Bill > H4413

This bill aims to regulate the use of pesticides containing the herbicide substance Glyphosate in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It requires individuals to be appropriately licensed or authorized by the Department of Agriculture to use such pesticides, even for non-agricultural purposes. The bill also imposes conditions on the sale of these pesticides to the public, including verification of valid licenses or permits. It grants the Department the authority to register businesses that sell these pesticides and to revoke registrations if necessary. Finally, the bill allows the Pesticide Board Subcommittee to determine the classification of these pesticides as general use or restricted use, and to impose further limitations on their use.
