Was this confirmed officially? Not seeing CRB damage, the tree appears damaged by other insects and possible diseases. Can you confirm boreholes? They’re usually 2-3 inch holes on the trunk close to the crown. I’d report this to DLNR ASAP to confirm.

Could very well be, sometimes machetes make the same markings when people harvest the leaves or cut the crown for whatever reason it can also make those v shaped cuts after the leaves grow again. The rotting on the leaves just make me want to look twice. Good looking out

Whoever you are, I like you! I hope this is the reason. I saw some worse looking trees further down the road though, and my heart sank into my chest. But will update you with pics and DLNR response today.
