> Subject: Environmental review completed for imidacloprid, report evaluates impacts of using pesticide to control burrowing shrimp

> The Washington Department of Ecology has completed the final environmental assessment of a proposal to use the pesticide imidacloprid to control burrowing shrimp.
> Shellfish growers from Willapa Grays Harbor Oyster Growers Association (WGHOGA) have requested a permit to use the pesticide imidacloprid to control burrowing shrimp on commercial shellfish beds in Willapa Bay and Grays Harbor. Ecology's findings have been adopted in a formal report, called a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement. No preferred alternative was identified.
