Crook County Weed Control
Crook County is committed to the control
of the spread of noxious weeds, which are
plant species not native to the area and
which have detrimental effects on native
flora and fauna. They are
also committed to domestic
and agricultural pursuits. The
Oregon Department of
Agriculture has designated
99 plant species as noxious
weeds by Oregon law. Of the
99 species listed by the
O.D.A., 35 of these species
exist in Crook County.
While Crook County does
spray and utilize other
methods to control and
contain unwanted vegeta-
tion on public property and
rights of way, it is the legal
responsibility of the prop-
erty owner to ensure that
noxious weeds are con-
trolled on their lands. The
Crook County weed master
can be of great assistance in
helping property owners
develop the most efficient
and cost-effective plans for
controlling and identifying
noxious weeds.
Office Hours:
6:30 a.m. to
4:30 p.m. Monday through
Thursday. They are closed
Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and
all legal holidays.
