Invasive pests: lists.
- Requires the Department of Food and Agriculture to post its invasive pest list on its public website.
- Mandates tracking of invasive pests that could enter California and require state management action.
- Requires consideration of federally and state-identified invasive pests when developing the list.
The California Assembly Committee on Agriculture, led by Chair Soria and Vice Chair Alanis, proposes requiring the Department of Food and Agriculture to post its list of potentially invasive pests on the department's website. The list, which the department already maintains, identifies species that could enter California and warrant state intervention through detection, exclusion, eradication, control, or management actions.
Under the proposed amendment to the Food and Agricultural Code, the department must consider invasive pests identified by federal and state authorities when compiling the public list. The measure requires no additional state funding, indicating the department would implement the online posting requirement using existing resources.
