Emerald Ash Borer Outreach and Education Proposal
The Minnesota Shade Tree Advisory Committee (MNSTAC) is offering a series of meetings with community leaders and elected officials in an effort to increase awareness of the damage that will be caused by the emerald ash borer (EAB) and the opportunity the State of Minnesota has to reduce public EAB costs while increasing public benefit.

EAB Grant Funding for CommunitiesThe MNSTAC Legislative team has been working hard, again this session, to advocate for our state’s community forests. As more and more areas of the state become infested with EAB, it is more critical now than ever to assist communities in managing this pest. At this time, there are two significant proposals in the legislature:
HF2031/SF1687 HF2032/SF1688 These bills would provide funding for communities in the form of matching grant programs for EAB management. We need support at all levels for these bills. Take a moment to contact your legislator and let them know that another session cannot go by without a significant investment in our community forests. There’s too much at stake. Unsure of who your legislators are? Find them here. |
