The Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) attempts compliancy of the Endangered Species Act's court mandates by updating their Bulletins Live! Two system. Updated pesticide labels now require applicators to check Bulletins Live! Two within six months of application. In addition, Runoff/Erosion Mitigation and Spray Drift Buffer Reduction calculations are available through EPA's web-based Pesticide App for Label Mitigations (PALM) app. These limitations avoid blanket pesticide restrictions.
This hands-on training consists of a 50-minute educational session on Bulletins Live! Two and mitigation points, followed by personalized, one-on-one training on how to use the Bulletins Live! Two website for updated bulletins and the PALM app for runoff/erosion and spray drift buffer reduction mitigation calculations. Participants will work directly with an educator to review their specific pesticide labels to download their printable bulletins and mitigation calculations for their 2026 pesticide bookkeeping.
Check-in for the program is 30 minutes prior to the listed time. Presentation followed by hands-on training.
