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.
