the Chief of Engineers, submitted a petition to the EPA requesting that 2-4-D be approved for use in the St. John's River. After a series of studies indicated that the herbicide 2-4-D did not have adverse environmental effects, the EPA approved a registration for this use. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the purpose of this volume to survey and assess the management problems of recreation waters and to present case problems from the field in which the technical data, published literature, and the operations mechanics are given in sufficient detail to provide a format for practical analysis and application. Special emphasis has been given to measures of control of Eurasian watermilfoil.The primary and secondary uses of a body of water determine the need, frequency, and kind of aquatic plant control required to meet the needs of a specific situation. That is to say, a given body of water may be used primarily, or even exclusively for such activities as fishing, boating, or swimming, and the water itself may be used for domestic (potable water), industrial production, and/or agriculture. These uses may seem to be incompatible in themselves, but it is incumbent upon management to supply the optimum conditions for total water use.
