Alex Patia reports
There is another water lettuce outbreak at Sweetwater Wetlands so Tucson
Water will be spraying tomorrow morning to try and kill it all before it
can spread any further and choke out all open water. Because the herbicide
is sprayed by drone the wetlands will be closed tomorrow morning, Friday
8/29, until 9 am. The current water lettuce is growing just west of the
Ramada/ gazebo, please let me know if you see it growing elsewhere.
Pictures show the impacted area looking west from the Ramada.
