Background
In March, the event Phragmites Invasions in Michigan: A Symposium to Build
Capacity for Management was held to share information and facilitate
dialogue on phragmites management and control and innovative research. A
principal outcome from the symposium was to inform development of a
strategic framework to advance effective, sustainable management of invasive
phragmites throughout the state of Michigan. The strategic framework will
recommend key actions to advance phragmites management and control on a
coordinated basis and will also identify roles, responsibilities and
opportunities for implementation. A
<http://glc.org/ans/phragmites/symposium2011-recap.html> summary of
symposium proceedings is now available online.
