Buffer Zones
• The specific buffer zone will depend on the species and the applicable habitat described in the injunction

Identification of Habitat
• The applicator must make identification of the endangered species and/or their habitat
within the shaded area on a web based mapper to determine if the address or
location has specific pesticide use restrictions
![Page 11: Impact on PMP’s - ASPCRO · Impact on PMP’s Darren Van Steenwyk . Final Injunction can be found at: ... •Indoor uses of pesticides •Homeowner applications to household potted](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041920/5e6b726ef6500507dc31788a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

When a specific grid or area is clicked on, it will become highlighted and
identify which species is in that area. • The map will also show which products are
affected in that highlighted area
![Page 13: Impact on PMP’s - ASPCRO · Impact on PMP’s Darren Van Steenwyk . Final Injunction can be found at: ... •Indoor uses of pesticides •Homeowner applications to household potted](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041920/5e6b726ef6500507dc31788a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
This link will provide more information on the restrictions within that habitat
and provide a printable map of this
shaded area on the screen
![Page 14: Impact on PMP’s - ASPCRO · Impact on PMP’s Darren Van Steenwyk . Final Injunction can be found at: ... •Indoor uses of pesticides •Homeowner applications to household potted](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041920/5e6b726ef6500507dc31788a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This will show what the applicable habitats are and what the buffer zones will be with which active
ingredient
![Page 15: Impact on PMP’s - ASPCRO · Impact on PMP’s Darren Van Steenwyk . Final Injunction can be found at: ... •Indoor uses of pesticides •Homeowner applications to household potted](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041920/5e6b726ef6500507dc31788a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The buffer zones are limited to the areas around the applicable
habitat within the borders of the shaded blocks on the map
![Page 16: Impact on PMP’s - ASPCRO · Impact on PMP’s Darren Van Steenwyk . Final Injunction can be found at: ... •Indoor uses of pesticides •Homeowner applications to household potted](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041920/5e6b726ef6500507dc31788a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Not all grids/shapes have the same restrictions, even next to each other. It depends on the species identified in each shaded area

Mapper System
• Good if at computer; in field too complicated
– Need to translate info to tech before they get to account
– Can be complicated if not familiar with it
• But may need to do field evaluation by tech to determine if habitat is present

Lesson:
So many if’s, and’s, but’s
Causes confusion as to where/when a product can be used
![Page 25: Impact on PMP’s - ASPCRO · Impact on PMP’s Darren Van Steenwyk . Final Injunction can be found at: ... •Indoor uses of pesticides •Homeowner applications to household potted](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041920/5e6b726ef6500507dc31788a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Result:
If comply, then change/avoid products
![Page 26: Impact on PMP’s - ASPCRO · Impact on PMP’s Darren Van Steenwyk . Final Injunction can be found at: ... •Indoor uses of pesticides •Homeowner applications to household potted](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041920/5e6b726ef6500507dc31788a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Result:
May have competitive disadvantage if not all PMP’s comply

Enforcement
• Still confusing to PMP’s as to who is responsible
• Local enforcement doesn’t know much about this
• Future of enforcement???
