If left uncontrolled non-native invasive Spartina <br />wi'll potentially spread up and down the coast to other California estuaries.' <br /> <br />Consistent with Goal 10, Objective A, the proposed project win continue to implement <br />the Invasive Spartina Project: Spartina Control Program to prevent up to 30,000 acres of <br />marsh and mudflats from being invaded and potentially covered by invasive Spartina and <br />hybrids and to preserve and restore natural habitats in the San Francisco baylands. <br /> <br />CONSISTENCY WITH CONSERVANCY'S <br />PROJECT SELECTION CRITERIA & GUIDELINES: <br /> <br />The proposed project is consistent with the Conservancy's Project Selection Criteria and <br />Guidelines adopted January 24,2001, in, the following respects: <br /> <br />0-8 <br /> <br />;:~ XHIB'i .{ <br />
