Years ago our legislature established the Exotic Aquatic Weeds and Species Committee. Members are from the legislature, DES, Agriculture, F & G, NH Lakes, NH Rivers Council and more. Most visibly, they work to prevent and control milfoil, but they also coordinate with folks on Champlain and the great lakes. They've seen this coming from around the world as ships ply the St Lawrence Seaway and return from the great lakes. While each species requires different control approaches, at least the information flows rapidly through ther coordinating groups.
