Abstract
Information presented here, was obtained generally from 3 sources: the Cooperative Forest Health Protection Program, the Forest Inventory and Analysis Program and the National Forest Health Monitoring Program. The Cooperative Forest Health Protection Program is a joint State-Federal effort responsible for forest-wide surveys of forest damage. From these surveys, we gather information about the nature and extent of insect, disease, and weather caused damage to trees and forests. These surveys are conducted by State and Federal pest specialists.
