National Park Service

Description

This project will involve 2-3 phases of treatment and restoration at each park unit that the Minnesota Conservation Corps will perform plant management and restoration work including: Badlands National Park, Fort Union Trading Post National Historical Site, Knife River Indian Villages National Historical Park, Theodore Roosevelt National Park, Scotts Bluff Nationol Monument, Agate Fossil Beds National Monument . The work will engage PLC members in field work consisting of exotic plant treatment, seed collection and site restoration and increase their knowledge and understanding of these projects. The phases include weed management in selected areas, seed collection and grow-out to increase seed availability and lastly, restoration with native species of the weed management site itself. This will be a multi-year effort for the treatment, monitoring and restoration of the sites.
