An EAB management plan begins with a careful assessment of the condition of each ash tree, and calculations to compare the cost of the various option for treatment or removal. While some of the ash trees should undoubtedly be removed to diversity the species mix, it may be possible to save the healthier ones and chemically treat them to protect them until the EAB threat subsides. Here is a web link to Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of Forestry, which focus on EAB and how you can start a management plan for your community.
