3 Invasive Species Impacts Economic and Ecological > $100 billion/year > 40 threatened/endangered species at risk due to non native invasive species. Lost Economic Benefits From Invasive Species in the Great Lakes $2,117,000 $27,000,000 $123,553,000 $47,659,000 Raw water uses Wildlife Watching Sport Fishing Commercial Fishing Source: Notre Dame, 2010.

4 Key Multi Partner Projects RRIP-IT-UP (Rapid Response Invasive Plant Intervention Team for the Upper Peninsula) Grand Traverse Regional Invasive Species Network (16 conservation partners) TNC Coastal Invasive Program MDNR Forest Management and Wildlife Division Mounting a Rapid Response to Aquatic Invaders (DNR, MNFI, MSU partnership)

5 Mounting A Rapid Response Develop Rapid Response Program in Michigan (aquatic plants) Test and Implement Rapid Response Program Eradicate known occurrences of focal species identified for grant Build infrastructure for addressing all invaders Expand and maintain the Midwest Invasive Species Information Network (MISIN)

6 MISIN Project Overview

7 Purpose Development of a geospatial framework for the collection and management of invasive species data in support of early detection and rapid response efforts. Improve dissemination, communication, access to data. Aid in maximizing the effectiveness of local, state and regional EDRR efforts.
