State agri board approves new pesticide rule revisions
After five more hours of discussion the state agriculture board passed a final draft of pesticide rule revisions. Notified adjacent landowners and beekeepers 24 hours before spraying and posting fields with safe re entry times remained. Controversial postings for pesticide storage and bee-toxic labeling were dropped. The board amended drift versus overspray definitions following testimony. Environmental groups urged stricter controls and penalties and warned of pesticide contact risk. Agencies prepare findings for legislative review and potential January 1 effectiveness.
