The site shows known locations of noxious weeds throughout the state as collected by responsible federal, state, and local agencies. Maps are viewable at the state or county level. WeedMapper is designed to facilitate identification, reporting, and verification of noxious weeds in Oregon. Besides providing maps of known infestations of the most serious weed pests, it also contains detailed information on each weed with photographs to assist identification. Depending on the types of information desired, WeedMapper users can follow these links: General information about noxious (A,B,T listed) weed species Find the geographic distribution of a weed species Report weed locations to ODA Links to other websites of interest It is our hope that WeedMapper will foster greater cooperation between landowners, federal, state, and county agencies and improve the effectiveness of weed control programs.  United States Department of Agriculture The Upper Columbia RC&D is a partner of the USDA RC&D  National Association of RC&D Councils Homepage for the National Association of Resource, Conservation and Development Councils  Oregon RC&D Area Map Oregon State map of OR RC&D geographic service areas  Pay Your Pay Pal Fall Conference Here  Resource Conservation & Development Program A description of the RC&D program and directory of RC&D offices, council chairpersons, state and regional associations, and others.
