  • Invasive Plants of Southern Illinois
    River to River Cooperative Weed Management Area Invasive Plants of Southern Illinois by Tiffany Osborne and Brad Steffen River to River Cooperative Weed Management Area State Land Federal Land River to River Cooperative Weed Management Area Invasive Plants of Southern Illinois by Tiffany Osborne and Brad Steffen www.rtrcwma.org Design and Layout by Carie Nixon Illinois Natural History Survey Institute of Natural Resource Sustainability Univeristy of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Cover Photo by Michael R. Jeffords, Illinois Natural History Survey Figure 1. Counties in Illinois. Degrees of latitude and longitude are indicated. ii iii Introduction Invasive plant species pose a tremendous threat to natural resources throughout the United States. Invasive species can choke out acres of native vegetation and greatly reduce wildlife habitat. Invasive plant species threaten every aspect of ecosystem health and productivity on public and private lands, threaten biological diversity by causing population declines of native species, and alter key ecosystem processes like hydrology, nitrogen fixation, and fire regimes. In Southern Illinois, the River to River Cooperative Weed Management Area (CWMA), a partnership of state and federal agencies, organizations, and universi- ties, was formed to address terrestrial and aquatic invasive species. Projects cur- rently being undertaken by the CWMA include an educational campaign aimed at reaching anyone that has the potential to cause or prevent the spread of invasive plants in southern Illinois, providing financial and technical assistance for control- ling invasive plants on private and public lands, early detection and rapid response of new invasive threats, and invasive plant distribution mapping. Preventing, managing, and controlling these invasive species is necessary to keep them in check.

    Justin J. Shew (President-Elect) Current Position: Conservation Program Manager at The National Great Rivers Research and Education Center (NGRREC), Lewis & Clark Community College (Godfrey, IL); Adjunct Professor of Ecology and Undergraduate Research Mentor, Webster University (Webster Groves, MO). Education: B.S. in Biology, Truman State University (Kirksville, MO); M.S. in Biology, Missouri State University (Springfield, MO); Ph.D. in Zoology (Wildlife Ecology), Southern Illinois University Carbondale Personal Background: Justin grew up in the suburbs of St. Louis, MO and always had an interest in the outdoors and wildlife. Despite having traveled the country and parts of the world (i.e. Anguilla, Newfoundland, and South Africa) to do wildlife research/education/technician work, Justin is back in St. Louis, MO to be close to his immediate family and ensure his five-year-old daughter develops a relationship with them. In Justin’s spare time he loves to plan camping trips with family and friends and plays music on his multiple ukuleles and guitar. Work History: Dr. Shew became conservation program manager at NGRREC (East Alton, IL) in April 2016 before finishing his doctoral at Southern Illinois University Carbondale in December 2016. His doctorate work on grassland bird response to management on private lands in Illinois and his experience managing a four-person field crew for four field seasons helped him move into his current position. Justin has a more non-traditional background from most PhDs as he spent six years working after completing his Masters on the spatial ecology of fox snakes before deciding to go back to graduate school for his doctoral.

Ythat the cost of everything is Remember – the last general rate increase at CCEC up dramatically, such as gas, diesel, was in 1987, over 21 years ago. coal, food, etc. Our costs at CCEC are also up. Most dramatically for us is the wholesale cost of power that we buy to distribute to you. The cost of power that we deliver to you is over 72 percent of our total cost. As you are aware, all of our power is purchased either from or through Southern Illinois Power Cooperative (SIPC) on Lake of Egypt just south of Marion. The cost of coal has nearly doubled since the first of this year – we all see the costs of gas and diesel. Natural gas used to fire the combustion turbines has stayed at extremely high levels. When SIPC has to go to the power market to purchase additional or replacement power those costs have also increase substantially. With that said, we are accessing our costs and our rates to determine where the rates need to be going into the future. If costs remain where they are, or close to it, there will be no choice but to increase our revenue.
