The framework for implementing the PMP
Desired outcomes and objectives (Section
7.3) to guide the implementation of the pest
management action plan are shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2: Implementation Plan Framework




The Strategic Action Plan reflects the cooperative
management of weeds and pest animals
and includes actions to be undertaken by all
stakeholders.

The Strategic Action Plan highlights priorities
within a four year implementation timeframe.
Each action identifies stakeholder/s responsible
for delivering actions, set timeframes and
indicators of success against which the Plan
will be evaluated. The majority of the actions
identified in the plan are underway as part of
existing duties and/or project.

Funding/resources

The majority of actions highlighted within the Plan
may be carried out as part of existing programs
and projects and through the very active
community volunteer work. However it should be
noted that to enhance current programs/activities
further funding may be required. Funding for
pest management actions can be sought through
programs such as the National Landcare Program
– an Australian Government initiative that funds
environmental management activities. Noosa
Council has Community Grants and Partnerships
Programs for non for profit organisations. In
addition funding is allocated by Noosa Council for
specific pest management projects.
