The General Assembly finds that the growth of the tall, reed-like grass Phragmites communis, commonly known as phragmites, may be a public and common nuisance on land and wetlands used for wildlife habitat areas. Therefore, it is the intent of the General Assembly that this subtitle require that statewide studies of phragmites be conducted in order to determine its spread and determine any progress made in current management and control programs.
