This action plan promotes a unified and aggressive regional agenda that showcases and advances ongoing efforts to develop and implement comprehensive ANS state and provincial management plans, which are the primary mechanisms for ANS prevention and control efforts in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence region at this time. It calls for regional and global approaches to ANS prevention and control; a primary emphasis on prevention of new introductions; interjurisdictional cooperation; comprehensive multi-disciplinary research; and a coordinated and responsive management structure. Augmenting the Action Plan is an Addendum adopted by the Great Lakes Panel which presents specific objectives and strategic actions designed to realize the Action Plan goals. Categories include management programs; research and monitoring; and information, education and collaboration.
