Financial assistance is available to help private landowners recover forest lands impacted by 2018 hurricanes through the Forest Health Protection program authority. Financial assistance may be provided for chemical treatment of non-native invasive plant species on private forest lands located within the state of Florida. Funding priorities include projects targeting Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council designated Category I or I invasive exotic plant species and those that provide for treatment of 100% of the infestation on the property. Project technical and mapping assistance will be provided by Florida Forest Service staff during the “Evaluation of Applications” period (see IV. Key Dates below). Treatments will be conducted by independent contractors solicited and selected by the Florida Forest Service.

The objectives of Forest Health Protection assistance include protecting non-Federal forest and tree resources from damaging forest insects, disease causing agents and invasive plants; developing/improving forest health protection technologies and monitoring the health of our nation's forests.
