An Act To Enhance Protections For And Better Address Invasive Aquatic Plant Infestations In Inland Waters Of The State

This bill amendment modifies a larger legislative act by removing a specific $2 million funding allocation for invasive aquatic plant control in Maine's inland waters. The change eliminates the one-time appropriation from the state's General Fund that was originally set for the 2024-25 fiscal year. By striking out this section, the amendment reduces the immediate financial commitment for invasive species management while leaving other parts of the broader protection plan intact.
