This meeting will include both sit down discussion and walking field trip components. The morning will include updates on ISHB/GSOB/SAPW and pertinent legislation, round table discussion from attendees throughout southern California addressing concerns or opportunities regarding tree pest outbreaks and their control, and committee business items, such as election of officers. We will break for a brown bag lunch and then head out to visit nearby field sites including trees infested with ISHB and discussion on efforts to manage and monitor their impact and spread.
