§ 1904 Designating Rare Native Plants

This law lets a commission name rare native plants as endangered and then tell the landowners where those plants are growing, giving them advice on how to protect them.

Key Takeaways

  • •The commission can label endangered and rare native plants after a public hearing.
  • •If the location of those plants is known, the department must inform the landowner.
  • •The notice includes information on how to protect the plants.

Example

A farmer finds a rare wildflower growing in a corner of his field.

The commission can officially label that flower as endangered, and because the farmer's land is known to have it, the department will send him a notice saying the plant is protected and tell him what he should do to keep it safe.
