Furnas County weed superintendent reports perfect state evaluation, seeks coordination with road crews

Todd Weverka, the Furnas County Weed Superintendent, told the Weed District Board on Feb. 25 that the Nebraska Department of Agriculture conducted an office evaluation in January and awarded the office 1,000 out of 1,000 possible points. He said matching funds may be available from the Nebraska Environmental Trust and that he will set up meetings and training with the county road departments to improve control and reporting of noxious weeds. Weverka also reported he attended a February conference for continuing-education credits and will need to obtain additional CE credits for 2025.
