Weed Hygiene Action Plan

The Cradle Coast NRM Weed Hygiene Action Plan (WHAP) was launched in Launceston on 16th October 2008. The WHAP has been written to help the Cradle Coast community prevent the introduction of new weeds, and minimise the spread of existing weeds. The WHAP details 39 strategic actions, with a minimum of 30 to be initiated by Cradle Coast NRM over the next five years.  Hard copies of the WHAP are available by request from Cradle Coast NRM.
