The newly launched website, SprayDays California, is designed to alert Californians about the use of restricted material pesticides, detailing when, where, and what types will be sprayed, as well as their potential health impacts. The site aims to empower communities, especially given the long-standing push from activists for such notifications. Growers must submit notices of intent, and the information is updated online and through texts or emails before the spraying. The initiative demonstrates a step forward in pesticide regulation and community health safety in California.
"It's a remarkable day today. I think we are celebrating this victory... just achieving this one is a great victory for our communities to better protect the health of all residents throughout California."
"Really excited to launch it and to continue to hear and engage with the community as the system rolls out, and also use this as an opportunity to talk about how pesticides are regulated here in California."
