Great
Lakes and Mississippi River Interbasin Study (GLMRIS)
DOD. USACE.
Great Lakes and Mississippi River Interbasin Study.
Update 4/18/12 - GLMRIS Releases
final ANS Control Paper based on public input following
a 60-day public comment period after the initial
paper was released in Dec 2011.
GLMRIS explores
options and technologies available, collectively
known as aquatic nuisance species (ANS) controls,
that could be applied to prevent ANS transfer between
the Great Lakes and Mississippi River basins through
aquatic pathways. USACE issued
a paper that identifies available options or technologies
that may be effective for preventing ANS. See ANS
Control Paper for more information. See Stay
Involved to learn how to participate in GLMRIS.

of Agriculture (USDA)
Grant and Partnership Programs that Can Address Invasive
Species Research, Technical Assistance, Prevention
and Control - Federal Fiscal Year 2012 (Nov 22, 2011;
PDF | 167 KB)
U.S. Department
of Agriculture.
This workbook contains basic information on programs in USDA that
could be used to fund and support invasive species related projects. This list
should be a helpful place to start a search for sources of technical and financial
resources for invasive species activities but may not include all potential invasive
species funding opportunities. Please use this workbook to help in your important
and vital work in safeguarding and enhancing natural, recreational and agricultural
resources. Join with USDA in
fighting invasive species: prepare, protect, and prevent!

IPM3 --
Integrated Pest Managment Education / Registration
Information
University of Minnesota. College of Continuing
Education.
IPM3 is
a consortium of federal agencies and land-grant institiutions
dedicated to the efficient and timely delivery of
practical integrated pest information to individuals
responsible for developing and implementing Integrated
Pest Management (IPM). IPM3 provides
a Web-based, distance delivery opportunity for people
interested in IPM to
become proficient in the principles and application
of IPM.
Increasing the quality and consistency of IPM training
among Federal agencies and their adoption of an IPM approach
for invasive species management will certainly help
minimize harm to the environment, to human health,
and to wildlife.

iMapInvasives:
Geotracking invasive exotic species
The Nature Conservancy.
iMapInvasives
is a tool to serve the needs of land managers, regional
planners and others working to prevent, control or manage
invasive species. A consortium was formed to develop,
support and maintain an on-line, GIS-based, all-taxa
invasive species mapping
tool. A particular
emphasis is placed on functionality designed to aid
in Early
Detection/Rapid Response (EDRR) efforts.

Healthy
Habitats Coalition
North American Weed Management Association.
Healthy Habitats Coaltion (HHC) is a collective
group, working to enhance invasive species control
(all taxa) with various parters. The goal of the HHC
is to secure federal funding and enact legislation
to protect the nation's land and waters from the harmful
economic and environmental impacts of invasive species.
HHC includes non-governmental organizations, industry,
academia, state and county agencies, and invasive species
managers striving to:
• reduce economic and environmental harm caused
by invasive species;
• advocate structural and
budgetary change within the federal government
to achieve long-term prevention and management of invasive
species;
• coordinate invasive species management
efforts across federal, state, and local organizations
As a supporting point, the Western Governors
have recently passed a new Policy
Resolution 10-4"Combating
Invasive
Species" (DOC | 88 KB) that focuses on the regional
issue, provides supportive policy and
has outlined certain directives. |

Rapid
Response Plan for Aquatic Invasive Species
Maryland Sea Grant College Program.
The Rapid
Response Planning for Aquatic Invasive Species: A Maryland Example (Jan 2009;
PDF | 11.5 MB) serves as a tool for states in
the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond to use in developing their own Rapid Response
Plans. A template version
allows agencies to tailor the plan to address their specific needs. This example
document is a result of the state of Maryland's use of the template. The Mid-Atlantic
Panel encourages states in the Mid-Atlantic and elsewhere to download the template
to customize your State's rapid response and also provides an Aquatic
Invasive Species Sighting Report (PDF | 74 KB) form for use in your agency.
