^1^ A tool is defined as any method, technique, technology application
service, model system, science synthesis, database, evaluation or
monitoring protocol, prototype, operational application, and decision
support system that is developed, maintained or revised following Forest
Service quality assurance guidelines.

^2^ The purpose of the Predict and Prevent Invasive Species
Introductions activity is to provide scientific information, methods,
and technology application services to federal and state agencies so
they can eliminate the potential for the introduction of invasive
species. Examples of predict and prevent tools include: data, method and
tool evaluations, pathway assessments, methods and tools, science
syntheses (integration of existing scientific knowledge), new science
findings, consultations, training sessions, quarantine treatments, risk
analysis tools and methods, species identifications, and species
characterizations.

^3^ The purpose of the Detect, Respond and Eradicate Invasive Species
Introductions activity is to provide scientific information, methods,
and technology application services to federal and state agencies and
private landowners so they can eliminate invasive species populations
and prevent economic loss and ecological damage to the nation's forests
and rangelands. Examples of detect, respond and eradicate tools include:
data, tools and methods, tools and methods evaluations, new science
findings, science syntheses (integration of existing scientific
knowledge), consultations, eradication data, training sessions.

^4^ The purpose of the Manage and Mitigate Established Invasive Species
Infestations activity is to provide scientific information, methods, and
technology application services to federal and state agencies and
private landowners so they can reduce the extent and/or spread of
established invasive species to minimize economic loss and ecological
damage to the nation's forests and rangelands. Examples of control,
manage and mitigate tools include: Data, guidelines, new science
findins, science syntheses (integration of existing scientific
knowledge), consultations, training sessions, methods and tools,
efficacy evaluations, tools and methods long-term efficacy assessments,
tools and methods non-target effects assessments.

### ^5^ The purpose of the Restore and Maintain Ecosystems Degraded by Invasive Species Activity is to provide scientific information, methods, and technology application services to federal and state agencies and private landowners so they can rehabilitate forest and rangeland ecosystems to regain long-term multiple uses and values. Examples of restore, maintain and rehabilitate tools include: Data, new science findings, science syntheses (integration of existing scientific knowledge), maintenance consultations, training sessions, methods and tools, treatment guidelines, method and tools evaluations, ecosystem restoration assessment tools and methods.
