Description

Noxious weeds pose a direct and imminent threat to public lands, including increased risk of wildfire, decreased recreational opportunities, degraded wildlife habitat, and degraded rangelands. These threats, just as the weeds themselves, cross many jurisdictional boundaries. Having a coordinated partnership weed eradication program increases the effectiveness of treatments. This program will support an effective cooperative working relationship between Federal, State and local government activities, as well as private landowners, to implement weed inventories, noxious weed treatments, and restoration projects, as well as provide educational outreach.
