The primary instructor for this workshop is Janine Marr, a PhD researcher from Antioch University New England. Instructors will provide a broad overview of invasive plan species identification and management specific to solid waste operators. Attendees will understand why some plants are considered invasive under New Hampshire law and be able to describe how their presence may impact native plant communities; be able to identify at least five of the most common invasive species likely to be disposed of at a transfer station or landfill OR become established on a landfill; and describe methods for managing these invasive species. Instructors will identify management methods that adhere to the Solid Waste Rules.
Attendees will receive 2.5 hours of CPD toward SW Operator Certification.
