Kauai Invasive Species Committee Outreach- 2017 1 Title: Kauai Invasive Species Committee Outreach Organization: Kauaʻi Invasive Species Committee, Pacific Cooperative Studies Unit, UH Award: $76,505 Introduction: The Kauaʻi Invasive Species Committee (KISC) is a voluntary partnership of government, private, non-profit organizations, and individuals working together to: prevent the introduction of potentially damaging pest species to the island, eliminate recently arrived (incipient) pests before they spread beyond control, manage established pests in order to reduce their negative impacts, and educate and involve the public as to the magnitude of the invasive species problem and the need for control programs such as KISC. Invasive species outreach and education is an integral component of on- the-ground detection and control efforts by KISC. Community collaboration is essential in the discovery, prevention, and control of target and early detection invasive species. Achievements in 2017 Pono Endorsement Program: The Pono Endorsement Program was developed in partnership with Plant Pono, a program of Coordinating Group of Alien Pest Species. The Pono Endorsement Program is a voluntary partnership between any nursery or landscaping business, Plant Pono, and KISC. Pono Endorsed businesses are those who practice and promote making “pono” plant decisions that will benefit the health and well being of Kauai. This program seeks to address invasive species directly linked to the nursery and landscaping trade by encouraging businesses to adopt BMPs and voluntarily remove target high-risk plants from nursery stock. Total number of Endorsed Businesses (Nursery and Landscaping): 17; Promotional Advertisements: 1,601 radio commercials spots Guardian of the Garden Isle: KISC’s membership network engages residence and visitors on an individual level with email updates, newsletters, volunteer days, workshops, and presentations. (Digital members: 347) • Volunteer Work Days (27 people): KISC partnered with various conservation organizations to offer the public ways to get involved with invasive species removal: Kokee Resource Conservation Program on Pihea Trail in Kokee State Park and Malama Huleia. • Conducted Early Detection Workshops and Presentations (280 people reached): Kauai Forest Bird Recovery Project, Kauai Endangered Seabird Recovery Project, Kauai Nursery and Landscaping, Neighborhood Associations, Rotary Clubs, and teacher associations.
