Policies and procedures
Pesticide Use Policy
In accordance with the university’s storm-water permit and pesticide use policy, pesticide applicators are to notify Central Answering and Response Service, 263-3333, prior to using a pesticide. In addition, applicators are to notify faculty, staff, students and visitors of their pesticide use by a reasonable and effective means, such as posting signs where pesticides have been applied; distributing posters, flyers and electronic mail to people who may frequent the application area; or publishing a notice on the Safety Department’s Web site: http://www.fpm.wisc.edu/safety . The policy is posted there.
The Pesticide Use Policy encourages best management practices that maximize effectiveness and safety, and minimize environmental impact. Pesticides used in research and teaching are expected to abide by this policy’s objectives, although alternative procedures may be allowed for the purposes of academic study.
Check http://www.fpm.wisc.edu/safety or call Sally Rowe of the Safety Department at 262-0979 for pesticide label information, information about hazards and exposures to using pesticides, or information regarding pollutants in storm water.
