The Delaware River Invasive Plant Partnership (DRIPP) was
formed to increase public awareness and understanding of the
impacts of non-native invasive plant species and facilitate
the exchange of information regarding these weeds in the
Delaware River watershed. The major goals of DRIPP are:
1) to unite private citizens, organizations, and academic
institutions with local, state, and federal agencies;
2) to develop an overview of what is known and what is being
done in the watershed regarding invasive plants;
3) to create a comprehensive invasive plant management plan
that includes thorough inventories to assess the impacts of
invasive plant species, and identification and
prioritization of the most problematic invasive plants;
and 4) to coordinate watershed-wide invasive plant control
efforts.
