The PA Sea Grant Program is hosting a Responding To Hydrilla In The Lake Erie Watershed Workshop November 16 at the Tom Ridge Environmental Center at Presque Isle State Park in Erie from 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
This rapid response exercise is designed to train aquatic invasive species professionals about the fundamentals of the Pennsylvania Rapid Response Plan, and their vital role in effective response to a new aquatic species infestation.
Participants will engage in exercises designed to simulate real-life scenarios and the steps involved in an effective response.
This training is designed for professional field biologists, natural resource managers, state agency staff, and others who work with aquatic invasive species.
