The Wekiva Basin GEOpark lies along the Wekiva River and harbors <strong>Florida</strong> black bear, <strong>Florida</strong><br />
sandhill crane, wood storks, and other rare species. One project targeted scattered pockets of exotic<br />
plants on 17.5 acres. BIPM provided only the herbicides for this project, through its Herbicide Bank.<br />
A second project targeted the 40-acre McCall Parcel for retreatment of a heavily infested area treated<br />
in the previous fiscal year. Exotics, primarily air-potato, heavily dominated over 15 acres of the<br />
parcel.<br />
