Mission Statement
Non-native invasive plants (weeds) pose a serious threat to the environment of San Miguel County. The mission of the San Miguel County Weed Program is to halt the degradation of our environment by implementing an Integrated Weed Management Plan (IPM) with the goal of preventing the introduction of new invaders, early recognition of those that do arrive and sropping the spread of common noxious weeds already present within the county.
We will seek to break down borders between jurisdictions by providing information and services to residents of the county as well as to the many other major landholders including Federal, State and local government entities.
For reasons of preserving functioning native ecosystems, protecting agricultural economies, and fostering recreational and scentic values in Colorado and the San Miguel Basin specially, the mangement of weed species is essential. |
