§ 927.701.
(A) As used in this section, “ gypsy moth ” means the live insect, Lymantria dispar, in any stage of development. (B) The director of agriculture may establish a voluntary gypsy moth suppression program
under which a landowner may request that the department of agriculture have the landowner's
property aerially sprayed to suppress the presence of gypsy moths in exchange for
payment from the landowner of a portion of the cost of the spraying. To determine the total cost per acre, the department shall add the per-acre cost
of the product selected by the landowner to suppress gypsy moths and the per-acre
cost of applying the product as determined by the director in rules. To determine the aggregate total cost, the department shall multiply the total cost
per acre by the number of acres that the landowner requests to be sprayed. The department shall add to that amount any administrative costs that it incurs
in billing the landowner and collecting payment. The portion of the cost that is assessed to the landowner, if any, shall be determined
by the funding that is allocated to the department by the federal and state gypsy
moth suppression programs. (C) The director shall adopt rules under Chapter 119. of the Revised Code to establish
procedures under which a landowner may make a request under division (B) of this section,
to establish the per-acre cost of applying product to suppress gypsy moths, and to
establish provisions governing agreements between the department and landowners concerning
gypsy moth suppression together with any other provisions that the director considers
appropriate to administer this section. (D) The director shall deposit all money collected under this section to the credit of
the plant pest program fund created in section 927.54 of the Revised Code . Money credited to the fund under this section shall be used for the suppression
of gypsy moths in accordance with this section.
