Document Description
The purpose of the Slender False Brome Intergrated Pest Management Program is to control an estimated 100 acres of land that have been infested, or that could be infested in the future, by slender false brome (Brachypodium sylvaticum), an invasive weed. Slender false brome competes with native forest and grassland species, inhibits tree seedling establishment, and alters native fire regimes, threatening the biodiversity of California's redwood forests and other sensitive habitats. The proposed program would be implemented on an estimated 100 acres throughout a 9,200-acre project area in unincorporated San Mateo County, the town of Woodside, and the town of Portola Valley, utilizing cooperative control efforts by public and private landowners. In 2009, and perhaps in future years depending on funding, MROSD will reimburse landowners for treatment of slender false brome on non-MROSD property.
