Hydro One Herbicide Use – Update

21 August 2019 | 2 Comments

Further to our post of July 26, the Dysart Council is proceeding on a path to reverse its position to ban the use of Garlon (a strong herbicide to suppress plant growth) by Hydro One. DSLPOA along with the other lake associations in Dysart have taken the position that the original plan by Dysart to ban its use should be maintained. Our DSLPOA President Rick Wesselman will be presenting at the Dysart Council meeting (August 27, 9 AM, Council Chambers).
