JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK FORMING AN INVASIVE SPECIES PLAN

Invasive non-native plants are ones that have been introduced to an ecosystem as a direct or indirect result of human activity. Reporter Dan Stork says that Joshua Tree National Park wants to do something about them, and wants public input…
Public input is being sought regarding the National Park Service’s proposed Invasive Species Management Plan at Joshua Tree National Park. The goal of invasive plant management is to maintain native plant communities by preventing and removing invasive plants possibly using new herbicides as part of an integrated approach to the problem.
The public has opportunities to comment on the project—now during this initial project scoping and again following release of an environmental assessment. The assessment will take in alternatives, mitigation measures, and impacts.
Comments will be accepted through March 31, 2015. They can be submitted online or by mail at:
