About this file
This is a Pesticide Use Proposal (PUP) submitted by the Bureau of Land Management's Northwest Oregon District for herbicide applications in the West Eugene Wetlands project area spanning 2024-2027. The proposal was originated by Megan McGinnis and dated May 15, 2024, with proposal number ORN000-24-001-P.
The proposal authorizes application of 12 herbicide products across three active ingredients: clopyralid (Stinger, Transline), glyphosate (AquaNeat, Gly Star Original/Plus, Rodeo, Roundup Custom), and triclopyr (Garlon 3A/4, Tahoe 3A, Element 3A/4, Vastlan). Thirteen adjuvants are approved for use, including surfactants, colorants, and fertilizer-based water conditioning agents. Applications will be conducted primarily as spot treatments (≥95%) using hand-held sprayers on vehicles, UTVs, ATVs, or backpacks, with limited broadcast treatments (≤5%) on dense infestations. The proposal targets both non-native invasive plants and noxious weeds including reed canary grass, Himalayan blackberry, Canada thistle, and various other species, as well as native species outcompeting federally listed threatened and endangered plant species in Prairie Restoration Areas. In 2024, 181 acres are targeted for treatment, with similar acreage expected annually through 2027, though herbicide use will constitute no more than 25% of all invasive species treatments. The proposal incorporates integrated pest management practices including manual methods, mechanical treatments, prescribed fire, and competitive seeding. Section 7 consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service has been completed, with biological opinions confirming that implementation is not likely to jeopardize listed species. Project Design Features are incorporated to protect water quality, wetland habitats, and sensitive species populations. The proposal was approved by the Deputy State Director with concurrent status.

1. METHOD OF APPLICATION: Spot treatments (≥ 95% of all treatments) and broadcast treatments (remaining 5% or less) using hand-held sprayers attached to vehicle-mounted trucks, utility vehicles (UTVs), all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) or backpack. Other treatment methods may include wipers, cut & frill, basal bark, hack and squirt, and injection. ATVs may be used by recipients and contractors, but not by BLM employees.
2. APPLICATION DATE(S): Treatments could occur at any time of the year, but most treatments will occur during the spring, prior to emergence of protected species, and/or in the fall after senescence. Based on species-specific requirements, target species will be treated when in active growth phases or when plants are actively translocating photosynthates back to their roots.
3. NUMBER OF APPLICATIONS: Generally, two broadcast treatments per year, per site, with additional spot treatments as necessary (providing the cumulative of all treatments remains within the allowable application rate).
II. PEST [List specific pest(s) and reason(s) for the proposed application of the pesticide]:
Target species include both non-native invasive plants and noxious weeds (authorized under the RMP), as well as native species in circumstances where they outcompete with federally listed species restoration and augmentation efforts (authorized by the RMP for certain chemicals in Prairie Restoration Areas).
Common invasive vegetation targeted in the West Eugene Wetlands includes reed canary grass, Himalayan blackberry, shining geranium, oxeye daisy, Canada thistle, orchard grass and false brome in addition to many others. Common native vegetation targeted for treatment includes Oregon ash, which frequently shades out prairie habitat due to lack of disturbance, as well as some native grasses where thatch buildup inhibits listed forb species germination. Over the life of this PUP the West Eugene
Wetlands (WEW) also expects to use herbicides to control some yet to be identified species infestations provided effective treatments could be implemented with the herbicides, adjuvants and treatment methods in this PUP. The species targeted for treatment are organized in the table below in the order their treatment key groups are presented in the District IIPM EA in Appendix C on pages 100 – 137.

III. DESIRED RESULTS OF THE APPLICATION – LINKED TO THE OBJECTIVES OF THE
APPLICATION:
The District’s desired results of the applications are to prevent reproduction and spread of non-native invasive plants, reduce populations of invasive plant species, and maintain, enhance, and restore native prairie habitats. Some herbicides, such as glyphosate, would be used to eliminate competing, invading, undesired vegetation from sites where prairie restoration and enhancement of T&E species out-plantng will occur.
Site specific objectives for the project areas where these species are proposed for herbicide treatments in
2024 can be read in Attachment C -Table 4 of the WEW Integrated Herbicide Use and Prairie Restoration
Strategy DNA 2024-2027.
IV. APPLICATION SITE DESCRIPTION:
1. ESTIMATED NUMBER OF ACRES: In 2024, 181 acres are targeted for treatment. A similar number of acres is expected to be treated in subsequent years through 2027; however, the treatment area may vary by year, and not all acres or all species listed above will be treated in any one given year. The total number of acres treated will vary considerably depending on whether a prescribed burn and subsequent broadcast herbicide treatment are accomplished. Herbicide use will make up no more than 25% of all non-native invasive species treatments— 75% of acres will be treated with non-chemical methods either exclusively or in combination with herbicides.
Treatments are not to exceed 346 acres annually within the land use allocation Prairie Restoration
Area (WEW RMP BO, pg. 90).
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION (Describe land type or use, size, stage of growth of target species, soil characteristics, and any additional information that may be important in describing the area to be treated.)
Treatments are located within the boundary of BLM owned parcels of the West Eugene
Wetlands. These areas are primarily within wet prairie habitat, with some upland habitats targeted for treatments as well. All sites are in either the Prairie Restoration Area (PRA) or the Natural
Maintenance Area (NMA). These two land use allocations (LUAs) comprise the entirety of the
WEW. Priorities will be to treat sites within the PRA first unless highly invasive weeds located within the NMA could spread. Primarily, the herbicide applications will be conducted to restore habitat to benefit T & E plant species and Bureau sensitive species such as the streaked horned lark, grasshopper sparrow, and western pond turtle by controlling monocultures such as reed canary grass and other competing vegetation.
Dispersed herbicide treatments in 2024 will be focused on habitat within the PRA; spot-spray of isolated weeds or clusters of weeds will occur both within the PRA and NMA. Sites for herbicide treatment will include the following sites; Balboa, Fir Butte, Speedway, Vinci, and Long Tom.
Sites such as Isabelle, Turtle Swale, North Taylor, Greenhill, and Hansen will also be targeted.
These sites contain a mixture of both PRA and NMA designations but because they contain threatened and endangered species both land designations will be targeted. Finally, one site, Stewart pond, located entirely within the NMA will be targeted specifically for the noxious species false brome, as well as other non-natives and nuisance weeds such as blackberry and poison oak which may hinder public access to the disc golf course or trails..
V. SENSITIVE ASPECTS AND PRECAUTIONS: In order to assist in tracking potential impacts associated with Federally threatened, endangered or proposed species, please answer the following questions and then provide the site specific conditions information.

2b. Describe the outcome of the consultation:
• USDI Fish and Wildlife Service. 2014. Biological Opinion (BO) for the West Eugene Wetlands
Resource Management Plan (01EOFW00-2014-F-0139). Consultation found that implementation of the WEW RMP was not likely to jeopardize any listed species or modify any critical habitat.
Implementation of the WEW RMP is likely to adversely affect individual listed terrestrial plants and Fender's blue butterfly within PRA LUAs; however despite adverse effects to individuals, annual restoration treatments including herbicide use would “likely to appreciably increase the effectiveness of the conservation program” (pg. 104) and present long-term benefit to listed species populations by improving critical habitat. The service concluded herbicide application is not likely to adversely affect listed birds, the listed aquatic plant, and other listed invertebrates, as well as critical habitat for all listed species. Within NMA LAUs, treatment will have no adverse effect and will be entirely beneficial. The BO addresses the impacts of herbicide application on
T&E species and provides management standards to protect them. It specifically provides for incidental take of Fender’s blue butterfly in conducting annual restoration treatments (pg. 110), and provides additional protective provisions related to herbicide treatment around Kincaid’s lupine and Fender’s blue butterfly populations in the WEW to minimize adverse effects. These provisions are incorporated in this plan and are found in Attachment B of the WEW Integrated
Herbicide Use and Prairie Restoration Strategy DNA 202-2027.

NMFS concluded the implementation of the District’s IPMAHR EA proposed action is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of Lower Columbia River (LCR) Chinook salmon
(Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), Upper Willamette River (UWR) Chinook salmon, LCR coho salmon (O. kisutch), Oregon Coast coho salmon, LCR steelhead (O. mykiss), UWR steelhead, or result in the destruction or adverse modification of their designated critical habitat. Project Design
Features adopted because of this consultation are included in Appendix 2 of the IPMAHR EA
Decision Record and they will be incorporated into in-house treatment prescriptions, as well as in contracts and agreements. The proposed action meets the “Applicability” section (§402.03) criteria since the effects of the action have no effect on listed fish species or critical habitat within the action area. Therefore, written concurrence is not required from the National Marine Fisheries
Service.
V. SENSITIVE ASPECTS AND PRECAUTIONS – (CONTINUED): Describe sensitive areas – marsh, endangered, threatened, candidate, and sensitive species habitat – and distance to application site. List measures to be taken to avoid impact to these areas):
All of the areas proposed for treatment are considered sensitive due to their wetland or riparian nature as well as the documented presence of threatened and endangered species. Treatments are a part of restoration and habitat quality improvement efforts. Specifically, treatments will be seasonally timed so that sensitive vegetation is senesced during application, and populations of living native vegetation and known animal nest sites are avoided to the extent possible and where it is compatible with restoration site preparation efforts.
Attachment B to the WEW Integrated Herbicide Use and Prairie Restoration Strategy DNA lists
Project Design Features to be implemented to protect water quality, wetland and riparian habitats, and
8 sensitive plant and animal populations within the West Eugene Wetlands, specifically. They are organized by resource program and treatment method. Specific project areas are highlighted in bold print for some PDFs designed to protect Threatened and Endangered and Bureau Sensitive plant, wildlife, fish and other aquatic species; special areas (Outstanding Natural Area, Scenic Corridor, Wild & Scenic River Corridors, and ACECs); nesting bird habitats; visual resources; recreation sites;
and adjacent landowners.
Both Hansen and Stewart Pond could be collection sites for local tribes, and coordination would be needed for Tribal members to collect plants in a safe manner in conjunction with the BLM using herbicides.
VI. NON-TARGET VEGETATION (Describe potential immediate and cumulative impacts to non-target pests in project area as a result of the pesticide application. Identify any planned mitigation measures that will be employed – BE GENERAL, SPECIFICS DISCUSSED IN THE EA):
Non-target vegetation is primarily native prairie graminoid and forb species including camas, perennial bunch grasses, and big leaf lupine. Theses species are at low risk for impacts from proposed herbicide treatments at the rates and methods intended. Weed treatments are designed and intended to facilitate vigorous growth by native species by eliminating competition from non-native invasive plant (including noxious weed) species. The risk of impacting a small percentage (<10%) of native vegetation including desirable broadleaved plants is outweighed by the reduction and/or elimination of weed species.
Small infestations may be manually removed if the infestation can be effectively controlled with manual methods. Most herbicide applications will be spot treatments using a hand wand and directed spray, thus avoiding most off-target damage. Broadcast treatments would only be implemented on dense infestations where there would be little chance of direct spray landing on non-target vegetation, or using selective herbicides that would not impact desirable vegetation. Attachment B of the WEW
Integrated Herbicide Use and Prairie Restoration Strategy DNA 2024-2027 includes several PDFs designed to prevent impacts to non-target vegetation.
VII. INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES CONSIDERED IN THE OVERALL
PROJECT:
The West Eugene Wetlands’ process for identifying priority treatment areas is described in the RMP.
The RMP describes the integrated invasive plant management methods available for use. It explains how various methods are used together programmatically to control invasive plants. The District uses indirect and direct integrated invasive plant management tools and methods to manage invasive plants. Indirect methods implemented across the District include prevention, education, awareness, planning, coordination, and cooperation and are considered just as, if not more, important than the direct control methods. Direct control methods include manual and mechanical treatment methods
(includes propane torch use), competitive planting and seeding, solarization, prescribed fire, and herbicide application. Chemical treatments are limited to 346 acres within the PRA.
Manual methods (such as pulling, digging, chopping, girdling, cutting/lopping, weed wrenches, and grubbing) are typically used on small infestations and / or when a large pool of labor is available. The
WEW often uses manual treatments in combination with other techniques.
Mechanical treatment methods typically used on the WEW include string trimmers, brush cutters, chainsaws, masticators, and mowers. The WEW has shown interest in using propane torches to manage non-native invasive plants; District fire staff are negotiating with State officials whether or not a burn plan is required for these treatments. The District sometimes uses mechanical treatments before applying herbicides.
Competitive seeding and planting are used to provide a desirable native vegetative component to compete with invasive plants in treatment areas. This is a dominant component of prairie restoration and enhancement treatments at the WEW, specifically when out-planting Threatened and Endangered plant species. Native seed may include seed from federally listed species in addition to non-listed native species.
Prescribed fires can be used for invasive plant control in conjunction with other methods.
Prescribed fire can be a pre-treatment to an herbicide application, such as when the target invasive plants have gone to seed and there is a need to remove the seed source or to remove thatch. Broadcast herbicide treatment is often, but not always, conducted after prescribed burns in order to prevent invasive vegetation outcompeting native plants during the regrowth period. Site conditions including weather and invasive species presence determine need for follow-up post-burn herbicide treatment.
Herbicides are planned for use throughout the WEW. Most treatments are expected to be spot treatments applied with a hand wand. Broadcast treatments would be implemented less than five percent of the time in support of prairie restoration efforts. Other herbicide application methods that may be used over the life of this PUP include basal bark, hack & squirt, wipers, and injection.
Herbicides are utilized:
• on pure stands of a single invasive plant species where desirable and non-target plants are scarce or absent.
• for rhizomatous invasive plant species that would otherwise require repeated cutting or pulling for control.
• on plants whose characteristics make them difficult or unfeasible to remove with non-herbicide methods.
• in areas where non-herbicide methods are cost prohibitive.
• in areas where non-herbicide methods have unacceptable adverse effects to native plants.
