| 摘要： | The goals of the 100th Meridian Initiative are to: (1) prevent the spread of zebra mussels and other ANS in the 100th meridian jurisdictions and west and (2) monitor and control zebra mussels and other ANS if detected in these areas. These goals will be achieved by addressing seven components: (1) information and education, (2) voluntary boat inspections and boater surveys, (3) commercially hauled boats, (4) monitoring, (5) rapid response, (6) identification and risk assessment of additional pathways, and (7) evaluation. The 100th Meridian Initiative represents the first comprehensive and strategically focused effort, involving Federal, State, Tribal and Provincial entities, potentially affected industries, and other interested parties to begin addressing pathways to prevent the westward spread of zebra mussels and other ANS. Success will depend on the commitment and support of these groups to aggressively combat the introduction and spread of these destructive invaders. |
