| Short Description |
In 2002, the Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) developed six National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits for the use of aquatic pesticides in lakes, rivers and estuaries in Washington state. Aquatic pesticides include a wide assortment of chemicals that kill, attract, repel or otherwise control the growth of aquatic pests. The permits provide coverage under the federal Clean Water Act for aquatic pesticide applications. | |
