Description

As the agency reported it.

Purpose
The purpose of this agreement is to support targeted pathway surveys for exotic wood borers and bark beetles (EWB/BB). These surveys would help identify sites that are vulnerable to the introduction of pests and risk material. This project also includes an outreach aspect to raise awareness of these forest pests to the public. Ultimately, this program aims to encourage early detection of exotic forest pests through survey and outreach efforts.
Activities
The new jersey department of agriculture (NJDA) will deploy traps in or near 15 high-risk locations such as warehouses, importers, ports, and transportation corridors. Traps will include multi-funnel wet traps, black light traps, and cross-vane panel traps with lures. There will also be 2 visual surveys. Samples that are collected will be forwarded to an entomologist from the united states department of agriculture for identification. Target pests include anoplophora chinensis, anoplophora glabripennis, cerambycidae SP., hylobius abietis, monochamus urussovii, platypus quercivorus, tetropium castaneum, and tetropium fuscum. Deliverables and expected outcomes: NJDA will select 15 sites to conduct surveys and visit those locations for permission to set up traps. From june through august 2026, the trapping, visual surve YS, and specimen collection will take place. Once completed, NJDA will note either the presence or absence of exotic forest pests. Intended beneficiary(IES): exotic wood borers/bark beetles cause damage to an array of tree species including oaks, maples, pines, firs, and spruces. Businesses that deal with these tree species, including nurseries, logging companies, and lumber yards/mills, are all impacted.subrecipient activities, if known or specified at the time of award: N/a
