In 2021, the Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant Legal Program received funding from the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality to conduct a survey to gain an understanding of the perceptions and knowledge of waterway users of Mississippi regarding how Aquatic Invasive Species impacts natural resources and recreational use of those waterways. A secondary objective of the project was to increase the knowledge of managers (MDEQ, MDWFP) about those perceptions in order to develop more effective and fiscally-sound management and enforcement of AIS policies. The survey was conducted in 2022 and the findings are summarized in the final report.
