NIWAC Weeds Action Plan 2010 - 2015
The ‘NSW Weeds Action Program’ is a NSW Government initiative under the ‘NSW Invasive Species Plan’ to reduce the impact of weeds.
The WAP replaces a range of noxious weed grant programs provided by the NSW Government to local and public authorities, and trustees of reserves and commons. The WAP will target these funds to ensure that local weed control authorities and other key stakeholders meet the ISP targets for weed management.
The work to be carried out under this plan will comprise the completion of the objectives as listed in the project submission relevant to the Invasive Species Plan 2008- 2015;
The NSW Weeds Action Program plans to:
- identify and manage high risk weed species and entry pathways;
- develop and implement early weed detection capabilities;
- assist in the timely detection of new weed incursions;
- affect a quick response to eradicate or contain new weeds;
- identify and prioritise weed management programs to where benefits are greatest;
- provide effective and targeted on-ground weed control;
- increase community acceptance of, and involvement in, effective weed management;
- integrate weed management into education programs;
- improve the knowledge base for weed management;
- monitor progress of the NSW Invasive Species Plan’s implementation; and
- encourage the use of cost-sharing arrangements
