Annual Pesticide Use Notification

Los Angeles Unified School District

Facilities Services Division

Public

The District has adopted an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) policy. This policy includes notifying parents/guardians and staff of pesticide use. During the school year, it may be necessary to apply pesticides at your child's school to avoid serious health problems posed by pests and/or maintain the integrity of a structure. However, should you feel that your child's or your (for school staff) health and/or behavior could be influenced by exposure to pesticide products, you are notified as follows:

An application of products on the Approved List may be applied during the school year (see attached list of pesticide products that have approved for use at District sites). Additional product information is available online at http://www.cdpr.ca.gov.
In the event the use of a product is required that is not on the Approved List, you will be notified 72 hours in advance (Exception: Emergency circumstances that warrant an immediate response)
Only authorized pest management staff may use pesticides on District property. pesticide applications (e.g., aerosol sprays) are allowed. District policy unauthorized staff from bringing or using a pesticide product at District sites.

School/Location

	Yes -I would like to be pre-notified every time a pesticide application is to take place at the school (i.e., in addition to annual notification of Approved Products). I understand that the notification will be sent home with my child, or provided to me as a school staff member, at least 72 hours before application.
	No - I do not need to be notified every time a pesticide application is to take place at the school. I understand that I will receive an annual notification in the Parent-Student Handbook or by other means (for school staff) of pesticides approved for use at schools.
