Effectiveness of Invasive Plant Treatments at Mount Greylock and Westfield River, MA

Report developed by FEMC following analysis of data provided by Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation for invasive plant treatment effectiveness. Three invasive plants (glossy buckthorn, Japanese knotweed, and honeysuckle) were treated at sites on the Westfield River or Mount Greylock to remove the invasive plants. Additional sampling of the invasive plant populations were conducted. Data was analyzed to determine if the treatments resulted in reduced populations.
