[APWG] State Highway Department Invasive Programs?

[Marc Imlay]

When we asked Maryland SHA (State Highway Administration) to remove the ~
100 Ailanthus trees that had entered our 50 acre Lower Beaverdam Creek
natural area in Cheverly from the highway, they got right to it last year.
It took one afternoon with basal bark treatment. I assisted SHA and also got
the remaining ~10 trees myself that were the responsibility of the city of
Cheverly.
