Purpose

Golden Sands RC&D is sponsoring an Aquatic Invasive Species Early Detection and Rapid Response grant for the monitoring, and control of Japanese Knotweed in the Tomorrow River Watershed. Project activities: Project activities include: 1) Survey each site of JKW prior to treatment; 2) Control JKW in Tomorrow River Watershed and complete additional follow-up monitoring post-treatment; 3) Train landowners on identification of JKW and how to control ; 4) Additional Outreach to the public regarding JKW education and training Project deliverables include: Project deliverables include: 1) Japanese Knotweed survey data and maps; 2) Annual reports and final report describing the findings of the Japanese Knotweed surveys and summary of control efforts in the watershed; 3) All data will be collected following Department approved protocols and entered into DNR\2019s SWIMS database. Specific project conditions: Specific conditions for this project: Annual reports and final report need Department review and approval. WDNR AIS Coordinator will be provided with an electronic (pdf or word) copy of reports, all maps, and all invasive plants and any GIS data. This scope summarizes the project detail provided in the application and does not negate tasks/deliverables described therein.
