Résumé

This Part of Chapter 593 of the Florida Statutes provides for pest eradication in urbanized areas. To carry out its duties with respect to emergency responses to plant pest infestations when the eradication programs involve the aerial application of a pesticide to an urbanized area, the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services of Florida shall use a pesticide previously approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency for that eradication purpose; and provide a system for dissemination of information to the public about infestations of pests that are the subject of such eradication programs. During such programs, the Department of Health shall monitor health problems that result from chemical exposure about which complaints are made to physicians and health care facilities. Before the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services begins an emergency response, the department shall notify the public. The Department of Health shall provide physicians and health care facilities in an area in which the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is conducting an emergency response. It will also provide technical assistance to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
