ROCK RIVER COALITION, INC: Knotweed Eradication-Badfish Creek

The Rock River Coalition (RRC) proposes control of a population of Japanese Knotweed which occupies the bank of Badfish Creek at the Riley Road bridge crossing in Rock County. The Friends of Badfish Creek, a chapter of the RRC, will do the work of purchasing all the initial supplies, precisely delineating the boundaries of the clones, knocking down the old stalks, and doing herbicide treatments, all with the help of many volunteers. An educational program will be presented, and educational signs will be posted at the site. The overall goal of this project is complete eradication of this species in and around the existing clones, which are mapped in the application.
