This allows our association to create a strong and defined voice. Our association has influenced the Ontario pesticide by law and many other important issues that affect our industries future. | EAB BOOKLET AVAILABLE The OCAA, in collaboration with the City of Toronto (Urban Forestry) and the Ministry of Natural Resources, has released a booklet entitled What you need to know about the management of EAB: Guidelines for hiring tree care services to manage urban trees. This free booklet, produced with provincial funding, provides information about EAB, outlines factors to be considered when assessing management options, and what property owners should be looking for when hiring an arborist or tree care company.
