Alan's Bio (pdf)
The Emerald Ash Borer is rapidly becoming a significant threat to our urban tree canopies. To ensure that your community is prepared for its environmental, social, and economic impact, I strongly recommend that you develop and implement an EAB Management Plan. Please visit our EAB Management site for more information, and contact me for help. Information about Region 3 Urban Forestry Program
