Bill Summary
An act to amend Section 12978.7 of the Food and Agricultural Code, relating to pesticides.
AI Summary
This bill, the California Ecosystems Protection Act of 2020, would prohibit the use of any second generation anticoagulant rodenticides (SGARs) in California until the Director of Pesticide Regulation certifies that the Department has completed a reevaluation of SGARs and adopted additional restrictions to ensure their continued use does not significantly harm non-target wildlife. The bill expands an existing exemption for agricultural activities and allows limited use of SGARs for public health, vector control, invasive species eradication on offshore islands, and research purposes related to the reevaluation. The bill also imposes state-mandated local program costs and provides for reimbursement procedures.
