Approach

Increase non-native species control efforts.

Tactics

  • Implement early detection, rapid response for non-native species treatment.
  • Coordinate invasive species management, funding, and support between agencies.
  • Include invasive species prevention strategies in all projects.
  • Use integrated weed management (i.e. chemical, biological, mechanical, and manual control; education, targeted grazing)
  • Develop weed management areas and coordinate management with partners.
