The 2026/27 PAMF cycle has now begun! We are now in the translocating phase of the cycle which takes place from Aug to Oct and is defined by Phragmites’ inflorescences being in full bloom and the plant starting to yellow and brown. 

After completing your translocating phase management action(s), be sure to fill out a management report of this cycle by clicking on the “Report Management Action” link on your management unit’s homepage. Remember, management reports should still be submitted even if you took no action and rested your unit(s).
