Introduced in the House on October 9, 2003, to require schools and day centers to provide parents and guardians with an annual notice regarding pesticide use, and to provide 48 hours advance notice of any pesticide application. Notice would be given by posting a notice in a public area of the school or via electronic mail, telephone call or sending a notice home with students. The notice must include the location of the application, the name of the pesticide and a toll free number for pesticide information. These notification requirements would not apply if a pesticide is applied to protect individuals from an imminent threat from harmful insects (such as a swarming bees)
