Opportunity Information: Apply for 93250 9 0134
The Volunteer Based Early Detection Program is a collaborative effort between the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and Invasive Plant Control (IPC) aimed at identifying new invasive plant species in national wildlife refuges. Early detection is crucial for managing invasive plants effectively and cost-efficiently. Many refuges need support and resources to engage citizen scientists and volunteers in this mission.
This pilot project will focus on Region 5 and is intended to serve as a model for future replication across the National Wildlife Refuge System. The USFWS plans to award $39,875 to IPC via a Cooperative Agreement, as IPC holds unique qualifications for this work. Their team has extensive experience and established connections with local organizations and volunteers in the northeastern U.S. IPC specializes in training citizens to detect invasive plants early.
The project aims to enhance the ability of wildlife refuges to engage volunteers in monitoring for invasive species. Key strategies include establishing a web-based information sharing system, conducting workshops for refuge staff, creating training materials and field guides, and fostering a network for tracking invasive plants. Overall, this initiative is designed to strengthen cooperation among refuges and improve early detection efforts across the system.Apply for 93250 9 0134
