SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background Through the Lacey Act (18 U.S.C. 42), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) regulates the importation and interstate transport of certain aquatic invasive species that have been determined to be injurious. The Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990 (16 U.S.C. 4701 et seq.) established the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force (ANSTF), an intergovernmental organization co-chaired by the Service and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and dedicated to preventing and controlling the spread of aquatic nuisance species. Development of the Guidelines In 2011 the ANSTF established a committee to develop guidelines that would help to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species through the disposal of unwanted live educational specimens (animals, plants, and microorganisms) into local waters and municipal water systems. The goal of the committee was to develop clear, easy-to-use standardized national guidelines that are easily communicated to educators and students and can be incorporated into education and outreach media.
