LD356

Maine LD356 requires written notification to neighbors before outdoor pesticide application within 500 feet of another's property.

Maine LD356 mandates that individuals must provide written notification to the owner, lessee, or legal occupant of a property at least days before applying pesticides outdoors within 500 feet of their property. This requirement does not apply to aerial pesticide applications. The bill also prohibits handling, transporting, storing, displaying, or distributing pesticides in a manner that endangers pets and bans disposing of, discarding, or storing pesticides in a way that may harm pets. The legislation aims to safeguard the health and welfare of Maine residents.
