National Report
Pesticide Use on National Forest System Lands
In Fiscal Year 2002
Each year, Forest Service field units must report to the Washington Office the name and quantities of
pesticides used on National Forest System lands. A listing of pesticide active ingredients and the amounts
used by field units is compiled on a National and Regional basis. The report contains the purpose, by
management objective, for which the pesticide was used and the total number of units (i.e. acres, trees,
greenhouses) treated with each pesticide. In addition, the report contains a listing of biological control agents
that have been released for the purpose of controlling invasive plant species.
Summary of Fiscal Year 2002
In fiscal year 2002, Forest Service units applied a total of 144,634 lbs. of pesticides to 260,289 acres of
National Forest System (NFS) land. Pesticides are used on NFS lands for a number of management
operations that include: 1. Thinning or control of specific trees to promote growth of desirable species; 2.
Thinning or control of vegetation to reduce fire fuel; 3. Site preparation for planting of trees; 4. Control of
vegetation on highways, utility, and railroad rights-of -way in forests, 5. Control of vegetation in forest
nurseries and riparian areas; 6. Suppression of insects and diseases; and 7. Management of aquatic plants
and fish.
The land area treated with pesticides is very small and represents approximately one tenth of one percent of
the total forested and rangeland area within the NFS lands. The amount of pesticides used in Fiscal Year
2002 has decreased by 9.0% while the acreage treated has increased by 0.145% over the previous year.
Since 1996, the use of pesticides by the Forest Service has remained below 200,000 pounds, but the
acreage treated over the same period has fluctuated slightly, averaging approximately 230,000 acres per
year.
