Invasive Plant Treatment Projects - EIS

Approximately 420,000 acres of National Forests and Grasslands in the Pacific Northwest Region are degraded by infestations of invasive, non-native plants. Invasive plants create a host of harmful environmental effects to native ecosystems including: displace native plants; degrade or eliminate habitat and forage for wildlife; threaten Endangered species; impact recreation; affect fire frequency; alter soil properties; decrease biodiversity; and more. Invasive plants spread across landscapes, unimpeded by ownership boundaries. Infested areas represent potential seed sources for continuation of the invasion on neighboring lands.
