August 4, 2009 Invasive Plant Workshop
On August 4, 2009, MPA and LEA co-hosted an Invasive Plant Workshop at the Municipal Office meeting room in Bridgton. This workshop, presented by the
Volunteer Lakes Monitoring Program (VLMP) instructed participants how to identify invasive aquatic plants, such as non-native milfoil, and native aquatic plants.
Over 40 people attended, 11 of those from MPA. The MPA folks were all impressed with the workshop and found a challenge in identifying live samples of the different plants.
After the session, the MPA group met to map out a plan to start the Plant Survey of Moose Pond. More details will follow on this effort.
The eleven MPA members who attended and will participate in the initial plant survey are:
