2018 Annual Report

INTRODUCTION

2018 SUMMARY

This report is an attempt to boil down all of our efforts and programs to an easy to use and

digestible format. The building blocks of an effective weed control plan are prevention,

control, monitoring, and education. We try to achieve success at each of these components

by using a variety of programs. Noxious weeds and pests are not going away any time soon

and neither are our efforts to control them and reduce them to a level that make them non-

economically or non-ecologically threatening.

The 2018 season saw many changes with our

seasonal crews. We lost five seasonals that

had three or more years of experience. We

had five new seasonals this year, and we lost

three of them by the middle of July. I guess

you could call this another typical year in the

sense that we did not start any new long-term

projects. The assistant supervisors are the

best and they are the reason that we have the

successful programs and crews that we do.

Without them, we would simply be an ordinary

district with ordinary programs and the status

quo would be good enough. I believe that we

run one of the most efficient operations in the

state.

We managed to get through the year without any major injuries and zero workman’s

compensation claims in 2018. Due to two claims in 2016, our rate is 2.68%. Our rates will

begin decreasing as claims from 2016 exit their calculation period. Considering the types of

work that we do and the lands/conditions that we operate, it says a lot for our training and

emphasis on safety. No weed or pest is worth life or limb.

For the fiscal year 2018-2019, our county mill levy experienced a 12% increase, which

equates to approximately $75,000 for the fiscal year. The year before our county mill levy

decreased 28%, which represents $237,000. We have approximately $566,638 in our budget

reserves: $205k depreciation and $373k uncommitted reserve. If we added the depreciation

2018 Annual Report

to the uncommitted reserve, we would have 83.3% of one mill, which could fund ten months

of our normal operations.

We continued our backcountry efforts to treat Dalmatian toadflax in Boulder Basin and the

Upper Greybull river drainage. In Boulder Basin, we feel like we have a good idea of where all

of the main infestations are. We continue to treat all previously known patches of Dalmatian

toadflax and expand out to new areas. Last year, several new infestations were discovered in

previously surveyed areas. Many of these infestations were either single plants or very small

patches, but some infestations were large. Those areas received a lot of attention and the

treatments were successful. The crews were able to get ahead of them before they could

establish root systems and seed banks. This tells us that the toadflax is still being spread by

wildlife and underscores the need to continue working. In the Greybull River drainage, all of

the known infestations were visited again and only one site had any living plants present. The

survey expanded from Rawhide creek to the Meeteetse creek drainage. No new Dalmatian

toadflax infestations were found and only minimal noxious weed infestations. The Jack creek

and the Francs Fork of the Greybull were also inventoried with no Dalmatian toadflax found.

We have inventoried every named drainage between Venus creek and Meeteetse creek. I am

very proud of all of the work that has been completed down there and feel confident of the

size and location of the infestations. We can now focus our efforts on treatments in the

Greybull river drainage and expand into new areas such as Gooseberry creek and a few

drainages of the Wood River. We will also do more inventory and treatment work on the

northeast portion of Carter Mountain.

This was the seventh straight year that we have not had any significant problems with

grasshoppers or Mormon crickets in the county. There are always small hotspots, but it looks

like we will not be experiencing any outbreaks into the near future. APHIS conducted more

survey work in the county than in years past. Monitoring will continue for the localized

hotspots.

2018 Annual Report

2018 was another big year for

treatment on BLM lands. We

completed our standard treatment

program, and we concluded a large

project in 15-Mile creek. The project

was extensive and took three years to

complete. We have now controlled all

known salt cedar infestations from

Hwy 120 down to the Big

Horn/Washakie/Park county lines.

We began a salt cedar project in the

Whistle creek area and completed

several stems of the watershed. The

crews discovered much more salt

cedar than we anticipated. Work is

continuing this winter and will most

likely be completed in 2019. We conducted a lot of cheatgrass control associated with the

Whit fire on the Northfork and Southfork. The 2018 treatments were coupled with the 2017

treatments, so all of the affected areas of the fire have been treated. More neighboring

landowners participated in the cheatgrass program this year and again took advantage of the

helicopter being in the area and available to treat cheatgrass. Cheatgrass treatments blocks

began in the Whistle creek, Whistle creek road, and Gilmore hill areas of the McCullough

Peaks. Approximately 1,500 acres were treated with plans to treat thousands more in the

coming years. The Powerline fire in the Oregon Basin area was slated for treatment last fall,

but environmental conditions did not allow for it. Treatment will occur in the fall of 2019.

We have funded biological control research for years, and one of the noxious weeds we focus

on is Russian knapweed. Releases made in previous years have resulted in expansions of

the insects. Impact studies have shown that this bioagent can drastically reduce above

ground biomass and inhibit fruit and seed production. Jaapiella ivanikovva, a gall midge that

also attacks Russian knapweed is showing signs of expansion. Biocontrol is the bedrock of

the control programs for Dalmatian toadflax and musk thistle. Without the agents in place,

those two plants would most likely infest tens of thousands more acres than they already do.

2018 Annual Report

SPRAY BUDGETS

2018 saw spray budgets vary a little bit. We received increases from the City of Cody, USFS,

and BLM because of additional cheatgrass spraying. We return approximately $60k to the

City of Cody every year after we do all of their noxious weeds, mosquito, and bareground

treatments. The budgets from our partners remain to be more than sufficient to sustain

programs from year to year, and we are able to carry any unused funds into the next year if

we need to do so. This is valuable as it allows us to carry out and finish projects if funding

shortfalls were ever to occur.

2018 Annual Report

FY 2018-19 BUDGET HILIGHTS

The budget revenue for this fiscal year had a slight increase over the last couple of years. The

county’s valuation increased from $604,982,000 to $679,629,000 that resulted in an increase

of $74,647 to our general fund. This increase to the county valuation and the use of $152,524

in cash carry-over from the previous year allowed us to balance our budget this year. We

may need to rethink some of our budget expenditures or use some of our reserve funds next

fiscal year since we may not have this cash carry-over to balance the budget. The amount of

contract revenue was nearly the same but was aided by a RMEF and a State & Private

Forestry grant, which allowed us to get more spraying done. These funds allowed us to treat

and locate previously unknown infestations and to continue to increase our presence in the

backcountry. We were then able to shift other USFS funds to support our own crews. We had

a cash carryover of $259,046, which allowed us to keep our services as normal and actually

increase our operations budget by 8.1%. The total reserve fund now sits at $566,638 of which

about 34% is in vehicle depreciation reserve. The vehicle depreciation reserve is in a very

strong position because the vehicles were placed on a depreciation timeline that will end up

being far smaller than the life of the vehicles. We did use $12,000 of our depreciation reserve

funds to purchase an additional rental range seeder and we transferred the balance of the

“Restricted Fund – Legally Enforced” to our “Emergency Reserve – Not Committed” account

since it had been recorded in the wrong category in the budget. We do not have any legally

enforced funds at this time.

BIOCONTROL RELEASES

Usually, our largest biocontrol release is Hadroplontus litura (Canada thistle stem mining

weevil). Our supplier based in Bozeman was only able to provide us with 30 releases of the

65 we ordered. Twenty-five releases went to a private ranch in Meeteetse that distributed

them in a couple of different drainages. We did not make any additional releases of Mecinus

janthiniformis (Dalmatian toadflax stem mining weevil) due to the uniform establishment on

nearly all toadflax infestations. Russian knapweed releases remain the same. Abundant galls

of Jaapiella, Russian knapweed gall former, were located in a subdivision northwest of

Powell. That is a very encouraging sign that they are moving and forming new infestations

away from initial release locations.

2018 Annual Report

SUBDIVISIONS AND SPECIAL USE PERMITS

The program is a proactive approach aimed at preventing the spread of noxious weeds; educate landowners/managers/developers as to the threat of said species, and to provide assistance in mitigating any noxious weed species. Since the program began, PCWP staff has performed 345 + initial inspection for any regulated disturbance within the County (through December 2018). Many factors are examined including past history, proposed use, prior disturbance, species present, etc. based on the information presented by the applicant and our initial survey. Follow up inspections will occur for up to 5 years. Since April of 2008, the requirement for submittal of a Long-Term Noxious Weed Management Plan (LTNWMP) is written in the Park County Development Standards and Regulations (Section 3-218, Appendix 4 D: 7).
