Problem

The gypsy moth^ an introduced insect, has developed into a very destructive pest in New England and eastern Netr York State» It is a leaf feeder, on deciduous trees preferably, but will also attack; coniferous trees« In areas of heavy infestation, thousands of acres of woodlands are defoliated» Conifers, completely defoliated once, are usually killed» Successive, complete defoliations may kill macy deciduous trees of economic importance, or devitalize them to the extent that secondary insects or unfavorable ecologidi cal conditions will kill them» In all cases where defoliation occurs, growth increment is greatly reduced»

The brown»tail moth, also an introduced defoliator, is likewise injurious to tree growth ««i particularly apple, pear, cherry and willow» In addition it is a nuisance and health hazard in resi-» dential and recreational areas because the hairs of the larvae cause serious poisoning and intense irritation when th^ come in contact with the human skin» The present range of infestation is within New England«

TtaiSy the two insects are enemies of forest, orchard, wildlife, water, and soil conservation} and of valuable trees in residential and recreational areas, causing both commercial and aesthetic losses in sections where they have become established^

Tite natural spread of the moths is limited and is best reduced by appropriate control and eradication measures» Cooperative Federal«» State suppression and eradication programs are now in progress under the leadership of the Gypsy Moth Control Project»

Artificial spread m^ occur through transportation of moth forms on various kinds of articles and materials shipped through commerce or moved privately from the infested area. Large volumes of articles and materials of great economic iuiportance are produced in the in» fes ted section and moved annually to destinations in non^infested sections» All such articles and materials, if exposed to infes« tation, are potential carriers of moth forms» Vehicles and trailers moving from infested tourist, trailer and shipping sites present another source of danger»

Less than 2% of the to 1^1 area of the united States is currently infested» Because of the actual and potential losses involved, it is important to protect the vast, non^infested sections of the country» It is likewise important to the welfare of the infested sections to permit safe movement of inf es tibie articles»

Purpose of Regulatory Program

The purpose of the regulatory program is to prevent the artificial

spread of the two insects to non-infested sections and to the suppres* sive section of the regulated area where suppression and eradication is in progress. The quarantine regulations which control the move«, ment of potential carriers of the insects are designed to give ade« quate protection at a reasonable cost and to facilitate üiovement of regulated ax'ticles without undue restrictions on coxrnnerce, industry and the public^ The enforcement of the quarantine is a continuing program*

Values Involved

Grov/ers, manufacturers and shippers in the regulated area require a wide market for the varied articles and materials they produce» Forest| nursery and quarry products are particularly in demand in areas remote from their source^ The estimated value of all products certified for safe movanent from the regulated area approximated $28|000|000 in 1952. Hençe^ the ordwly movement of products under regulation is vital to the general econosgr of the areas involved.

Evidence of the potential of the gypsy moth for spread and establishment is indicated by its haying been discovered in New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey before effective quarantine measures were applied» The cost of eradicating these several isolated infestations was estimated at over $10,000,000.

In 1933, Dr. John N, Summers, a research specialist and former quar* antine officer^ estimated that if the gypsy moth became generally established in the area east of the I4ississippi Valley, the annual loss by death of trees and decreased growth increment of timber would amount to $100,000,000. By today's y?ilue standards the estimated loss would by far exceed this figure.

Cooperation

All quarantined States cooperated in the regulatory program in varying degrees, fey contributing funds and services. This year a de* cided effort waa made to secure additional assistance from each State, and as a result, additional aid was obtained.

The Bureau«s Division of Forest Insect Investigations participated in cooperative tests to develop and improve economical treatments and methods of quarantine compliance.

Field personnel of the G^psy Moth Control and Blister Hust Control Projects, operating within the gypsy moth regulated area, assisted with inspection and quarantine enforconent work.

All efforts and expenditures by States, local governments, commer-. cial concerns and individuals for suppression or eradication of the gypsy moth and for quarantine compliance are of definite assistance in the attenipt to protect uninfested sections, and to facilitate movement of regiilated materials.

status of Progress

The Federal Gypsy Moth Quarantine was promulgated in 191t^ The enforcement of the quarantine is a continuing, cooperative program and with one exception! there has been no persistent, distant, artificial spread of xooth infestation during recent years* At the present time, the regulated area in New England and eastern New York comprises a total of 47,501 square miles, which constitutes less than 2% of the total area of the united States*

Under Federal direction and responsibility, standardized methods of inspection and certification are accepted by all oí the unin» fes ted States and \^ foreign gof^ernments* These methods are designed to give adémate protection without unreasonable costs or inconvenience to affected industry and commerce*

Accomplishoients During the Year

Accomplishments by this sub*project are best measured hy the pro«» tection given to the uninfested sections of the countiy ty facil- itating the safe and orderly movement of potentially infestible articles and materials from the area regulated on account of the two insects. Quantities of the principal categories of restricted products certified for movement as free of moth forms, valued at approximately $28,000,000 include 40,000,000 pieces of nursery stock; 170,000,000 board feet of logs and lumber; 4,500,000 posts, polesg etc} 75,000 cords of wood; 275,000 units of miscellaneous forest products; 400,000 Christmas trees; 75,000 bundles of evergreen boughs; and 60,000 tons and 195,000 pieces of stone and quarry products*

More than 300 producers and operators shipped under certification agreements after production sites, processing, handling and stor« age mettods were determined to preclude possibility of infestation on products shipped* Similarly, 700 growing sites, comprising more ttetn 50,000 acres were scouted to determine freedom from infestation and to establish certification eligibility of materials produced and shipped therefrom. Inspectors also checked nearly 400 tourist and trailer camps, junk yards, etc* for infestations and all infes^ tations found were eliminated*

Ninety^one shijanents of regulated articles were found to be in^ fes ted at time of inspection, from which a total of 333 gypsy moth egg masses and 33 larvae were rmoved prior to certification for movanent*

To meet inspection demands, over 17,000 service calls were made to approximately 2,000 commercial establistaents and 800 private shippers during the year*

Seasonal and spot vehicular patrols on highways for quarantine com^ pliance resulted in checking some 1,600 vehicles carrying or sus« pected of carrying restricted materials to points outside the

regulated area» Of this total, 51 were found to be traaisiK>rting unm certified, regulated articles in violation of the quarantine» A total of 142 alleged violations discovered and reported by transit inspectors was investigated, and the regulations explained to shippers and more clearly defined to transportation agencies« All violation cases were satisfactorily settled without resorting to court action, and full cooperation in quarantine compliance was pit>« mised in the future by all concerned»

Changes in Operations and Trends

In areas of light infestation the methods of certifying forest, ever* green and quarry products on the basis of lot inspection and the inspector's knowledge of infestation conditions gained through surveys were expanded» This eliminated much costly and time-consuming piece-by-piece inspection and fumigation heretofore necessary, and allowed inspectors "to concentrate on movanent of products from more hazardous locations»

In 1952 more nurseries applied authorized DDT treatments to plant plots and border areas to render or maintain stock eligible for certification than in any previous year» This method of certification is very effective and nurserymen find it more practical than other methods «ma j^st as economical.

Through continued, educational efforts, more producers, dealers and shippers coîtfcrméd with recommended storage methods to prevent infestation of protucts at storage and producing sites» Efforts were increased to secure the elimination of infestation by insecticide treatments in and around tourist and trailer camps and various commercial establishments to reduce Imzard of spread»

Changes in Financing

The activities of this ia:x)ject are financed by allotments from funds provided for the Gypsy Moth and Brown-tail Moth Control and the Jap- anese Beetle Control prograras» The total allotted funds for gypsy moth inspection and certification liave not changed to any great extent in recent years» Prior to the current fiscal year, allotments from Japanese beetle funds were based on estimates of the percentage of work perforraed on each activity the preceeding year» This year, funds for the Gypsy Vioth Inspection and Certification and the Jap- anese Beetle Control programs were combined as one financial project» Distribution between the two original funds will be raade at the end of the third quarter on the basis of actual field work performed daily on each activity by the inspection force» This will result in a more equitable distribution of funds between the tro sub-projects»

Changes in Organization

The sub-project leader, who for many years was in charge of this agency, retired on February 29 and was succeeded by the assistant sub-project leader» The assistant sub-project leader vacancy was filled by promotion and ti-ansfer of an area leader from the Japanese

Beetle Control Sub-project^

Two inspectors stationed in the regulated ar^i of New York, who for several years were under the direction of the Japanese Beetle Control Sub«project| were placed under the supervision of this sub^project on liarch 1^

The State of New York Departnent of Agriculture and Markets, Bureau of Plant Industry, assigned one of its hw? tori cultural inm specters to perform cooperative, regulatory services in one of the inspection districts in that State«

Changes in Distribution of Pest

Inspectors and others reported increasing and heavy populations of the gypsy moth at many points within the generally infested area« Ebctensive defoliation occurred in the Lake Sebago and Lake Kezar sections of Maine; the Lake Uinnipesaukee section of New Hampshire; in northern Berkshire County, Massachusetts; and along the Connecticut Kiver Valey, from Northampton, Massachusetts to Bellows Falls, Vermont,

Increasing moth populations and some lesser defoliated areas were observed in the northwest section of Connecticut^ the central and western sections of Vermont| the southwest section of New Hampshire, and along the Kennebec and Penobscot River Vallas in Maine^ Infestation in the northern and eastern periphery of the regulated area in New Shgland showed some increase but remained generally light« Similarly, throughout the regulated area where growth is less favorable to moth build«iup; or in areas where exm tensive DDT spraying has been conducted, the infestation is gén^ erally light«

Browxutail moth infestations continued at a low level, except in a few sections along the coast of Maine, in the central part of New Hampshire, and in northeastern Massachusetts,

SurvQTs conducted outside the regulated area dtiring the winter of 1951 and spring of 1952 disclosed sufficient gypsy moth infestation in 21 towns in southwestern Connecticut to place them under regu* lation«

Research Results and Their Effect on Program

The Division of Fbrest Insect Investigations continued cooperative work with nurserymen in Rhode Island to develop a satisfactory con^* trol for mites in nursery plots sprayed with DDT for gypsy moth certification purposes« Mite populations in such treated plots have a tendency to build up and cause injury<i Good control was obtained with some of the miticides tried «^ alone and in combinations» Further work in this field is necessary to encourage and increase the use of authorized DDT certification treatoients by nurserymen»

gecommenda tiens

It is recotm&ideá thatí

Existing vacwicies in district inspector positions which have occurred in recent years be filled to meet current quarantine dmands and provide continuing^ adequate protection and services; particularly in view of increasing gypsy moth populations♦ Additional personnel is needed to bolster all phases of regulatory worki including in* spection, enforcment and surv^r. More clerical help is needed at the headquarters office for maintenance of retíords and reporting purposes«

Research units continue cooperative experiments with nuf serymen to develop more effective controls against buildup of mite populations in tîursery plots, resulting from use of DDT quarantine treatments^

Research conduct tests with §ome of the more recently developed itu sec ti cides (such as mala thon) to determine their effectiveness in controlling the gypsy m^th^ and to develop optional treating methods for certification purposes^

Educational and demonstration work, designed to reach and better in* form affected industry and the public^ be eöcpanded» Short radio and TV programs, motion pictures, portable exhibits and illustrated posters would be valuable in disseminating pertinent and timely con* trol and regulatory information^

Government motor vehicles be replaced on a five*year rotation plan, whereby 20^2 of the fleet would be replaced annually♦ This would cut operating and repair costs.

Efforts te continued to secure additional assistance from State co* operators in support of the jarogram*

Free movment of pulpwood be allowed to designated and approved pilp mills on the basis of destination*site DDT treatments by the mills* It is believed this method would be more practical and less expensive than the current inspection*certif i cation procedures, and equally as effective*

Changes in Federal and State Laws and Quarantine Affecting Program

On August 9, 1952, the Gypsy Moth and Brown*tail Moth Quarantine No* 45 was amended to include 21 additional towns within the regulated area in Connecticut* This amendment «Iso rephrased regulations in a number of iriinor respects in the interest of clarity and improved efficiency of quarantine operation*

A revision of the Connecticut State Gyp^ Moth and Brown*tail Moth Quarantine was xaade effective December 2, 1952 to coincide with the Federal quarantine*

GYPSY AND BEOW-TAIL HOTH INSPECTION AND CERTIFICATION

INTRODUCTION

Brief History and Problgu

The gypsy moth (Por the tría dispar L, ), a pest of ïkropean origin, was introduced inio'' lÖbe \l'nitea Öiates at Medford, Massachusetts in 1869 by a French naturalist for experimental purposes* Some of the insects escaped, but the damage they caused was first at» tribu ted to tent caterpillars and other common insects j thus it wasnH until 20 years la ter, when the infestation in that locality had assumed pernicious proportions, the Town Fathers first apt propriated money to check the damage to fruit, shade and forest trees»

The caterpillars of the gypsy moth are voracious foliage feeders capable of causing injury to many shrubs and tree species» In areas of heavy infestation, thousands of acres of woodlands have been defoliated, and many fruit, ornamental and forest^type trees have been killed» Conifers, completely defoliated once, are usually killed» Successive, complete defoliations may kill deciduous trees, or so weaken them that they become susceptible to attacks by other insects or diseases and eventually die» Low vitality trees are also prone to unfavorable, ecological conditions» In all cases where defoliation occurs, growth increnient is greatly reduced, resulting in vast losses of raarketable soft and hardwood timber products» Destruction of forest canoßr disrupts the normal reproduction of desirable tree species in forests. Defol- iation also reduces the water holding capacity of the soil and contributes to soil erosion» Caterpillar infested sites are un« desirable for recreational purposes -« a significant factor in many New England areas» Likewise, defoliated trees along road- ways and in residential areas are very unsightly, and dead trees become a menace to personal safety and property»

In 1912, shortly after passage of the Federal Plant Quarantine Act, the gypsy moth infested area was placed under Fierai cpiar- an tine» At this time all of the New England States were quarantined, although few infestations had been found in Connecticut and Vermont» As a general policy State money was expended for control work and Federal mon^ for quarantine enforcement» Quar- antine and control efforts were reduced during World Tiar I» By 1922 scattered infestations were found further west in Verraont, Massachusetts and Connecticut; and small infestations had been discovered at Cleveland, Ohio; Greenport and Patchogue on Long Island} and at North Castle and Geneva, New York; and at Rutherford, New Jersey» A 400 square mile infested area had also been found in northern New Jers^»

In 1932 an extensive gypsy moth infestation was found in the vicinity of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania and in 1948 a second infestation was discovered at Quakertown, Pennsylvania» Eradication of outside infestations, except in Pennsylvania, was completed by 1935» Eradication of the Pennsylvania infestations is well

under way at this tijne*

In 1923 a 30 raile wide barrier zone was established which extended from the Canadian border to Long Island Sound, and was bounded on the west by the Hudson River* Maintenance of tliis barrier zone between 1925 and 1945 did much to retard, but did not stop the natural spread of the gypsy moth* The infestation spread slowly westward, and in July 1945, the quarantined area was extended to include the barrier zone and a small, additional area in eastern Nevr York*

The natural spread of the gypsy moth is best reduced by control or eradication* The female moths, usually heavy and poor fliers, do not contribute to spread. The principal means of natural spread is by newly hatched caterpillars which can be blown a considerable distance by high winds* This may result in the establishment of infestation àt sites far from the origin* This is especially true because the male moth is strongly attracted to the feíüale and flies well.

Artificial spread may occur through transportation of the moth forms, but the principal danger exists in the shipment of egg masses* A single egg mass may contain from 400 to 600 eggs and so one mass can readily start an infestation* The eggs are laid on trees, shrubs, stones, junli and products and üiaterials of various kinds which may be found in the vicinity of an infestation. Arti- cles and materials which constitute the greatest opportunity for artificial spread are forest, field and nursery plants and plant products, and stone and quarry products, \dien shipped in commerce* Vehicles and house trailers, moving from infested tourist and trailer parking sites present another hazard of spread*

Because of the actual and potential losses, it is iniportant, both to control or eradicate tliis insect, and to prevent its spread; but it is equally important to permit safe Eioveraent of materials and articles which may disseminate the insect* To realize these ob- jectives, Federal and State quarantines have been promulgated^ The enforcement of the quarantine is a continuing program* There has been no known, distant, artificial spread of gypsy uioth infestation in recent years* At the present time, the regulated area includes a 1x)tal of 47,501 square lailes, which is less than 2/2 of the total area of the United States*

The brown-tail »loth (Nygmia phaeorrhoea Donov*) was first found in the United States at ¿cwnerville, Hassacluisetts in 1897, having apparently entered the country on nurseiy stock from Europe several years previous* The early history and economic importance of the brown-tail moth parallels closely that of the gypsy moth* It is a defoliator, and injurious to tree growth, particularly apple, pear, cherry and willow. In addition, it is a nuisance and health hazard in residential and recreational areas because the hairs of the larvae cause serious poisoning and intense irritation when they come

in contact with the human skin^ By 1915, most of the area east of the Connecticut River, except northern New Hampshire and I'laine, was heavily infested^ Continuous control measures and weather conditions have held the insect in check* Spread of the brown» tail moth by the movement of infested plants has been prevented, apparently by quarantine action« The present range of infestation is within New England*

This sub* project is also responsible for ejifor cement of the Japanese Beetle Quarantine in New England, and in that section of eastern New York where the Gypsy tfoth and the Japanese Beetle Quarantines O'tfêrlap; also in the southw^est comer of Coxmecticut which is under regulation for Japanese beetle only* In the area where both quarantines are involved, combination inspectioni-certification service and related work is performed by the one inspection force* Activities in connection with the Japanese Beetle Quarantine do not appear in tliis report, but are included in the Japanese Beetle Control Annual Report*

Regulated Areas

The area regulated on account of the gypsy moth includes all of the States of Massachusetts and Rhode Island; parts of Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire and Vermontj and a small section in eastern New York State, A total of 47,501 square miles is involved, of which 38,504 square miles are classified as «»generally infested area" and 8,997 square miles as "suppressive area*" The latter consists of a zone along the westot^n border of the regulated area within which suppressive measures are in progress, with eradication of the gypsy moth as the objective. The area under regulation on account of the brown«tail moth is the same as that classified as "generally infested" for the gypsy moth.

Conditions of Infestation ■ . »i*i Ill n ii-iiiii ii^-iniiiiiiiiiiiHi[iilniitiiiiii mill

A general buildiup of gypsy moth populations, in varying degrees, occurred throughout the generally infested area, and at two or three localities in the suppressive area« Records of observations made during the summer show a total of 293,052 acres of TOOdlands defoliated from 25 to 100 percent^

Extensive defoliation occurred in the Lake Sebago fkod Lake Kezar sections of Maine; the Lake Winnipesaukee section of New Hampshire| the northern part of Berkshire County in I'lassachusettsj and at many locations along the Connecticut River Valley from Northampton, Massachusetts to Bellows Falls, Vermont* Increasing moth populations and lesser defoliated areas were observed in the northern section of Connecticutj the ceniral and western sections of Vermont; the southwest section of New Hampshire; and along the Kennebec and Penobscot River Valleys in liaine« Infestation along the northern and eastern periphery of the regulated area in New England remained generally light, although some increase and spread was noted^ Similarly, throughout the regulated area, where growth was less favorable for moth buiid«up, or in areas where DDT sprays had been applied, the infestation was generally light♦

Surveys conducted outside the regulated area during the winter of 1951 and spring of 1952 disclosed sufficient gypsy moth infestation in 21 towns in southwestern Connecticut to place them under regu.» lation« Infestations found outside the regulated area in New York were eliminated by Federal-State control agencies^

Brown-tail moth infestations continued at a low level, except that some build-up did occur at several locations along the coast of Maine, in the southeastern section of New Hampshire, and in northeastern Mas sachu setts *

ORGANIZATION, OPERATION AND PERSONNEL

The enforcement of the Gypsy Moth and Brown-tail Moth Quarantine is administered by the sub-project field office located at Greenfield, Massachusetts, which is under the gmertJt direction of William Middleton, In Charge, Japanese Beetle Control Project, Hoboken, New Jersey, The sub-project office provides overall program planning, supervision and direction; and coordinates all regulatory and related activities with States and other cooperating agencies involved^ State participation in the program is based on informal, written agreements prepared annually as a result of consultations with officials of agencies COnc^ned in each State»

The organizational unit of the sub-»project is the district inspector. There are no functional units as such^ Districts of a definite area are assigned each inspector* The regulated area is divided into 22 inspection districts and these are grouped into three

10

supervisory areas. Both the supervisory areas and the inspection districts have been established on the basis of workload and econoiny of operation rather than State or counly boundaries« Similarly^ the headquarters of area leaders and district in» specters are based on workload and not centered within the boundaries of their respective territories• At periods of peak movement of regulated products, cooperating State inspectors or Federal inspectors from other districts are assigned to assist a district inspector as needed.

There were very few changes in organization and personnel during the year. Two district inspectors operating in the regulated area of New York, who for several years were under the direction of the Japanese Beetle Sub-project, ware transferred back to this subi-ísroject effective tiarch 1« In this same area in New York, the State Department of Agriculture and î'Iarkets, Division of Plant Industry, assigned one of its horticultural inspectors to perform regulatory work under the direction of this sub^ project» After training, this inspector v/as assigned an in« spection district with headquarters in Troy, New York. Redistricting was necessary. No temporary employees under letter of authorization were auployed during the year.

The subi.project leader, who for many years administered the inspection and certification program in New England, retired on February 29 and was succeeded by the assistant sub-project leadere, The assistant sub«iproject leader vacancy was filled by promotion and transfer of an area leader from the Japanese Beetle Control Subiproject.

The chart on the following page shows all regular employees on the sub^»project rolls as of December 31, 1952.

REGUUTOfiï ACTIVITIES

General Statement

Regulatory work constitutes the principal activiiy of this sub.» irojectt The program which sets forth regulations designed to prevent the spread of the gypsy moth and brown^tail moth by regu-i lating potential carrier commodities or articles operates under authDrity of the Federal quarantine, and paralleling State quar-t antines in partially regulated States» In general the quarantine regulates movement from the quarantined area, of the following articlesi with certain exonptionss (1) Timber and timber products} (2) plants having persistent woody stems and parts thereofI including Christmas treesj (3) stone and quarry products; and (4) ar^r other commodities or articles x^hen found infested^ It also prohibits the movement of live gypsy moths or brown-tail moths in any stage of development, except under special permit for scientific lÄirposes* Certificates may be issued for the move* ment of regulated articles under any of the following conditions: (1) Khen in the judgment of the inspector, thQr have not been exposed to infestation; (2) when they have been inspected and found apparently free from infestationj id) when they have been treated by approved methods under the oî^servation of an inspector; and (4) when grown, produced or stored in such a manner that in the judgment of the inspector no infestation could be tmnsmitted thereby» Limited permits may be issued for the mov^aent of noncertified, regulated articles to specified destinations for designated processing, handling or utilization» Persons shipping, transporting or receiving such articles are required to enter into written agreement to maintain such safeguards as are neces^i sary against establishment and spread of infestation»

Inspection methods and procedures most commonly used as a basis for certification of the various restricted articles or products are more clearly defined under separate headings which follow»

Nursery Products

Regulatory wo^^k involving movement of nursery products is largely confined to the southern tetlf of the regulated area, where most of iiie principal nurseries in New England are located» Spring shipping of nursery stock commenced as soon as frost and moisture conditions permitted satisfactory digging operations, about mid- March, and continued until the end of June» Fall shipping started early in Septmber and continued until the ground again became frozen mm late in November»

The bulk of the nursery products certified for movement from the regulated areas consisted of cultivated, field-grovm stock from nursery establishments» Certification was either on the basis of visual inspection öir authorized DDT treatments* During the year, nine nurseries treated 410 acres of plots and 253 acres of border

13

areas to render or maintain stock eligible for certification* Of the total plot acaeage treated, initial prêchatch sprays were applied to 104 acres of new stock, and larval sprays were applied to 306 acres which had been treated the previous year«

Large quantities of wild plant material collected in fields and woodlands also moved under certificate from the regulated areas» In all cases certification was on the basis of visual, piece^by piece inspection. This iype of stock, although inferior in quality, is much in deniand for landscaping large housing projects in the met- ropolitan areas of New York and Pennsylvania because of the lower costs.

During the year a total of 41,211,320 plants and 8,785 packages of plant parts and cuttings, with an estimated value of $3,204,000 were certified for movement from the regulated areas» The total number of plants certified this year exceeded the total certified in 1951 by approximately 3 milliont

Gypsy moth infestations vrere found on 35 shipments of wild, field- collected plant material and one shipment of nursery-grown stock offered for inspectioné A total of 128 egg masses and one larva was removed fix>m these 36 shipments prior to certification and movement*

Timber Products

The inspection and certification of timber and timber products, which includes lumber, logs, poles, pulpwood and miscellaneous wood products, is continuous throughout the year* These services comprise much of the work in the northern and central sections of the regulated area. In addition, timber products from the nonregulated areas in Haine, Netf Harapshire and Vermont, destined to points in Canada, require certification to comply with the import restrictions of that country*

Methods of inspecting timber products varied. Many of the articles requiring certification were visually inspected. Woodland products such as logs, poles, pulp and fuelwood were usually certified for movasient after growing lots had been inspected and found free of infestation* The lot inspection method was largely employed in sections known to be lightly infested. Large quantities of lumber and other manufactured wood î^^oducts were certified on the basis of processing and storage methods, but 3Bany shipments required piece-by-piece inspection* Some timber products, such as waste wood for use as fuel, were fumigated with methyl bromide as a basis for certification* Eight boxcars, containing 217 cords of waste wood, were fumgated during the year, tîhen, in the judgment of the inspector, timber products were maintained under safe, sanitary conditions; or, when processing, producing or manufacturing methods precluded the possibility of gypsy moth infestation, certificates were issued in bulk to dealers or shippers under formal agreement*

14

Pulpwood and fuelwood shipments not eligible for certification were allowed to move under limited permits to specified industrial plants for immediate utilizationi in accordance with sanitary measures set forth in limited permit agreements^ Principal kinds of timber products certified for movement from the regulated areas consisted of 87,907,229 board feet of luanber; 4,281,600 pieces of logs and posts; 67,234 cords of wood; 45,751 bales of excelsior and shavingsj 118,090 bundles of cooperage; and 103,700 units of miscellaneous products* The estimated value of all timber products certified during the year was $10,227,371, In addition to the foregoing amounts, 82,068,549 board feet of logs and lumber; 150,765 pieces of logs and poles; and 8,289 cords of wood were certified to Canadian destinations from the non^regulated areas of Maine, New Hampshire and Verpiont* The estimated value of such Canadian shipments was $3,194,000, Rilp mills in New York and fuelwood consuEiers in Connecticut received 23,642 cords of wood, valued at $591,050, under limited perBiits,

There was a considerable decrease in the amount and value of timber products certified in 1952 as compared with the amount certified the previous year. The decrease was principally due to exemption from certification of certain processed lumber and other manufactured wood products, effective November 5, 1951,

Foriy«,seven shipments of timber products were found to be infested with gypsy moth forms at time of inspection and certification, from which 194 egg masses and 32 larvae were removed.

Stone and Quarry Products

The certification of stone and quarry products was reduced consid^ erably in 1952 due to exemption of these products from certification requirements when freshly quarried or manufactured and not exposed to infestation. Frequent checks ware made at production and storage sites to determine that exemption requirements were met,

♦

All stone and quarry products consigned to Canada were certified for movement from both the regulated and non-regulated areas of New fegland,

A total of 60,641 tons and 194,522 pieces of stone and quarry products was certified in 1952 as coEipared with 350^000 tons and 380,000 pieces certified in 1951« The estimated value of these products decreased proportionately from $28,000,000 in 1951 to $19,122^881 in 1952«

No infestation of the gypsy moth was found on any stone and quarry products inspected and certified for moveisient.

15

Everj^reen Products

Inspection and certification of Christmas trees and decorative evevm green materials constitutes the bulk of the regulatory work in the northern sections of the regulated area from early October until mid« December• This year Christmas tree cutting and bough production was considerably heavier than last year* Favorable weather, with very little snow prevailed throughout the cutting and shipping season* This, together with good prices and available labor throughout the season, encouraged production. Requests for inspection and certifi« cation of these materials increased accordingly. In addition to as* sis tance f\u*nished ty the States, it was necessary to shift inspectors from southern districts to the northern districts in order to meet the demands and accomplish the work*

Several methods of inspection were employed as a basis for certification of evergreen products; namely, visual or piece-»by-piece irim spection, lot inspection, and fumigation. In certain lightly infested sections, certification was based upon the inspectoras knowledge of infestation in the localily* During the year, 356 lotSf containing 15,152 acres were inspected and found free of infestation; thereto making eligible for certification 65,440 bales of boughs and 159,756 Christmas trees* Pour boxcars containing 8,300 Christmas trees were fumigated with methyl bromide under the observation of an inspector* This year 417,784 Christmas trees and 75,762 bales of evergreen boughs, with an estimated value of $455,826 were certified for movement from the regulated area* In 1951, 290,000 Christmas trees and 73,000 bales of boughs, valued at $400,000 were certified*

Gypsy moth infestation was found on eight shipments of Christmas titees and a total of 11 egg masses was removed prior to certifica«* tion*

Surveys

Within the quarantined area regulatory scouting surveys for both insects were conducted by district inspectors to determine condi» tions of infestation within each district« This phase of the work was performed throughout the year, either in conjunction with other work or separately, as time and seasonal conditions would permit. Scouting was confined principally to the vicinity of growing and production areas, coxmaon carrier sites, and localities containing favorable tree growth where moth infestation was most likely to occur* The granite producing area at Barre, Vermont was trap-scout surveyed» In the fall the Gypsy toth Control Project conducted an extensive appraisal surv^ within the infested area to develop similar and other pertinent data for control purposes« This agency, in cooperation with States concerned, also conducted trapi»scout survis in certain sections of the suppressive area« Infestation data, developed from all sources, i-sras made available to and used by inspectors in determining inspection methods nee* essary within given areas«

The Gypsy Moth Control Project, in cooperation with State agencies, also conducted trap-scout surveys to detect and delimit gypsy moth infestations in the unrestricted territory adjacent to the regu» lated area in Connecticut and New York« Although these survqrs were primarily intended to develop information for control or eradication programs, it was also available and used in determining regulatory action» The Control Project's 1951-52 trap-scout program resulted in the discovery of sufficient gypsy moth infestation in 21 towns in southwestern Connecticut to warrant their inclusion within the regulated area«

Service Calls

To meet demand for inspection and certification service by affected industries ^nd the public during the year, inspectors made 17,379 calls to approximately 2,000 corimercial establishments and 800 lÄ'ivate shippers« Of the total calls made, 15,422 were for gypsy moth inspection only, and 1,957 involved inspection for both the Gypsy toth and Japanese Beetle Quarantines«

Infested Shipments

During the year, ninety-one shipments of regulated articles were found infested with forms of the gypsy moth at time of inspection, A total of 333 egg masses and 33 larvae was raraoved from the ship« ments prior to certification and movement. This represents a con» siderable increase over 1951, when only 36 shipments were found infested, from which 87 egg masses were reoioved*

In addition, one uncertified shipment, consisting of 11 pieces of birch bark, was intercepted by a transit inspector and found to be infested with four new and ten old gypsy moth egg Biasses. This shipment, destined to Albany, New York, was returned to the consignor at Northampton, Massachusetts•

The following tables summarize shipments found infested. Table No♦ I gives the origin, number of shipments, kinds of regulated articles and infestations removed. Table No# II gives the destination of infested shipsients and infestations removed from each kind of regulated article.

Quarantine Vehicular Inspection

Throughout the year all district inspectors - as part of their regular duties and as tiiiie would permit m checked on the movement of restricted materials over highways for quarantine compliance. These activities were increased somewhat during the pre-ChristmaS| evergreen shipping season by assigning three inspectors from southern districts to this work exclusively. Also, through a cooperative arrangeaient with the Gypsy 14oth Control Project, three field workers of that agency stationed in the suppressive area of Connecticut and Vermont, checked on vehicular movement in con*, junction with their regular duties.

These efforts, along the many highways involved, resulted in check., ing 1,600 vehicles, of which 945 were carrying regulated articles properly certified or permitted for movoûient, and 51 transport« ing uncertified articles in violation of the quarantine« uncertified shipments were either inspected and certified by inter- cepting inspectors, or returned to the regulated area for inspection or disposal. In no case was legal action necessary«

Results of the vehicular inspection activities indicate that approximately 62^ of the vehicles checked were carrying regulated articles, and that more than 5% of such movement was in violation of the quarantine. This, together with the ever increasing 33K)ve- rient of products and commodities via motor vehicle, indicates a definite need for the work and the necessily for its expansion«

Transit Interceptions

District inspectors investigated 142 alleged violations of the quarantine discovered by transit inspectors. Many additional violations thus reported were in the process of. investigation at the end of the year. The majoriiy of intercepllons involved parcel post shipments of plants, plant ümterials, and decorative cuttings shipped by private individuals, AH shippers concerned were visited and after regulations were duly ecplained, promise of full cooperation in quarantine compliance for future shipments was obtained. Similarly, regulations were more clearly defined to all transportation agents involved.

COOPEHATION

General Statement

The relations between this sub-project and the various cooperating Bureau, State and public agencies have been constantly maintained at a high level« All regulated States furnished extra personnel at various times during tl:^ year to meet seasonal or unusual demands for services; also in a number of cases they provided office space and telephone service« Producers and shippers of regulated materials cooperated in developing now

21

methods or improving present methods of certification. Many concerns operating junk yards, trailer parks or open storage areas where in^ festible materials might have been stored applied recoinmended, insec« ticidal sprays to reduce or eliminate the hazard of spread. Agents for truckerS| railroads and other common carriers and personnel of the Post Office Department cooperated by inforrrdng shippers of restricted materials regarding quarantine requirements^ Other Bureau agencies operating in the same general areas cooperated by exclianging information or by having their personnel provide limited assistance in certain phases of the work} also by loaning special equipment and motor vehicles for short periods^

Cooperation Tfith Other Bureau Agencies

One district inspector was loaned to the Gypsy Itoth Control Project for three weeks during March to assist with the repair and condi«* tioning of traps; two district inspectors were loaned for a period of two weeks during the month of July to assist with the gypsy üioth

"pupae collection program^

One district inspector was loaned to the Division of Plant Quaran- tines for a period of eight weeks (March 15 to May 15) to assist with peak spring import inspections at the Hoboken, New Jersey In- spection House,

All project field employées continued to report any insect or plant disease outbreaks observed, during performance of assigned duties, to agencies concerned.

Scouting for the European chafer (Amphima.llon ma^alis - Saz^) was cpiM^cted at several locations along the Wilbur Cross Parkway, from Meriden to New Haven, Connecticut, Project and Connecticut State inspectors cooperated in this work« Observations were made on June 27, 28^ 30 and July 1, 2 and 3, Fifteen chafers were collected on June 27 at a location in the TowA of Meriden found infested in 1951» Chafers were also observed at this location on the other dates mentioned, although in smaller numbers. Observations at other locations along the parkway proved negative. Chafer scouting was also performed by district inspectors at the Bay State I^series, North Abington, liassachusetts and at Scituate, Massachusetts, Results were negative at both locations.

In September a group of project inspectors attended a field trip arranged with and conducted by personnel of the Division of Forest Insect Investigations, to observe and become familiar \fith injury caused by Matsucoccus scale in red pine stands near Norwalk, Connecticut, As a result all inspectors made observations at other red pine plantings in woodlands an<l nurseries throughout the gypsy moth area to detect the presence of this scale. All red pine stands and plantiîxgs observed were recorded for future observations.

Incidental to performance of their own Aities, field workers of the Gypsy Moth Control Eroject| stationed in the suppressive area of Connecticut and Vermont, assisted with road patrol activities by checking motor vehicles transporting regulated articles for quarantine compliance. These eaployees also inspected and certified small non«commercial shiianents of regulated articles throughout the year, as did others stationed in the regulated area of New York« The Control Plroject also made available pertinent data, developed through its survey programs, which was very useful to this sub-project in determining regulatory action and certification methods in certain sections^

Baployees of the Blister fiust control Project, located within the regulated area, inspected and certified small non*.commercial shipnents of articles restricted by the Gypsy toth Quarantine, when such shipments were brought to their office by the shipper«

The Division of Forest Insect Investigations continued mth cooperative tests 1x) develop effective mite controls in nursery plots treated vdth DDT for gypsy moth certification purposes«

EQUIRÍENT

Other than shop-made, portable methyl bromide fumigation units, the equipment used by project personnel consists principally of motor vehicles for transportation. At the close of the year, 27 vehicles were currently in use, and two unassigned vehicles were available for seasonal woi^kers«

Six vehicles were obtained during the year to replace older models« Two 1952 panel delivery trucks were purchased; two surplus 1950 half-ton pickup trucks were obtained froBi the Bar- berry Eradication Project in Nebraska; one 1949 panel delivery and one 1948 station wagon were obtained by transfer from the Golden and the Japanese Beetle Control Projects respectively« Five vehicles, thus replaced (two 1940 passenger cars and three 1948 trucks) are in storage awaiting disposition«

Three 1940 passenger cars and one 1941 panel truck, declared surplus in 1951, were disposed of early in the year through transfer to State institutions, or sale«

United States Department of Agriculture


BUREAU OF ENTOMOLOGY AND PLANT QUARANTINE

DOMESTIC QUARANTINE NOTICES

GYPSY MOTH AND BROWN-TAIL MOTH QUARANTINE

(QUARANTINE NO. 45)

Introductory Note

The principal changes made by this revision of the quarantine and regulations are (1) to redefine as "generally infested" the regulated area formerly classified as "lightly" and "generally" infested, thus eliminating the classification of "lightly infested area"; (2) to add to the regulated area part of eastern New York, additional areas of Connecticut and Vermont, and that part of Massachusetts not heretofore included in the regulated area, these additional areas to be known as the "suppressive area" ; (3) to redefine the boundary of the area regulated on account of the brown-tail moth; and (4) to prohibit the unauthorized movement of live gypsy and brown-tail moths in any stage of development, and for this purpose, to provide for inspection of articles not listed as regulated and, if found infested, to prevent their interstate movement until freed of infestation.

NOTICE OF DETERMINATION OF THE SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE

AUTHORITY: §§ 301.45 to 301.45-10, inclusive, are issued under section 8 of the Plant Quarantine Act of August 20, 1912, as amended, 37 Stat. 318, 39 Stat. 1165, 44 Stat. 250 ; 7 U. S. C. 1940 ed. 161, and the Insect Pest Act of March 3, 1905 ; 7 U. S. C. 1940 ed. 141, 143.

The Secretary of Agriculture has determined that it is necessary further to revise the gypsy moth and brown-tail moth quarantine and regulations supplemental thereto, which were last revised effective September 29, 1938, in order to place under regulation part of the State of New York and to extend the regulated area in the States of Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont due to the discovery of substantial infestations of the gypsy moth therein ; and to incorpo- rate into the quarantine and regulations, additional modifications as herein- after set forth. The quarantine and regulations are therefore hereby revised to read as follows :

GYPSY MOTH AND BROWN-TAIL MOTH QUARANTINE

(QUARANTINE NO. 45)

§ 301.45. Notice of quarantine.—Under the authority conferred by section 8 of the Plant Quarantine Act of August 20, 1912, as ainended, and having held the public hearing required thereunder, the Secretary of Agriculture quarantines the States of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont, and under authority contained in the aforesaid

670484°—45 (1)

Plant Quarantine Act and the Insect Pest Act of March 3, 1905, the Secretary of Agriculture prescribes regulations to prevent further spread of the gypsy moth (Porthetria dispar L.) and the brown-tail moth {Nygmia phaeorrhoea Donov.), injurious insects of foreign origin not widely distributed within and throughout the United States. Hereafter the following articles shall not be transported by any person, firm, or corporation from any quarantined State into or through any other State or Territory or District of the United States, under conditions other than those prescribed herein or in the regulations supplemental hereto, viz: (a) Live gypsy moths or brown-tail moths in any stage of development; (b) trees, shrubs, plants, and vines, both deciduous and evergreen, having persistent woody stems, and parts thereof, including Christmas trees; (c) timber products; (d) stone and quarry products; and (e) any other commodities or articles when found on inspection to be infested with the aforesaid insects in any of their stages : Provided, That the restrictions of this quarantine and of the regulations supplemental hereto may be limited to such areas, within the quarantined States, as are now or may hereafter be designated by the Secretary of Agriculture as regulated areas, adequate, in his judgment, to prevent the spread of the gypsy and brown-tail moths, except that any such limitation shall be conditioned upon the affected State or States providing for and enforcing the control of the intrastate movement of the regulated articles under the conditions which apply to their interstate movement under provisions of the Federal quarantine regulations, currently existing; and upon their enforcing such control and sanitation measures with respect to such areas or portions thereof as, in the judgment of the Secretary of Agriculture, shall be deemed adequate to prevent the intrastate spread therefrom of the said insect infestations : And provided further, That whenever, in any year, the Chief of the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quaran- tine shall find that facts exist as to the pest risk involved in the movement of one or more of the articles to which the regulations supplemental hereto apply, making it safe to modify, by making less stringent, the restrictions contained in any such regulation, he shall set forth and publish such finding in administrative instructions, specifying the manner in which the applicable regulation will be made less stringent, whereupon such modification shall become effective, for such period and for such regulated area or portion thereof as shall be specified in said administrative instructions, and every reasonable eifort shall be made to give publicity to such administrative instructions throughout the affected areas.

5 -

of Entornologj and Plant Quarantine that control or eradication of the gypsy moth in any section of the suppressive area is "being hampered or Jeopardized through movement of regulated articles into such sections, the Chief of the Bureau may, after appropriate notice, require inspection and certification, as provided in § 301.^5-5 (a), for any or all regulated articles moving into such designated sections from other parts of the suppressive area.

§ 301.^5-5 Conditions governing the issuance of certificates and permits, (a) Certificates. Certificates may "be issued for the interstate movement of regulated articles under one or more of the following conditions: (l) When, in the judgment of the inspector, they have not been exposed to infestation; (2) when they have "been inspected and found apparently free from infestation; (3) when they have "been treated by approved methods under the observation of an inspector; and (k) when they have been grown, produced, manufactured, stored or handled in such a manner that, in the Judgment of the inspector, no infestation could be transmitted thereby: Provided, That subsequent to certification, the regulated articles must be safeguarded against reinfestation as required by the inspector.

For movement by road vehicle, a certificate or limited permit shall accompany the vehicle and, except when transportation is by common carrier, it shall be surrendered to consignee upon delivery of shipment.

These amendments shall be effective August 9^ 1952.

The p-urpose of the amendment of s 301.^5 is to rephrase and simplify the items that are subject to quarantine .

The amendment also adds to the suppressive area in Connecticut all of the above-mentioned towns with the exception of Watertown, in Litchfield County, and Cheshire and Wallingford, in New Haven County. The latter three towns are added to the generally infested area.

Section 301.^5-3 (b) is also amended to conform with changes in the notice of quarantine, and si 301.45-1 (e), 301.^5-4 (c), 301.^5-5, 301.45-7, and 301.4-5-8 are rephrased in a number of minor respects in the interest of clarity and improved efficiency of quarantine operation.

Prompt action is necessary with respect to the newly regulated areas in order to control the movement therefrom of articles that might spread the gypsy and brown-tail moths. Other changes are of assistance to the public in interpreting the regulations. Therefore, good cause is found, in accordance with section 4 (c) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U. S. C. 1003 (c)) for making the foregoing amendments effective less than 30 days after their publication in the Federal Register.

(Sees. 1, 3, 33 Stat. 1269, 1270, sec. 8, 37 Stat. 3l8, as amended; 7 U. S. C. l4l, 143, l6l)

I6I), and being satisfied from the evidence submitted that the movement of the articles listed herein will not result in the dissemination of the gypsy moth or "brown-tail moth, the Chief of the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine here"by amends the administrative instructions (7 CFR 301.45a; B. E. P. Q. 386, Rev.) exempting certain articles from the requirements of the regulations supplemental to such quarantine (7 CFR 301.^5-1 öt seq.) to read as follows:

quirements of regulations supplemental to gypsy moth and "brown-tail moth quarantine. The interstate movement of the following articles, except when they are maintained \mder conditions exposing them to infestation, is hereby exempted from the requirements of the regulations supplemental to the gypsy moth and brown-tail moth quarantine (7 CFR 301.^5-1 et seq.):

(^) Timber Products

1. Manufactured wood products, such as box shooks, shingles, laths, floor- ing, furniture, containers, crates, handles, dowels, staves, and industrial blocking.

2. L"umber dressed fovcr sides by running through a planer and ends clipped.

The foregoing administrative instructions add several articles to the list of those that may move interstate from the regulated areas without certification. Accordingly they relieve restrictions now in effect. Several items included in the previous list have been omitted because they are no longer being shipped, or xhej are not woody-stemmed plants or parts thereof and therefore are not subject to the certification requirements. In order to be of maximum benefit to shippers of these articles, the exemptions should be made available as soon as possible. Therefore, pursuant to section k of tlie Administrative Procedure Act (5 U. S. C. 1003) it is found upon good cause that notice and public procedTzt'e on the foregoing administrative instructions are unnecessary, impracticable, and contr<ary to the public interest, and since these instructions relieve restrictions they may properly be made effective under said section k less than thirty da.ys after their publication in the Federal Eegister.
