[APWG] NH Department of Transportation best management practices re invasive plants

[corgis]

Good news from the NH Department of Transportation! DOT has just produced a control manual for invasive plants, intended for DOT folks and others like town DPWs. It contains information about best management practices to reduce the likelihood of introducing invasive plants into new areas via maintenance and construction activities.

NH DOT is now preparing hard copies for its staff, and also planning training sessions.

This fulfills a recommendation of the new Water Resources chapter of the Connecticut River Management Plan.
