More than 130,000 pot plants seized in Washington this year
December 30, 2006 - seattlepi.com
TACOMA, Wash. (AP) - As 2006 draws to a close, drug-enforcement officials in Washington say they have destroyed more than 130,000 marijuana plants this year as part of a joint state and federal eradication effort.
That's nearly the same as last year, when a record 135,000 plants were destroyed under the Washington Domestic Cannabis Eradication/Suppression Program, the federal Drug Enforcement Administration said in a news release.
This year's seizures have led to more than 340 arrests and 190 weapons seizures.
Officials attributed the number of destroyed plants to the movement of drug traffickers from Canada to Washington in an effort to avoid tightened border security.
"Washington state is susceptible to both outdoor marijuana growers, who typically use and damage public lands to ply their illegal trade, and previously Canadian-based indoor cultivators attempting to avoid cross-border detection," said DEA special-agent-in-charge Rodney Benson.
Agents said growers have dammed streams, clear-cut forest lands, used large quantities of insecticide and killed wildlife to aid outdoor drug-growing operations.

I wish I could say something and everyone would automatically believe it was true.
