Water chestnut is an invasive plant spe- cies that can crowd out local plants and take over a habitat. Such a situation can have serious effects on native fish populations. Other species, including waterfowl, pollinating insects, and animals like beaver and others depen- dent on a riverine environment can be af- fected.. The OECF is open for another round of grant applications. Deadline for applica- tions is Nov. 8 and grants can go to non- profit groups, conservation authorities, school districts, municipalities, and First Na- tion groups in areas affected by a toxic spill.

More details on grant applications are available at www.ene.gov.on.ca/environ- ment/en/funding/community_environ- ment_fund/STDPROD_076082.html.
