Funding sources for invasive species monitoring and control
- USDA APHIS provides funding for monitoring, management, research and education about invasive species with Plant Protection Act Section 7721.
- The Bureau of Indian Affairs Invasive Species Program provides funding to many Tribal communities and can help cover the costs to develop management plans, and monitor and control invasive species populations. These funds can also be used to match other sources of federal funding. Contact Robert Compton for more information.
- The Bureau of Reclamation may also have funding avialable to help survey for and manage aquatic invasive species. Contact Heidi McMaster for more details about funding in the Pacific Northwest.
- The European Green Crab Emergency Measure Funding Solicitation has a rolling deadline until funding is fully obligated.
