ARA Sent a Comment to EPA Regarding Proposed Changes to the Agricultural WPS
Aug 18 2014
ARA sent a comment to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to review the current Worker Protection Standards (WPS) and provide more target revisions rather than wholesale changes that are unworkable and costly for the agriculture industry. It is recommended that EPA develop an industry stakeholder advisory group that includes agricultural retailers, ground applicators, aerial applicators, pesticide manufacturers, farmers, and ranchers.
