EAB Stories Shared... Lessons Learned

The WDNR urban forestry staff spent two days visiting communities in southern Michigan and northern Ohio to learn firsthand how communities are responding to emerald ash borer infestation. Michigan DNR and Ohio DNR and Extension staff arranged for the group to meet with representatives of eight communities, each employing an assortment of management options to address staggering tree mortality and critical wood waste and utilization issues. Several themes emerged as communities shared the lessons they have learned.

The following 10-part series is being compiled by DNR urban forestry staff and provides supplemental information such as specific examples, ideas you can implement, documents, web sites and more.

"Utilization" is the sixth in this series. To be notified when the other parts of the series are available, subscribe to the Urban Forestry Insider.
