Lake Umatilla is one of the first Oregon waterbodies to be impacted by this invasive plant that colonizes shorelines and slow-moving rivers. A flowering rush working group has been established to share resources and information on the spread and control of this species and personnel from John Day\/Willow Creek Project serve on the team. Flowering rush is difficult to remove and control once it has established, and competes with native shoreline and wetland vegetation, often crowding out native species. Flowering rush is established in the Upper Columbia River watershed and is spreading downstream; it is now found in several locations within the Mid-Columbia River region and is expected to move throughout Lake Umatilla and farther downstream into Lake Celilo unless aggressive EDRR action is taken. Despite the presence of flowering rush in the upper Columbia River Basin for decades, many questions remain about its biology and ecology, especially in the lower watersheds where its presence is still limited.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Agency Contact<br \/>Stacy Thurman, Grants Specialist<br \/>US Army Corps of Engineers, Engineer Research and Development Center<br \/>3909 Halls Ferry Road<br \/>Vicksburg, MS 39180-6199<br \/><a href=\"mailto:Stacy.D.Thurman@usace.army.mil\">Stacy.D.Thurman@usace.army.mil<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Request for Statements of Interest Funding Opportunity AnnouncementFederal Awarding Agency: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,Engineer Research and Development Center3909 Halls Ferry RoadVicksburg, MS 39180-6199 Funding Opportunity No: W81EWF-22-SOI-0017CFDA No: 12.630Statutory Authority: 10 USC 4001Project Title: \u201cAquatic Invasive Species Survey and Treatment on Lake Umatilla and Lake Celilo\u201d Full Announcement: https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1F2JKt_Sf-u324QfE0zLZoT0hsYZg4sSO\/view?usp=sharingAnnouncement Type: Initial announcementIssue Date: May&#8230;<\/p>\n<div><a class=\"more\" href=\"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/u-s-army-corps-of-engineers-funding-opportunity-aquatic-invasive-species\/\">Read more<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3467],"tags":[47,21],"class_list":["post-16973","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-past-funding","tag-funding","tag-usace"],"acf":[],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-06-17 19:10:55","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16973","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16973"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16973\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16974,"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16973\/revisions\/16974"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16973"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16973"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/depts.washington.edu\/pnwcesu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16973"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
