This bill requires the Department of Natural Resources, under its statewide program to control invasive species, to award up to $100,000 in each fiscal year in the 2021-23 fiscal biennium in grants to local governments or American Indian tribes or bands that have declared wild parsnip to be a noxious weed for projects on public or private land to map, control, eradicate, monitor, and minimize the spread of wild parsnip. The bill allows a grant recipient to collaborate with a regional conservation organization on a project funded by the grant.
The bill appropriates $50,000 in each fiscal year in the 2021-23 fiscal biennium to the Bureau of Natural Heritage Conservation.
