In May and June 1979, the Maine Forest Service conducted its Cooperative Spruce Budworm Suppression Project. The project was a cooperative venture of the State of Maine, the State's forest landowners, and the U.S. Forest Service, which supplied technical advice and financial assistance. This report summarizes operational details of implementing the spray project and reports it's effectiveness in population reduction and foliage protection. The forest condition, expected budworm populations, and tree hazard estimates for 1980 are also presented.
