6) Develop a process to include in the LIPMS a trigger to identify, map and control Phragmites on vacant lands and future development lands and to work with the various owners. This process could start as early as pre-consultation, be included as standard recommendations in an EIS, form part of Draft approvals and drawings, development agreements, and draft a standard condition to be used. Further opportunities can include proactively identifying Phragmites on vacant lands and future development lands without an application as a trigger and have permissions in place to control.
