Subject: [ma-eppc] Request for help on a survey on the impact of Biological
Control of Purple Loosestrife in North America

Would you please past this messages on to other sources in both the US and
Canada.  Evaluation of the purple loosestrife biological control program is
strengthened by each additional data set added to the web survey


Please assist us on a survey to determine the impact of biological control
on purple loosestrife
We have developed a questionnaire to assist our understanding of the impact
of biological control on purple loosestrife. The Web-based survey is
available at http://survey2.inquisiteasp.com/surveys/XWTMH4. We ask you, as
a weed control professional or land manager who has released insects on
purple loosestrife, to fill out the Web form. Please fill out a separate
form for each insect release site with before and after data. This
information will be collected and analyzed to assist us in evaluating
biologically-based tactics for purple loosestrife control.
