1 14 This bill amends Code section 206.5, providing for the
1 15 certification of pesticide applicators, including commercial,
1 16 public, and private applicators. To be initially certified as
1 17 a commercial, public, or private applicator, a person must
1 18 complete an educational program that consists of passing an
1 19 examination. After initial certification, the commercial,
1 20 public, or private applicator must renew the certification by
1 21 again completing the educational program. For renewal, the
1 22 educational program consists of either an examination or
1 23 continuing instructional courses. The commercial, public, or
1 24 private applicator must pass the examination each third year
1 25 following initial certification or may elect to attend two
1 26 hours of continuing instructional courses each year.
1 27 The bill provides if a person is certified as a private
1 28 applicator of pesticides on the effective date of the bill and
1 29 would otherwise be required to complete an educational program
1 30 on or before June 30, 2003, in order to renew the
1 31 certification, the person may complete the educational program
1 32 at any time up to the one-year anniversary of the date that
1 33 the person would have been required to complete the
1 34 educational program, notwithstanding Code section 206.5.
1 35 The bill takes effect upon enactment.
