Fish and Wildlife Service

Description

Using appropriations to the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) anticipates providing grants to support implementation of Great Lakes State Aquatic Invasive Species Management Plans (State AIS Plans), and support for the implementation of a Great Lakes Interstate Aquatic Invasive Species Management Plan (Interstate AIS Plan). State AIS Plans have been transmitted by state governors and then approved by the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force. The Interstate AIS Plan will not be submitted to the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force for review and approval. All state grants will be awarded based on a competitive process for which only Great Lakes states are eligible.
