Ash disease heads up

[Jesse]

I'm not doubting what you can do with green uncontaminated waste.

I think the point is that it is classed as a quarantine pest, maybe open fires on site are not considered an adequate method of destruction.

 

I would consider that the powers that be think chipping arisings will be a cleaner way of disposal , I don't for one minute believe that the bureaucrats who produce these specifications have ever used a chipper, burning on site would be a far more effective and cleaner method of disposal compared to chipping which with all the dust blown into the air disperse the problem more easily, and leave a lasting legacy under ground for future generations to deal with. A sort of not very pleasant time capsule

Some ash in a wood I look after have strange distorted leaves like those in the article picture. Meant to ask about it ages ago... Will go take a look this week.
