70.* BUREAU OF ENTOMOLOGY AND PLANT QUARANTINE [July-Sept 
The increased numbers of gypsy moth egg clusters found in parts of Maine 
have been sufficient, however, to justify classifying as generally infested, parts 
of the six counties of Franklin, Kennebec, Oxford, Penobscot, Somerset, and 
Waldo, in that State, as well as parts of the counties of Orange, Windham, and 
Windsor, in Vermont, and a district in Coos County, N. H., formerly found to 
be lightly infested. 
GYPSY MOTH AND BROWN-TAIL MOTH QUARANTINE (QUARANTINE 
NO. 45) 
REVISION OF QUARANTINE AND REGULATIONS 
INTRODUCTORY NOTE 
The principal changes in this revision of the quarantine and the regulations 
are (1) the release from regulation of certain towns in Coos County, N. H., 
and parts of the counties of Caledonia, Essex, Lamoille, and Rutland, Vt. ; and 
(2) the transfer from lightly infested to generally infested area of part of 
Coos County, N. H., parts of the Maine counties of Franklin, Kennebec, Oxford, 
Penobscot, Somerset, and Waldo, and parts of the Vermont counties of Orange, 
Windham, and Windsor. The quarantine as revised provides for modifications 
of its restrictions in accordance with facts as to pest risk found by the Chief 
of the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine and set forth in adminis- 
trative instructions. 
Former regulations 2 and 4 have been discontinued and the present regula- 
tions have been renumbered. 
SUMMARY 
The regulated area includes the entire State of Rhode Island and parts of 
Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont. The re- 
stricted articles, unless exempted by administrative instructions, are as fol- 
lows: (1) Coniferous trees, such as spruce, fir, hemlock, pine, juniper (cedar), 
and arborvitae (white cedar), without roots, known as Christmas trees, aiid 
parts thereof, and evergreen decorative plants, such as boxwood, holly, and 
laurel, and their parts ; (2) forest-plant products, including logs, tanbark, posts, 
poles, car stakes, railroad ties, cordwood, empty cable reels, and lumber; (3) 
trees, shrubs, vines, and all plants having persistent woody stems, and parts of 
such plants excepting seeds and fruit ; and (4) stone and quarry products 
(regulation 1). 
Under these regulations no restricted articles shall be moved interstate from 
the regulated areas to or through any point outside thereof, nor from the 
generally infested area to the lightly infested area, except under a certificate 
or permit (regulation 3). 
Christmas trees and evergreen boughs originating in the generally infested 
area are not allowed to be moved interstate to any point outside of thai area, 
and no certificate or permit will be issued authorizing such movement unless 
such trees have been grown as nursery stock in a cultivated nursery and are 
certified under the provisions of regulation 4. 
Deciduous trees and such parts thereof as bear leaves are not allowed to be 
moved from the brown-tail moth infested area to outside points without a cer- 
tificate or permit, except that a State nursery inspection certificate may be 
substituted in the case of certain classes of movement within the gypsy moth 
regulated areas (regulation 3). 
Woody plants grown in the greenhouse throughout the year and cut flowers 
thereof may be shipped interstate without inspection and certification on con- 
dition that each box or package is plainly labeled to show that the contents 
were greenhouse grown. 
For the conditions governing inspection and certification, marking require- 
ments, and similar details, see regulations 4 to 10, inclusive.

Plant Quarantine, 266 Glenwood Avenue, Bloomfield, N. J.
