SMA Announces Emerald Ash Borer Position Paper, Toolkit, & Web Links As Emerald Ash Borer continues to ravage the ash populations of many North American com- munities, the SMA Board, under the leadership of President John McNeil and with the help of the SMA Past Presidents' Council, has undertaken to provide our members with the greatest possible range of information to assist in planning for the tiny green pest. The Board has approved a Position Paper on the topic of EAB, with background info, recommendations, and listings of options. It is a must-read for any municipal arborist in the current or future range of EAB. We have also prepared an EAB Toolbox flyer. This two-page handout is designed to give you and your constituents a brief overview of the various management options available. It's in PDF format, so you can easily download, print, and share it with anyone you think might need to read it. Finally, we have established a page of EAB Web Links, designed to assist you in your planning and response by providing other valuable tools and the most up-to-date information possible. Check www.urban-forestry.com it out! Links to all three resources are found on the SMA website: www.urban-forestry.com. 15
