SB351 improves reporting requirements for restricted use pesticides in Hawaii to better protect public health and the environment.

SB351 aims to enhance the reporting of restricted use pesticides in Hawaii by requiring users to submit quarterly reports instead of annual reports. These reports must include detailed geospatial data, the amount of product and chemicals applied, and other specific information. The Department of Agriculture will develop an online reporting tool and produce public summaries by county. This bill seeks to provide policymakers and public health experts with comprehensive data to make informed decisions about pesticide use and its impacts.
