Seymour Lake Excerpts from Targeted BC Aquatic Invasive Plant Inventories

The presence of aquatic invasive plants in waterbodies throughout British Columbia have caused significant ecological and economic damage. Targeted aquatic invasive plant inventories and treatments were carried out in priority waterbodies throughout the province. Priority waterbodies were identified by The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations and a work plan was developed. This brief report covers the removal of the invasive species yellow floating heart (Nymphoides peltata) on Seymour Lake in Smithers, British Columbia.
