Background

About Erika Haug

I have fifteen plus years of experience in water resource management. My work has primarily focused on assessment and the development of long-term management strategies for the selective control of non-native invasive aquatic plant species. I have worked in the public, private, non-profit and academic sectors of water resource management. My research primarily focused on the efficient use of chemical control techniques so as to maximize control of invasive plant species while minimizing non-target environmental impacts. In my current role at NC DEQ in the Intensive Surveys Branch, my work focuses on water quality data collection and assessments, GIS, data management and website management. Specialties: Invasive species, invasive aquatic plants, environmental surveying, watershed management, long-term management plan development, GIS, field research, environmental education, regulations, permitting, integrated pest management, limnology, water quality analysis, environmental consulting, data collection and analysis
