In 2024 using the NYSDEC “Field Protocol for Sampling Spongy Moth Egg Masses”, NYSOPRHP natural resource staff quantified that within their survey areas spongy moth egg masses totaled >1000 per acre (a management threshold likely to produce widespread tree mortality). In an effort to prevent further forest degradation, potential infrastructure loss, and potential unsafe recreational opportunities NYSOPRHP and the PIPC are proposing to conduct two aerial applications of Foray 48B or like product, (Bacillus thuringiensis Subsp.Kurstaki(Btk) an organic bioinsecticide specific to lepidoptera) via helicopter approximately a week apart with the first application scheduled for when oaks are observed at 40-60% leaf out and while spongy moth larvae are actively feeding. Previous applications of Btk have been performed within areas adjacent to Hessian Lake as recently as 2018. The helicopter would be staged in an open field area within an area of Iona Island that was previously utilized for this purpose. Approximate total area of application would be up to 1,395 acres of Parkland in 2024..

The action involves a proposal by NYS OPRHP which aims to control patches of invasive Phragmites australis that have colonized around Rockland Lake. Greater than 2.5 acres of Phragmites australis would be controlled using a wetland approved herbicide – glyphosate (53.8%) at a spray concentration of 4-6% using low volume/ low pressure backpack sprayers in targeted areas of Rockland Lake State Park between September 1st and the first killing frost. The occurrences of phragmites are representative of small patches found during the initial infestation of this plant into a native species dominated ecosystem. NYS OPRHP intends to treat these patches before they become large monocultures that will outcompete the native vegetation species found adjacent to these locations. At least one month after treatment occurs, dead standing biomass will either be cut using handheld sickle-bar cutters or left in place to fall and decompose on its own. This will allow the herbicide to translocate to the rhizomes of the plant. Herbicides will be applied by a New York State (NYS) licensed applicator in accordance with the herbicide’s labeled instructions and following agency Best Management Practices for the application of herbicides. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC) reporting tool for glyphosate application will also be utilized when appropriate.
