VOLUNTARY CODES OF CONDUCT PROGRAM (VCCP) a. b. c. d. e. f. g. h. i. j. k. l. m. n. o. p.

In October, 2006 the Voluntary Codes of Conduct program was presented to the Big Island Association of Nurserymen membership. Upon a board vote, BIAN will endorse the Voluntary Code of Conduct program to the membership and accepts the 16 plants listed herein as part of the program. Each grower will decide if they wish to join the program; however, the BIAN Board of Directors resolves to encourage members to participate in the program. There are 6 points of conduct to be adopted, and after review and discussion, the board decided to adopt the following codes: 1.

Ensure that invasive potential is assessed prior to introducing and marketing plant species new to Hawaii. Invasive potential should be assessed by the introducer or qualified experts using emerging risk assessment methods that consider plant characteristics and prior observations or experience with the plant elsewhere in the world. Additional insights may be gained through extensive monitoring on the nursery site prior to further distribution.

5.

The Big Island Association of Nurserymen will support this code by making a good faith effort to use the Hawaii Pacific Weed Risk Assessment (HPWRA) system when it is available. 2.

Work with regional experts and stakeholders to determine which species in your region are either current invasive or may become invasive. Identify plants that could be suitable alternatives in your region. The Big Island Association of Nurserymen will support this code by continuing to communicate with resource managers and plant specialists at the UH College of Tropical Agriculture & Human Resources (CTAHR).

3.

Develop and promote alternative plant material through plant selection and breeding. The Big Island Association of Nurserymen will support this code by working with and providing written support for researchers to develop sterile plant varieties (triploids) of popular invasive ornamentals.

4.

Phase out existing stocks of invasive species, which are collectively agreed upon by nursery associations, government agencies, and academic research, ecology and conservation organizations as threats to our natural areas. The Big Island Association of Nurserymen will immediately discontinue the ordering upon agreement, and phase out the selling of the following plants by December 31, 2008:

Arundo donax (Giant Reed) Angiopteris evecta (Mule’s foot fern) Buddleja madagascariensis (Smoke bush) Caesalpinia decapetala (Cat’s claw) Cortaderia selloana and C. jubata (Pampas grass) Cryptostegia grandiflora, C. madagascariensis (Rubbervine) Cyathea cooperi, syn: Sphaeropteris cooperi (Australian tree fern) Eichhornia crassipes (Water hyacinth) Hedychium gardenerianum (Kahili ginger) Macaranga mappa (Bingabing/Macaranga) Macaranga tanarius (Parasol tree/Macaranga) Melastoma candidum (Indian rhododendron) Melastoma sanguineum (Indian rhododendron) Pennisetum setaceum (Fountain grass) Rhodomyrtus tomentosa (Downy rose myrtle) Tibouchina urvilleana (Glorybush)

Follow all laws on importation and quarantine of plant materials across political boundaries. The Big Island Association of Nurserymen will support this code by making an effort to learn the laws and follow them.

6.

Encourage customers to use, and garden writers to promote, non-invasive plants. The Big Island Association of Nurserymen agrees to do this wherever possible.

Each grower that is participating in the program will be designated as participants in both the BIAN Membership Directory and the BIAN website online directory.
