Huron County aftempting to slow the spread of imerald Ash Borer
Lakeshore Advance
Huron County Council sent a letter to the Cana-
dian Food inspection Agency (CLIA) on May 6th
asking for the reversal of a recent decision that will
allow the unregulated entry of ash logs and fire-
wood into the county from EAB -infested areas to
the south.
Until recently the CPIA has regulated the move-
)ent of ash logs and firewood into the county and
Iktle way that logs had to be processed within the
county in an effort to slow the spread of the highly
destructive Emerald Ash Borer.
"Approximately one quarter of all the trees in the
county are ash species, so losing them would be a
severe economic blow to both landowners and to
the local forest products industry" according to
Huron Forest Conservation Officer David Pul-
len. "We are appealing to members of the public
to not move ash firewood. Sawmills, firewood
dealers and log brokers have an economic interest
in slowing the spread of the insect, and hopefully
they will all work together on this issue. it is
encouraging to hear that some of them have
already set up their own policies to ensure that
they are not contributing to the spread of EAB from
previously infested areas."
In addition to 1 luron County, the Maitland Val-
ley Conservation Authority, Conservation Ontario,
and the l hlr011-Perth WoodIot Owners Association
have expressed concern and asked the federal gov-
ernment to reconsider CFIA's changes to Emerald
Ash Borer regulations.
Experts agree that the natural spread of Emerald
Ash Borer is very slow in comparison to human
assisted movement. Recent evidence suggests that
nature may be starting to bring the insect into bal-
ance and that slowing the artificial spread may
help to moderate the severe loss of ash trees that
occurred when EAB first arrived in Michigan and
Southern Ontario.
We are appealing to
members of the public to not
move ash firewood. Sawmills,
firewood dealers and log
brokers have an economic
interest in slowing the spread of
the insect, and hopefully they will
all work together on this issue."
