2003 Minnesota Statutes

     18G.11 Cooperation with other jurisdictions. 

    The commissioner may enter into cooperative agreements with 
 organizations, persons, civic groups, governmental agencies, or 
 other organizations to adopt and execute plans to detect and 
 control areas infested or infected with harmful plant pests.  
 The cooperative agreements may include provisions of joint 
 funding of any control treatment. 

    If a harmful plant pest infestation or infection occurs and 
 cannot be adequately controlled by individual persons, owners, 
 tenants, or local units of government, the commissioner may 
 conduct the necessary control measures independently or on a 
 cooperative basis with federal or other units of government.
