| Abstract | Long Description |
The objectives of the Aquatic Plant Technical Assistance Program are to provide advice on aquatic plant identification, biology, and management to government agencies and the public, to document aquatic plant distribution and habitat through site visits, and to assist with evaluating projects supported by Freshwater Aquatic Weed Program grant money. During the 1996 field season aquatic plant data were gathered during 92 site visits to 88 waterbodies located throughout the state. Several previously unknown populations of non-native aquatic plants were recorded during the field season. These included 11 previously unknown populations of Myriophyllum spicatum, one population of Egeria densa, and two populations of Myriophyllum aquaticum. Other accomplishments during 1996 included gathering additional plants for the herbarium collection, providing educational and technical outreach, reviewing 16 project applications for Freshwater Aquatic Weed Program grant money, and providing assistance and editorial comments for the "Aquatic Plant Field Identification Guide" project. |
