Summary

The Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians Natural Resources Department organized a volunteer effort to pull spotted knapweed on High Island in August 2018. The plan focused on smaller patches west and south of the spit in an attempt to limit spread around the coast.

Evidence limits

This is a first-party conservation notice preserved in the forum, but it documents intended work rather than a completed treatment or measured outcome.

The notice states the plan and intended containment strategy; the archived thread does not document attendance, acres treated, or work completion.
