[Lekooks] LCUUC parking lot closure DO NOT USE THE WOOD!

[Gerald Flakas]

I think "the horse is already out of the barn" around here as far as the ash borer is concerned. Every ash tree I have seen around here is either withering or dead, unless it was treated against the borers. I suppose the wood shouldn't be removed from the area, though, just to comply with the directives. I would defer to George's opinion on this.

Thanks FranGeorge probably knows more on this ( please chime in) but I did a quick check on Wisconsin regulations on wood with the ash borer and we cannot move such wood out of the quarantined area of the southern half of Wisconsin. The Wi website recommends leaving the wood near where it was cut for 2 years, after which all the ash borers will have left the wood.http://datcpservices.wisconsin.gov/eab/article.jsp?topicid=23Phil

Wood infected with the ash borer should never be transported to people's homes and used for fires. You will simply be spreading this disease. Please consider burning all the wood immediately in LCUUC's firepit. Fran

Subject: [Lekooks] LCUUC parking lot closure The large ash tree which is infected by the Emerald Ash Borer will be taken down Friday, sothe south parking lot will be closed Friday and Saturday. Do not use the south parking lot entrance; use the east entrance and  parking lot instead.

Should be all cleaned up by Saturday evening.

We will be cutting up the tree for firewood, so please take wood as you wish Sunday or later, and give a donation to LCUUC.
