Western Regional Panel on ANS

The Western Regional Panel on ANS (WRP) is a nongovernmental advisory body to the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force (ANSTF) and serves as a forum for coordinating activities on AIS management in the West. The WRP was formed in 1997  to help limit the introduction, spread and impacts of aquatic nuisance species into the Western regions of North America. The Annual Meeting of the WRP serves as a time to collaborate, share, learn and network with AIS professionals throughout the west.
