DEC Special Permit Training (Wayne County - English session)
April 9, 2013
8:30 am registration; 9:00 am - 12:00 pm training
Newark, NY
At Special Permit trainings, we review with non-certified applicators Worker Protection Safety (WPS) handler training and for each federally restricted-use pesticide the potential hazards to non-target species and the environment, and how to prevent the risk of exposure. Trainees also receive a packet with summaries of this information. A DEC Special Permit is valid for one year and needs to be renewed every year unless the pesticide applicator becomes certified.
