  • Potential Spray Drift Damage: What Steps to Take?
    [email protected] • (479) 575-7646 www.nationalaglawcenter.org An Agricultural Law Research Publication Potential Spray Drift Damage: What Steps to Take? by Tiffany Dowell Lashmet Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service This material is based upon work supported by the National Agricultural Library, Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. An Agricultural & Food Law Consortium Project Potential Spray Drift Damage: What Steps to Take? Tiffany Dowell Lashmet Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service As many farmers know all too well, applications of various pesticides can result in drift and cause damage to neighboring property owners. In recent years, incidences of spray drift damage have been frequent and well-publicized. In the event a farmer discovers damage to his or her own crop, it is important for the injured producer to know some steps to take. Document, Document, Document First and foremost, any farmer who suspects possible injury from drift should document all potential evidence, including taking photographs or samples of damaged crops or foliage, keeping a log of spray applications made by neighboring landowners, noting any custom applicators applying pesticide in the area, documenting environmental conditions like wind speed, direction, and temperatures, and getting statements from any witnesses who might have seen recent pesticide applications. Photographs should be taken continually for several days, as the full extent of damage may not occur for several weeks after application. The more documentation a landowner has, the better his chances of recovery will be; whether it is from the offender, the offender’s insurance or potentially even the injured party’s insurance.

    Material Safety Data Sheet DANITOL 2.4 EC (WARNING Statement) This Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) serves different purposes than and DOES NOT REPLACE OR MODIFY THE EPA-APPROVED PRODUCT LABELING (attached to and accompanying the product container). This MSDS provides important health, safety, and environmental information for employers, employees, emergency responders and others handling large quantities of the product in activities generally other than product use, while the labeling provides that information specifically for product use in the ordinary course. Use, storage and disposal of pesticide products is regulated by the EPA under the authority of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) through the product labeling. All necessary and appropriate precautionary, use, and storage, and disposal information is set forth on that labeling. It is a violation of federal law to use a pesticide product in any manner not prescribed on the EPA-approved label. 1.

  • Draft Spray Drift Workgroup
    April 17, 2007 Spray Drift Workgroup – Final Report to PPDC Executive Summary The Spray Drift workgroup to the Pesticide Program Dialogue Committee met five times over the course of the last year in response to EPA’s request for input on how to mitigate risks to water from pesticide use. The workgroup was pleased that the OW and OPP are working together on this issue. The workgroup decided to focus primarily on: • Labeling to mitigate spray drift; • The role of education, training, and stewardship; and • Practices and equipment to mitigate drift and adverse effects from drift. Issues the EPA decided were beyond the scope of this workgroup include: 1) the content of EPA’s proposed rule concerning whether use of a pesticide requires a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit (because the rule concerned aquatic pesticide applications, not pesticide spray drift, and because the comment period for the rule was closed and it was still in internal Agency review) and 2) the off­target movement of pesticides through volatilization. In addition, the workgroup discussed “complex issues” surrounding spray drift, including: • What constitutes “harm” from spray drift? • Design standards vs. performance standards • Tailoring regulatory restrictions to local conditions, and • Determining the real world impacts of pesticide labeling The following report for each of these topics presents a summary of what the workgroup did, consensus findings, and, where possible, consensus recommendations to EPA to be considered by the full PPDC. Where consensus was not achieved, individual workgroup members provided additional comments for EPA consideration. These comments do not reflect the position of the workgroup as a whole but are included to provide EPA with a complete range of views on the topic.

    Environmental Assessment for Dow/Pioneer Rootworm Resistant Corn APHIS’ Analysis and Response to Comments Received on Petition 03-353-01p and the EA. A total of two comments were submitted during the designated 60-day comment period by a private individual and a national trade association. The comment submitted by the trade association supported deregulation of the Cry34/35 Ab1 corn rootworm resistant corn (CRW). This comment stressed the importance of a different mechanism of control compared to the only CRW resistant corn product on the market while providing a new option for managing insect resistance. The commenter also mentioned that this product would provide a wider range of plant protection. The comment in opposition to deregulation of this product was submitted by a private citizen. This commenter expressed a general disapproval of genetically modified plants and suggested that this product should always be regulated. APHIS disagrees with this comment. The author fails to provide any information to support her assertion that this petition should be denied. The commenter also suggested that APHIS extend the comment period, but failed to provide a reason for the extension. Further, this commenter discussed pesticidal issues related to EPA’s role in the regulation of plant incorporated protectants. APHIS defers to EPA on issues related to EPA’s authority. - 2 - Environmental Assessment for Dow/Pioneer Rootworm Resistant Corn USDA/APHIS Decision on Dow AgroSciences and Pioneer Hi-Bred International Petition 03-353-01P Seeking a Determination of Nonregulated Status for Bt cry34/35Ab1 Insect Resistant Corn Line DAS-59122-7 Environmental Assessment TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

  • Integrated Pest Management Procedure Manual
    SSC Facilities Services at Texas A&M University Integrated Pest Management Procedure Manual revised 6/2018 INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT PROCEDURE MANUAL SSC Services for Education 600 Agronomy Road College Station, Texas 77843 Written by: Amanda J. Bakken Under the direction of: Bryan McGee Layout and Design by: Barbara Musgrove PURPOSE OF BOOK The purpose of this Integrated Pest Management (IPM) book is to educate pest management technicians and the Texas A&M University (TAMU) campus on the newly adopted IPM plans and policies. This book includes the IPM policies, objectives, recordkeeping, and requirements that will be used by technicians. This book is not comprehensive, but an ongoing work in progress that is meant to be updated as more effective techniques, technologies, and methods become available to properly maintain and prevent pests. Pest-specific examples, including visual references, are given and should be referenced as needed. SSC Services for Education and TAMU take the safety and well-being of students, faculty, staff, and visitors seriously. Dangers associated with pesticides exist to humans, animals, and the environment, but by following this plan many of these risks can be mitigated and effective management of pests and diseases can be exacted. DEFINITION OF IPM AND PROCEDING POLICIES Integrated Pest Management, or IPM, is an ecosystem-based strategy that focuses on long-term prevention of pests or their damage through a combination of techniques. Techniques include mechanical control, genetic manipulation and control, regulatory practices, biological control, habitat manipulation, modification of cultural practices, and use of resistant varieties of plants. Pesticides are used only after surveillance and/or monitoring indicates they are needed.
