December 2020 Virtual Breakfast Meeting
December 2020 Virtual Breakfast Meeting
The AWMA-CNY Chapter will host our next monthly program with a virtual “breakfast meeting” scheduled for Tuesday, December 15, 2020. Donald Nelson, Adirondack/Finger Lakes Section Chief for the Bureau of Pesticides Management in the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, will present on New York State Pesticide Management. This program will provide an overview and update on pesticide regulation in New York, including the rules for pesticide application, registration, and reporting, as well as regulatory changes on the horizon. This presentation will also explore which materials qualify as a “pesticide” and how that relates to pressing matters of community concern, including potential pitfalls about using different substances to combat the coronavirus during the COVID-19 pandemic and mitigation of Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) in our waters.
