Coastal Invasive Plant Management Strategy ___________________________________________________________________________ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Invasive plants have been a problem in Coastal British Columbia (BC) since earliest European settlement but little has been done to control these species until recently. The Coastal Invasive Plant Committee (CIPC) was formed in 2005 to service Vancouver Island and surrounding coastal communities. The committee consists of public and private sector groups, First Nations, industry, utilities, and conservation groups that share a common interest in promoting coordination and cooperation to manage invasive plants in the region. The CIPC area covers approximately 60,000 km 2 including Vancouver Island, mainland coast and Gulf Islands; and consists of eight regional districts, 34 municipalities, 15 Gulf Islands, and 57 First Nations.
