Book excerpt: Aquatic Nuisance Species (ANS) are invasive plants and animals that are transported and released, intentionally or unintentionally, outside of their historic range ANS can completely alter aquatic systems by destroying native plant and animal habitats; threatening the diversity and abundance of native species; and damage industrial, agricultural, and recreational activities dependent on surface waters. The significance of Colorado's aquatic resources requires a coordinated protection effort focused on prevention and coherent rapid response to the risk posed by ANS. The purpose of Colorado's Aquatic Nuisance Species Management Plan is to recommend a statewide comprehensive approach to prevent and manage ANS through collaborative strategies.

Committee on the St. Lawrence Seaway:Options to Eliminate Introduction of Nonindigenous Species into the Great Lakes, Phase 2 and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2008-09-18 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Laurentian Great Lakes are the largest unfrozen reservoir of freshwater on earth, accounting for almost one-fifth of the worlds fresh surface water. They are vital to the economy of the Great Lakes region and to the quality of life of its residents, providing drinking water for more than 33 million people in Canada and the United States, supplying hydroelectric power, supporting industries, providing waterborne transportation, and offering a variety of recreational opportunities. Human activities have, however, imposed stresses on the Great Lakes basins ecological integrity, and one of these stresses the introduction of nonindigenous species of animals and plants is the focus of this report. The opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1959 provided a route into the Great Lakes not only for international maritime trade but also for aquatic invasive species (AIS) carried in the ballast water needed by ships to operate safely. Ships ballast water is not the only vector by which AIS enter the Great Lakes, but it has accounted for 55 to 70 percent of reported AIS introductions since 1959, including that of the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aquatic invasive species -- harmful, non-native plants, animals, and microorganisms living in aquatic habitats -- damage ecosystems or threaten commercial, agricultural, and recreational activities. The Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990 created the Task Force and required it to develop an aquatic nuisance species program. The Water Resources Reform and Development Act of 2014 includes a provision that the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) assess federal costs of, and spending on, aquatic invasive species. This book examines how much Task Force member agencies expended addressing aquatic invasive species for fiscal years 2012-2014; activities conducted by Task Force member agencies and challenges in addressing aquatic invasive species; and the extent to which the Task Force has measured progress in achieving the goals of its 2013-2017 strategic plan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Species Prevention and Control Act (NANPCA), passed by Congress in 1990, allows for the creation of regional panels to establish regional priorities and develop action plans for dealing with invasive species. The first few sections of this report analyze the structure and activities of the Great Lakes, the Western Regional, and the Northeast Regional Panels. The structure and activities of the Gulf of Mexico Regional Panel are then examined. The authors suggest future actions the Gulf panel should take to most effectively support interstate cooperation and assist the states with the development and implementation of regional plans"--National Sea Grant Library publication website.
