New Jersey A3719 mandates the use of uniform silver flags for marking pesticide applications by commercial applicators.

New Jersey A3719 requires commercial pesticide applicators to use uniform silver flags to mark areas where pesticides have been applied. These flags must be a uniform size and type, provide information in both English and Spanish, and remain in place for at least 72 hours after application. The bill prohibits using silver flags for other purposes, such as marking invisible dog fences, underground utility lines, septic tanks, and underground piping, to avoid confusion. The Department of Environmental Protection is directed to create rules and regulations to implement these requirements.
