Explanation
(This amendment provides $150,000 each year from the general fund to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services' "Plant Pest and Disease Control" program to support the eradication of hydrilla on Lake Gaston, Smith Mountain Lake, Lake Anna and the Potomac River. Hydrilla is an invasive plant species that interferes with recreation, destroys fish and wildlife habitats, and can severely impact water delivery systems.)
