When determining whether an entity may apply for the Incident Response Grants, what constitutes a documented infestation of emerald ash borer?
A9. For purposes of the Incident Response Grants, a documented infestation of emerald ash borer is defined as the presence or former presence of ash trees confirmed by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture to be infested with the emerald ash borer. For purposes of these grant programs, the infestation must be documented by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture on or before November 20, 2009. Detections of emerald ash borer by other means, such as traps or public observation are not considered to be documented infestation. Emerald ash borer has the ability to spread to areas through its own flight capacity and through human-assisted movement. Just because an adult emerald ash borer is found in an area, that does not mean that infested trees occur in that area.
