Red Deer County - Weed Inspections

Why Red Deer County Inspects: Alberta is extremely susceptible to invasive species. Some species are looking to get a foot hold in our waterways and others are looking to invade our productive Agricultural land. For this reason the Weed Act was proclaimed in 1907 and has existed in some form for the last 107years, making it one of Alberta oldest pieces of legislation. Its latest revision, (proclaimed in June 2010) listed 46 prohibited noxious and 29 noxious weeds requiring either eradication in the case of Prohibited noxious or the control of noxious weeds. The revision showed an increased focus on new invasive plants, that most had assumed weren't even in Alberta yet. To assist landowners/occupants identify and develop control these legislated weeds, Red Deer County Council appoints 4 weed inspectors annually. One of their main goals is to create awareness about these new invasive weeds and why they must be controlled or eradicated. www.rdcounty.ca
