This is a map document created by the Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) depicting proposed Japanese Beetle treatment areas for 2026 in Yakima and Benton Counties, Washington. The map identifies designated treatment zones within the Japanese Beetle quarantine area and was prepared on January 6, 2026, by map author S. Belisle. The document serves as a planning tool for the WSDA's Japanese Beetle management initiatives across the specified counties in Washington State.

The map is directly related to a WSDA contract opportunity for constructing, staffing, and operating a yard debris collection site within the Japanese Beetle quarantine area. This site is necessary to comply with WAC 16-470-717, which prohibits the movement of regulated articles outside the quarantine zone during active flight season. The contractor will be responsible for establishing and maintaining a collection facility that allows residents to dispose of yard debris without violating quarantine restrictions, thereby reducing the risk of Japanese Beetle spread while supporting local compliance efforts.
