This strategic plan outlines the formation of five essential subcommittees focused on funding, strategic planning, inventory mapping, education, and project coordination for effective integrated weed management. The workgroup structure includes open membership for three workgroups and two subcommittees to ensure collaborative efforts. Key tasks for Phase I involve outreach, information management, and project development, all aimed at establishing a robust weed management framework. Immediate next steps involve assigning committee tasks and establishing meeting dates to ensure progress by January 31, 2007.
