2.0 Statement of Work

SPECIFICATIONS/STATEMENT OF WORK

Geranyl Acetol Lure

For CAPS EWB/BB Targets: Tetropium fuscum and Tetropium castaneum

2.0. BACKGROUND:

Insect attractants are sensitive detectors of insect populations at the group, genus, or species level, depending on the type of attractant. Attractants allow for detection and monitoring of non-indigenous insect pests and aid in a variety of control strategies. Forest pests are some of the most serious exotic plant pests threatening United States agriculture. If not detected, monitored, and managed in the early stages of a new infestation, these pests can cause tremendous damage. The cost of eradication could be in the millions of dollars.

2.1. OBJECTIVE

The requested supplies are needed to equip program personnel to detect and monitor exotic pest infestations. The lures are a primary tool used to detect the initial infestation, delimit the extent of the infestation, and manage introduced pest populations. Without these lure dispensers, detecting and defining the infestation might not be possible. Early detection can reduce the costs of an eradication program and make it more likely to succeed, potentially saving the USDA, the States, and cooperators millions of dollars.

2.3. CONTRACTOR’S DUTIES

Silk et al., 2007).

3.2. Length of effectiveness:

One lure should be effective for a minimum of 90 days under field conditions, assuming temperatures of 30°C during the day and 20°C at night for a daily average of 25°C.

3.3. Dispenser description:

The lure should be formulated into a dispenser that can be suspended in a fluon-coated cross-vane panel trap (Figure 1). Dispensers should contain a minimum of 50 mg of lure at time of purchase.

3.4. Active ingredients

Geranyl acetol: (E)-6,10-dimethyl-5,9-undecadien-2-ol

3.5. Target species:

Geranyl acetol, when used in combination with the ultra-high release “spruce blend” lure and ultra-high release ethanol, is an attractant for the brown spruce longhorned beetle, (Tetropium fuscum) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) (Silk et al., 2007) and the black spruce beetle (Tetropium castaneum) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) (Silk and Sweeney, 2007), when tested under standard laboratory and field conditions. It is also known to be a general attractant for multiple other cerambycid species.

3.6. Other names of attractant:

Geranyl acetol is also known as (E)-6,10-dimethyl-5.9-undecadien-2-ol.

4.0. PACKAGING

The lures must be individually packed in an impermeable over pack to prevent any leaking. For details see section 7.0.

6.1. Primary Testing

Once potential vendors have been identified and before contracts have been awarded, USDA-APHIS reserves the right to perform testing on the neat materials and final dispenser/ product.

All samples for testing shall be delivered to:

USDA-APHIS-PPQ FPML

a. Neat material

Prior to incorporation into dispensers, USDA-APHIS reserves the right to conduct a chemical analysis of a lot of liquid geranyl acetol, representative of what will be provided to fulfill the contract agreement. A lot is defined as a volume [for liquids] or a quantity [for lures] of geranyl acetol made from a specific mass of material with uniform composition, fabricated in a single production run under controlled, consistent conditions, and having a unique identification code.

Testing may include, but is not limited to: 1) identity by Infrared Spectroscopy (IR), 2) identity by refractive index, 3) determination of purity by gas chromatography, and 4) determination of isomer confirmation by gas chromatography. Samples are to be analyzed in triplicate and results averaged.

Compliance is not determined by the FPML; data is generated for review by the contracting specialist.

b. Lures/Dispensers

This method is applicable to the analysis of Polymeric Dispensers to evaluate conformance with established contractual guidelines. A report is generated comparing findings. Compliance is not determined by CPHST-GL; data is generated for review by the contracting specialist. Data is reported as: average emission rate in mg/hour and average milligram content of geranyl acetol (as total of grouped isomers).

6.2. Quality Assurance (QA)

USDA-APHIS reserves the right to conduct QA testing of each batch of solid dispensers procured through this contract. For purposes of sampling, each group of dispensers filled with liquid geranyl acetol from the same lot, and on the same calendar day during a single, continuous (i.e., uninterrupted) production run is defined as a batch and the coded designation of a batch as the batch number.
