The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this grant to support projects focused on the early detection and rapid response (EDRR) to aquatic invasive species. This grant is for the critical purpose of implementing comprehensive action plans aimed at preventing, controlling, and containing these harmful species through integrated weed management (IWM) strategies. Consistent with BLM Manual 9015, which mandates an integrated pest management (IPM) approach for noxious weeds, this initiative seeks to enhance and expand efforts in managing aquatic invasive threats. The goal is to safeguard aquatic ecosystems, maintain biodiversity, and mitigate the environmental and economic impacts of invasive species.
