private and commercial
applicators. Certification
will be given upon passing a
certification exam. The
program will be fully im

The bureau cannot im

make a final draft until they
are given a list of the af

Environmental Protection
Agency. Until this list is
released, manufacturers and
blenders say they’ll have a
hard time planning their
products. Lawn and garden
manufacturers would not
want to put restricted
pesticides in their products.
PennAg, for example, will
be setting up training
sessions for its state-wide
membership and giving out
information.
