Iowa. The Iowa Noxious weed law 317 requires all 99 counties in Iowa to appoint a Weed Commissioner. A State weed Commissioner oversee's the County Commissioners to ensure enforcement.
Basically if a weed is given Noxious status in Iowa it is illegal for that plant to go to seed on any property, it is also illegal to transport noxious weed seed in any manner including hay or seed stock. The County Weed Commissioner is an Officer of the Board of Supervisors in his county and has jurisdiction over all property within his county including private, city, state, federal, and railroad property. The Weed Commissioner is allowed to enter any property within the county but only under strict rules of enforcing the weed law. Basically I am the weed cop in my county. I give a five day compliance notification with a fine and then I am authorized to control or hire someone to control the weeds. All the expenses are put on property taxes by state law.
Most of the complaints I get are about Canada Thistle or Musk Thistle and almost every one of them is a farmer calling in a neighbor because he doesn't want them spreading to his land. Acreage owners, especially those that buy a lot of hay, don't like me very much, but thats the nature of the position.
