Aquatic Invasive Species Programs

Description / purpose

The Aquatic Weed Control Program includes both floating and submersed aquatic vegetation. DBW uses an Integrated Pest Management strategy with the following components: - Public information and education - Prevention - Pre-established action levels for chemical, biological and physical control - Environmental monitoring Since submersed and floating aquatic vegetation are well established in the Sacramento- San Joaquin Delta, eradication may not be feasible, while controlling invasive growth is likely to lessen negative economic and biological impacts.
