Advancements in fighting African swine fever
In the heart of Wiesbaden, a new development has emerged. A protective corridor, known as the "White Zone," has been established to safeguard the city and its surroundings from the threat of African Swine Fever (ASF).
This zone, visible through newly erected fences, is designed to contain the spread of ASF and protect the city's environment. The Schiersteiner Aue, a popular park area, is part of this protective corridor, surrounding the core areas where ASF could potentially be present.
The city's environmental or park management department is responsible for implementing certain policies within the Schiersteiner Aue area related to the White Zone. For instance, dogs must be leashed, and pedestrians are required to follow a specific path.
Moreover, the White Zone offers opportunities for hunters and farmers. Intensive wild boar hunting is planned within the zone, aiming to control the wild boar population and limit the possibility of ASF transmission. Additionally, agriculture within the white zone has been granted further easements to ensure the smooth operation of farming activities.
The Press Office of the State Capital Wiesbaden, located at Schlossplatz 6, 65183 Wiesbaden, is the publisher of this press release. For any questions or concerns regarding the White Zone, citizens are encouraged to contact the responsible department or office of the State Capital Wiesbaden.
In addition to the fencing, increased drone flights are expected in the white zone to monitor the situation and ensure the effectiveness of the measures taken. The completion of the fencing is planned for early October, marking a significant step in the city's efforts to protect itself from African Swine Fever.
