Fish and Aquatic Conservation - Aquatic Invasive Species is sponsored by INTERIOR, DEPARTMENT OF THE. Details vary by subprogram.
The Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force (ANSTF) subprogram provides support for ANSTF Regional Panels and State/Interstate Aquatic Nuisance Species Management Plans (ANS). ANSTF funding helps the six regional ANSTF panels established under the Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act (NANPCA) to carry out their responsibilities under NANPCA, including engaging stakeholders, identifying priorities, coordinating activities, and providing advice. ANS funding authorized in NANPCA supports state or interstate organizations to implement their ANSTF-approved ANS Plans. Only states or interstate organizations with an approved plan are eligible for this annual support.
The Invasive Carp subprogram works cooperatively with partners to assess priority needs across the Mississippi River Sub-basins (Upper Mississippi River, Missouri River, Arkansas-Red-White River, Lower Mississippi River, Tennessee Cumberland River, and Ohio River including in Kentucky Lake, Lake Barkley) and the Great Lakes and determine the most effective allocation of resources to support goals identified in the Management and Control Plan for Bighead, Black, Grass, and Silver Carps in the United States (National Plan).
The Quagga/Zebra Mussel Action Plan (QZAP) subprogram funds projects addressing the top priorities in the Quagga/Zebra Mussel Action Plan for Western U.S. Waters (QZAP 2.0) and will be limited to states within the boundaries of the Western Regional Panel within the United States. Projects may address limiting the spread of invasive mussels through: 1) protecting western ecosystems through support and/or establishment of prevention programs for invasive mussels at identified high risk control points; 2) limiting the spread of invasive mussels through containment by increasing compliance with federal, state, local and tribal laws; 3) increasing the effectiveness of outreach and education efforts to help advance prevention efforts; 4) building capacity to detect and respond to new invasive mussel infestations; and 5) conducting research that benefits the priorities listed above, including (but not limited to) social science research to evaluate the effectiveness of invasive species prevention messaging.
