Welcome St. Lawrence, Eastern Lake Ontario Partnership for Regional Invasive Species Management SLELO-PRISM

Proposed Framework For SLELO-PRISM This presentation has been developed as a “proposed framework – guidance presentation” only - to help facilitate the establishment and working arrangements between the partners of the SLELO – PRISM. Final working documents are intended to be developed as a group effort with partner input and involvement.

Organize Our PRISM Determine goals, objectives, priorities (VISION) Develop 5- year Strategic Plan Identify Annual Work Initiatives Begin Implementing Initiatives Measure results SLELO PRISM Some Basics

Proposed Organizational Process (some of the following are based on actual contract deliverables*) (Some specifics are based on other PRISM’ examples) Conduct business based on Operational Guidelines* Work together under a “Statement of Cooperation-SOC ”, a MOU, or a Cooperative Agreement * Conduct business by an Executive/Steering Committee (principal partners) Advised by and advisory committee (at-large partners ) – subcommittees. Assisted by working groups (cooperating affiliates) Make decisions by consensus (reflected in Op.Guidelines) Hold regular meetings and additional meetings as needed *Develop (5-year) strategic plan* Prepare annual action plans* There are 8-original partners listed on the “original documents, but there are 10-signature pages. None of the documents state who is principal and who is cooperating, etc. There is a need to structure this better…

Basic Goals & Objectives ( just to get us thinking ! ) ( lets spell this out in a strategic plan ! ) 1. Prevent new invasions of invasive species. Increase public awareness and involvement to prevent the spread of invasive species. ED/RR *Other objectives as identified 2. Identify AOC’s and eradicate/suppress new invasions. Coordinate regional invasive plant inventory and monitoring program utilizing staff and volunteers. *Other objectives as identified 3. Manage established infestations. Facilitate the management, containment, and control of priority invasive plant infestations. *Other objectives as identified 4. Develop long-term BMP’s to address I.Spp. Identify and develop best management practices that will assist in managing the threat of invasive species for an indefinite period beyond the 5-year strategy period. Focus on areas and species where an expenditure of limited resources will have tangible, lasting, long-term conservation benefit.

Supporting “Process” Information: Conduct business based on Operational Guidelines; It is desirable to have a set of guidelines to follow when conducting business on behalf of the partnership. One possibility or “sample set” is shown in Attachment A. Work together under a Memorandum of Understanding (Cooperative Agreement) OR a general “Statement of Cooperation”: A cooperative agreement or SOC outlines the means by which partners of the SLELO- PRISM interact and conduct business of the PRISM. Other PRISMS have or are in the process of developing cooperative agreements between partners. Some are lengthy and detailed and others or short and condensed. Some Organizations cannot sign these! When developing such an agreement it is important to create an agreement that is functional and accepted by all partners. One possible scenario is provided as Attachment B. Note: An old agreement exists for SLELO, but is quite outdated, should it be revised ? Should we go with a SOC ?

Conduct business by a executive/steering committee (principal partners): For the purpose of efficient and effective process, other PRISMs have developed a core committee consisting of principle partners. Should the SLELO PRISM choose this path, the executive/steering committee might consist of those entities shown in Attachment C. Advised by an advisory committee (at-large partners): Recognizing that the SLELO region encompasses five (5) counties, the executive committee could seek advice and input from an “at-large” component consisting of a representative from each county (perhaps serving based on theme, e/g/ aquatics, terrestrial, insect). Possible candidates are shown in Attachment C. Combined, all levels make up the SLELO Partnership. Assisted by working groups (cooperating affiliates): To increase the capacity of the SLELO-PRISM, interested organizations and individuals are encouraged to participate on various undertakings within a workgroup or “subcommittee” context. Identified cooperating affiliates are presented in Attachment C.

Make decisions by consensus: The steering/executive committee, the advisory committee and cooperating affiliates would all function based on consensus. Hold regular meetings And additional meetings as needed: Develop (5-year) strategic plan: This component is perhaps one of the most important endeavors to be considered by the SLELO-PRISM. Determining goals and objectives and developing a comprehensive strategy to meet the needs of the PRISM can play an integral role in how the PRISM manages invasive species. It is important to ensure that the strategic plan is comprehensive and that all partners provide input to the strategy. *Engaging a professional “facilitator” to guide the partners through the process will ensure a comprehensive outcome. *Follow DEC Template: *Think long term benefits v.s. short term projects..

Prepare annual work plans: Once the SLELO partners have adopted a “Strategic Plan” it will become important to develop annual work/action plans. The partners will work together to identify AOC’s and to prioritize and select tasks to be completed on an annual basis. Any monetary requirements to assist with the implementation of annual work plans and projects identified by the partners, should be considered on a case-by-case scenario with an application / approval process by the executive committee. This will help us to maximize our efforts, identify volunteer v.s. paid seasonal employee elements and leverage additional project funding & resources. The host organization may require a separate agreement with the contracting entity. Year 1Tasks – deliverables Year 2Tasks – deliverables Year 3Tasks - deliverables Year 4Tasks - deliverables Year 5Tasks - deliverables Completing identified tasks will help us to measure/quantify our success.

General Consensus on Framework Comments & Suggestions Does this sound like a good approach ? Revisions and/or move forward. Adoption Need to Develop Operational Guidelines Should we use the sample provided as a template or re-invent the wheel ? Review Revise Adopt Strategic Plan Development Hire Professional Facilitator (perhaps with Invasive Species Background) Start work on a Strategic Plan (with partner input and involvement) Begin developing plan this fall. Eventually Develop Annual Work Plans ( year 1 – 5 ) Will blossom from the Strategy Should include: Projects, activities, tasks, efforts & logistics. Would be nice to have this by early spring……….. Update/Revise Partner Agreement or use a Statement of Cooperation Review period Revisions Adoption NEXTSTEPSNEXTSTEPS
