Wood chips carry Ceder apple rust


We had a pile of woodchips delivered last summer, and it has sat for about a year next to a few Ceder trees. The woodchips we ordered turned out to have Ceder in them. We are now hoping to move the chips down to our apple orchard (which as no nearby Ceders) but are worried about bringing in Ceder apple rust. How long do the spores live in dead wood. There is heavy fungal activity in the pile and it has been breaking down. Thanks!
