Aquatic Nuisance Species

We help preventing and controlling the spread of aquatic nuisance species in partnership with Federal, State, Tribal, and other conservation organizations. For example, we support the 100th Meridian Initiative to help prevent the spread of zebra mussels into the West. We also work with international partners to control the parasitic sea lamprey.
