BLM uses Early, Detection, Rapid, and Response (EDRR) to manage invasive vegetation species to effectively implement treatment. b. Objectives: To support public awareness through volunteers, identify areas infested by Buffelgrass, inventory infestations by using National Invasive Species Information Management Systems (NISIMS) program, and treating Buffelgrass to contain the rate of spread. The goal is to eradicate Buffelgrass within and around the Tucson District and the Ironwood National Monument areas. To work with partners to cooperatively manage invasive weed species across the landscape. To bring additional resources to the region such as volunteers and engaging education to the public.
