Of particular concern in the Columbia River Basin, is the impact of flowering rush on spawning habitat for native salmonid species. One of the challenges of using aquatic herbicides to manage aquatic vegetation growing in flowing water systems, is achieving sufficient herbicide-plant contact time for successful plant control. This video summarizes a unique approach to overcome this challenge by utilizing a bubble barrier system to curtail water flow, confine herbicide treatment, improve weed control, all while reducing impacts to non-target species. This project was initiated in 2018 with funding from the Aquatic Plant Control Research Program and addresses a research Statement of Need submitted by the Walla Walla District. It also represents a collaboration between the ERDC-EL, USACE Walla Walla District, USDA-ARS, and industry partners.

Submitted by Michael Watkins, NWK The Bureau of Reclamation has assembled assessment teams consisting of an engineer and a biologist that are specially trained to conduct Facility Vulnerability Assessments for dams and power plants. These teams are available to conduct FVAs for other government agencies at a reasonable cost. In 2010 KCD MIPRed funds to BOR and their assessment teams conducted Facility Vulnerability Assessments for our 18 lake projects including two hydro power plants at a cost of $109,492.00. The assessment teams visited each lake project and produced a report that outlines potential problem areas if the lakes were to become infested with Dreissenid Mussels.
