The budgetrequest for 2019 <br />is $50,000. Therefore, the total2019EAB Fund Balancemaybe$71,000. The 2019 <br />treatment commitment is $15,000. Available monies for removal and replacements for 2019 <br />will be $56,000. That current funding level would more than likely allow for very limited, if <br />any, replacements in 2019. <br /> <br />As the infestation continues to spread the removals will increase. Due to the potential <br />hazards, removals are priority over replacements. As removals increase the fund will run out <br />of money at our current funding levels. In addition, as infestationcontinuesto increase <br />removals may exceed the capacity of a single contractor. <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br />
