To control the spread of the emerald ash borer, a firewood quarantine has been established for the counties of Arlington, Fairfax, Fauquier, Loudoun and Prince William as well as for the cities of Alexandria, Fairfax City, Falls Church, Manassas and Manassas Park. It is unlawful to transport firewood from these localities. Please click here for more detail (PDF).
