PDF 98 pages 45 weed species by Oregon Department of Agriculture Noxious Weed Control Program, US Department of Agriculture APHIS PPQ.
Early Detection and Rapid Response (EDRR) is an approach to
invasive species management that focuses on surveying and
monitoring at-risk areas to find infestations at their earliest stages
of invasion. Along with prevention, this method is the most
successful, cost effective, and least environmentally damaging
means of control.
If new invasive noxious weeds are allowed to go unchecked,
economic losses will exceed the present control costs of
eradication or containment by several orders of magnitude. After
initial introduction of a new invasive plant, there is a short period
of opportunity for eradication or containment. Once permanently
established, a new invader becomes a long-term management
problem. States identified include California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and USA
