Description The Willapa/Grays Harbor Oyster Growers Association (the Association) has submitted an application to the Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) for a water quality discharge permit (NPDES) to use a new aquatic pesticide to control burrowing shrimp. The proposed permit would allow use of imidacloprid to control burrowing shrimp on commercial shellfish beds in Willapa Bay and Grays Harbor.
