Description:An integrated program of prevention through vector management aims at closing the doors as tightly as possible to harmful non‐native species and offers the best prospects against preventing potential new invasions. Executive Order 13112 called for the development of management plans for “identify[ing] pathways by which invasive species are introduced and for minimizing the risk of introductions via those pathways.” Towards these ends, the Mid‐Atlantic Panel on Aquatic Invasive Species organized a workshop in December 2009 that brought together distinguished scientists and policy leaders from across the country to discuss the research, management, education and public engagement challenges -- and opportunities — for developing an action‐based vector management framework to prevent new exotic species introductions.
