The Eastern Upper Peninsula Cooperative Weed Management Area is a partnership of city, county, state, federal, and tribal officials who have joined together with local citizens, landowners, and not-for-profit groups to share invasive plant management resources.
CWMA's have many benefits, among them are: they build community awareness and participation; they reduce the risk of control efforts to water and rare species by assuring that partners employ Best Management Practices; they provide an early detection and rapid response network; and help secure funding. CWMA activities include: education and awareness; prevention; monitoring; and integrated pest management.
