Resumen

This chapter of the Maine Revised Statutes concerns invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species control. The Interagency Task Force on Invasive Aquatic Plants and Nuisance Species is established to advise the department on matters pertaining to research, control and eradication of invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species. The task force may make recommendations to the department on the importation and transportation of invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species; monitoring and educational programs aimed at the control of invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species; a comprehensive state invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species management plan that meets the requirements of the National Invasive Species Act of 1996, 16 United States Code, Section 4722; a statewide inventory of invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species; and methods to improve cooperation of state, provincial, federal and nongovernmental agencies in the area of invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species prevention and control. The task force shall also recommend to the department an action plan to protect the State's inland waters from invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species. That plan may include, but is not limited to, identification of inland waters of the State that are known to be infested with invasive aquatic plants and nuisance species; vulnerability assessment; lake monitoring program; response program; and training and public information materials.
