Application of Pesticides Near Schools,
Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Adult and Child Day Care Centers
Chapter 16-228 WAC
Public comment was received during the revision of the General Pesticide Rules (WAC 16-228) in 2003/4 concerning further modifications to WAC 16-228-1220(4), application of pesticides near schools, hospitals, nursing homes and similar establishments - beyond what was proposed by the agency. It was agreed to adopt the suggested change but reopen this section of WAC 16-228 to consider possible further changes or additions to the General Pesticide Rules. Changes include adding a definition of "responsible person," and modifying or deleting the definition of "fumigant" in WAC 16-228-1010.
