Title: Safeguarding America’s Lands and Waters from Invasive Species: A National Framework for Early Detection and Rapid Response
Publisher: US Department of the Interior
Description: As called for in the Priority Agenda, this report proposes a national EDRR framework (EDRR Framework) that provides an organizational structure for national coordination and communication among Federal and non-Federal entities to increase the overall effectiveness of EDRR efforts, and thus protect ‘priority landscapes and aquatic areas’ from the impacts of invasive species. In the context of the EDRR Framework, priority landscapes and aquatic areas are generally regarded as those lands and waters (freshwater, coastal, and marine) identified by Federal, state, or tribal entities as areas of importance, such as for natural resource stewardship, conservation, or biodiversity purposes.
