Title

Phytophthora ramorum Management Zone

Alternative title(s)

P. ramorum Management Zone

Abstract

An area in south-west Scotland at the heart of a major surge of P. ramorum on larch in 2013 was designated as a Management Zone by the Plant Health (Forestry) (Phytophthora ramorum Management Zone) Order 2014. Within this zone the disease was too advanced to stop its spread within the area, so efforts have been focused on tackling new outbreaks in Scotland outside the Management Zone. This dataset shows the boundary of the Management Zone, as defined in Schedule 2 of the Order. The Order makes special arrangements for the movement of larch within an area known as the Management Zone. Scottish Forestry will no longer issue Statutory Plant Health Notices within the Management Zone and statutory controls on the movement of all roundwood, larch timber and associated, potentially infectious, products will be applied to such material only if it leaves this area.

Lineage

The Management Zone boundary is based on the description in Schedule 2 of The Plant Health (Forestry) (Phytophthora ramorum Management Zone) (Scotland) Order 2014. The coastal boundary is derived from the open OS BoundaryLine local authority boundaries. The inland boundary was captured by tracing relevant features from the OS Open Rivers and OS Open Roads datasets where appropriate, and following landforms in other areas.
