Plant Health Noxious Weed List
Ohio Administrative Code rule 901:5-37-01 establishes a list of prohibited noxious weed species. This list of noxious weeds established by the Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA) is used by the Ohio Department of Transportation, boards of county commissioners, township trustees, and street commissioners of a municipal corporation in order to control the growth of such species in their respective jurisdictions. Typically, these entities utilize this authority to prevent these species from encroaching onto roadways and rights-of-ways to ensure rider safety.
The rules have been reviewed as part of the five-year rule review process and ODA is proposing to amend the Noxious Weeds List to include Spotted knapweed.
- (Amended) OAC 901:5-37-01
