Deadline: 31-May-22
The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), an agency under the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), is announcing availability of funding to assess the impact of prior invasive species funding on agriculture and forested lands, and develop workplans for continued control if needed.
Funding for this project is through the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative and Conservation Technical Assistance. Funding can only be utilized in the Great Lakes watersheds. This project will provide technical assistance to assess the effectiveness of past invasive species control funded through NRCS, and assist with technical assistance to provide conservation plans for continued treatment or maintenance as needed. This project will help guide future policy decisions for treatment of invasive species through program dollars, streamline and initiate the invasive species follow-up process with past program participants, and educate past program participants on continued maintenance requirements.
