Description

1. Compile and assess the tools and current work directed towards preventing, suppressing and ultimately restoring areas with invasive annual grasses, such as cheatgrass, in different sagebrush habitats at various elevations in the Great Basin. 2. Summarize how fire prevention, suppression, and restoration efforts can be strategically implemented to reduce or help control the dominance of invasive species and describe what intra-agency coordination and funding is necessary to support the reduction and control of invasive species. 3. List and assess the level of success of existing management actions and programs that have successfully achieved reduction and control of invasive species intended to reduce wildfire frequency, intensity and spread. 4. Identify the critical information gaps that hinder more successful control and/or reduction of invasives and fire. 5. Identify any current limitations and roadblocks that hinder improved control and reduction of invasive species and fire, including identification of solutions needed to overcome those roadblocks
