The New York Department of Environmental Conservation adopted section 192.5 of Title 6 NYCRR, an emergency rulemaking that protects the state's forests from invasive insects carried on firewood and introduced into non-infested forests. The regulation was passed to prevent the transportation of potentially infested firewood by campers during the height of the state's camping season. http://www.dos.state.ny.us/info/register/2008/jun18/pdfs/rules.pdf pp. 5-9.
