The 2023 Oregon Plan builds upon the successes of the original plan and is re-organized around six objectives, rewritten to reflect those in the Statewide Strategic Plan for Invasive Species, and the national Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force Strategic Plan. Each objective includes a list of supplemental strategies and the specific actions needed to accomplish them.

The purpose of this plan is to protect Oregon’s waters, aquatic resources, and facilities from the deleterious effects of dreissenid mussel establishment. This plan serves as a guidance document for natural resource managers to plan for and provide a rapid response effort to a dreissenid mussel infestation in Oregon waters.
