The biology and ecology of invasive plants are a driving factor in their impacts on natural areas, while past disturbance, land use, soils and other factors can strongly influence the success of restoration efforts. We will explore a variety of topics relating to invasion biology and restoration: impacts of invasive plants on whole ecosystems, invasive plant management partnerships at multiple spatial scales, the news in latest biocontrol, and melding restoration with working landscapes. Additionally, we will present two rapid-fire sessions of short, 7-minute talks, a Monday evening poster pub, and field trips to local restoration sites. Plenty of time will be available for questions, discussion, and networking with speakers and attendees. We invite you to join us for this 10th Mid-Atlantic Invasive Plant Council Conference. It will be an exciting and informative two-day meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:15.0pt;background:white'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'>List of Speakers<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellpadding=0 width=1200 style='width:12.5in'><tr><td style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'><br><br></span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:windowtext'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr><tr><td style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'><br><br></span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:windowtext'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr><tr><td style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:windowtext'><br><br></span><span style='font-size:10.5pt;color:windowtext'><o:p></o:p></span></p></td></tr><tr><td style='padding:.75pt .75pt .75pt .75pt'></td></tr></table><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:15.0pt;background:white'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'>Conference Agenda<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:7.5pt;background:white'><b><u><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:green'><br><br></span></u></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:7.5pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:7.5pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:15.0pt;background:white'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'>Registration & Fees<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'><br><br><i><br><br></i><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:15.0pt;background:white'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'>Who Should Attend<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:15.0pt;background:white'><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#545454'>Overnight Accommodations<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div id="DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2"><br />
