  The Leavenworth drop-off brush site serves residents and businesses in the Apple Maggot Quarantine Zone, which includes much of western Chelan County, including Leavenworth, Plain and Lake Wenatchee.

  State law prohibits brush and homegrown fruit from a quarantine area to leave a quarantine area. The Dryden Transfer Station is located in a pest-free area; it does not accept yard waste from the quarantine area.

  If you live in the quarantine area:

• Do not take homegrown fruit and green waste to the Dryden Transfer Station.
• Do not put homegrown fruit and green waste in your curbside garbage container.
• Do not take homegrown fruit and green waste out of the quarantined area.
