FIELD WORK: 2000 'During 2000, the Acadia National Park Revegetation Program staff worked on 43 park sites totaling an area of just over two acres. This included sixteen new sites that were revegetated with genetically native plants and seed, and additional plantings made at nine sites where revegetation projects were undertaken in previous years. Maintenenance work such as weeding, pruning, and erecting barriers was conducted at 18 sites that were revegetated in previous years. Revegetaion Program goals included restoring native vegetation following construction and trail maintenance, mitigating safety concerns and visitor use degradation, and establishing screening.' The report also gives information on volunteer program contributions, plant propagation methodologies, revegitation site work, numbers and species of plants distributed, and nursery inventory. 'To date, a total of 84 sites have been revegetated in Acadia since the inception of the revegitation program in 1994.' /STUDY LOCATIONS:/ /ACADIA NATIONAL PARK/
