1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the State Quarantine Officer may declare by regulation the weeds of the state that are noxious weeds, but a weed must not be designated as noxious which is already introduced and established in the State to such an extent as to make its control impracticable in the judgment of the State Quarantine Officer.
2. The State Quarantine Officer may temporarily designate a weed as a noxious weed if he or she determines that immediate control of the weed is necessary. A temporary designation expires 18 months after the State Quarantine Officer makes the designation.
