New Jersey S1118 mandates silver flags for marking pesticide applications, ensuring uniformity and multilingual information.
New Jersey S1118 requires commercial pesticide applicators to use uniform silver flags to mark areas where pesticides are 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 post-application. The bill also prohibits using silver flags for other purposes to avoid confusion, such as marking invisible dog fences or underground utilities. The Department of Environmental Protection is tasked with creating rules and regulations to implement these requirements.
