Abstract
We are quarantining 13 counties in Michigan because of the emerald ash borer and restricting the interstate movement of regulated articles from these quarantined areas. This action is necessary on an emergency basis to prevent the artificial spread of this plant pest from infested areas in the State of Michigan to noninfested areas of the United States.
