Description The Department of Ecology (Ecology) established the Aquatic Plant Monitoring Program (APMP) to improve management and prevention of invasive aquatic plants in Washington by documenting the distribution of freshwater invasive and native plant populations.

The objectives of the APMP are to (1) find and monitor populations of invasive aquatic plants, (2) maintain a database of aquatic plant observations, and (3) monitor the results of invasive aquatic plant control efforts. The resulting data will help Ecology, state and local governments, tribes, lake associations, and others with invasive aquatic plant management.

This Quality Assurance Project Plan describes the ongoing APMP and its objectives and also provides details on the types of data collected to satisfy those objectives.
