Integrated Pest Management. The New Jersey School Integrated Pest Management Act of 2002 requires schools to implement a school integrated pest management policy. The law requires the Superintendent of the School District, for each school in the District, to implement Integrated Pest Management (IPM) procedures to control pests and minimize exposure of children, faculty and staff to pesticides. Upper Township School District shall therefore develop and maintain an IPM plan as part of the school’s policy.
Integrated Pest Management. The Building manages indoor pests in a way that protects human health and the surrounding environment. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) calls for using least-toxic chemical pesticides, minimum use of chemicals and using chemicals only in targeted locations and only for targeted species. Tenants have an important role in IPM. Generally, tenant are asked to keep their premises clean and to call Building management upon becoming aware of a pest issue.
Integrated Pest Management. 42. For purposes of this Agreement, IPM means, as described by EPA on its IPM Principles website, as of the Effective Date, “an effective and environmentally sensitive approach to pest management that relies on a combination of common-sense practices. IPM programs use current, comprehensive information on the life cycles of pests and their interaction with the environment. This information, in combination with available pest control methods, is used to manage pest damage by the most economical means, and with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment. … IPM takes advantage of all appropriate pest management options including, but not limited to, the judicious use of pesticides.”
Integrated Pest Management. Lessee shall comply with the GGNRA's Integrated Pest Management Policy which emphasizes preventive measures and permits use of chemicals and pesticides only as specifically authorized.
Integrated Pest Management. As defined at Section 482.021(15), Florida Statutes, as may be modified from time to time, the selection, integration, and implementation of multiple pest control techniques based on predictable economic, ecological, and sociological consequences, making maximum use of naturally occurring pest controls, such as weather, disease agents, and parasitoids, using various biological, physical, chemical, and habitat modification methods of control, and using artificial controls only as required to keep particular pests from surpassing intolerable population levels predetermined from an accurate assessment of the pest damage potential and the ecological, sociological, and economic cost of other control measures.
Integrated Pest Management. Shifts may start as early as 5 a.m.
Integrated Pest Management. The Authority shall ensure that all pesticide applicators provide a pest management program that abides by federal and provincial legislation, and that incorporates integrated pest management principles and practices to reduce the use of broad-spectrum pesticides. The goal of is to manage pests effectively, safety and economically, by (a) reducing the use of broad-spectrum pesticides, and using more specific control products; reducing the level of toxicity of products used, and avoiding products officially known or suspected of being human carcinogens; using alternate control methods; and improving and perfecting application methods. is an approach to pest management that integrates all pest management practices and control methods into one pest management program. does not usually try to eliminate all pests, but tries to reduce the pest population to an acceptable level. In the use of pesticides is advocated as a last resort only. involves identifying pests, determining the cause and source of the pest, knowing the pest's life cycle, behaviour effects on its host, and the most vulnerable period in its life cycle; and monitoring pest activities and the effectiveness of control or management methods. requires knowing and using available methods, such as (a) approved biological controls including parasitic and predatory insects and host-specific pathogens; maximizing a plant's health and minimizing its susceptibility to pest infestations by crop rotation, moisture control, planting techniques, and sanitation; genetic selection, i.e., choosing resistant species and varieties of plants; mechanical controls, e.g. trapping, cultivating, physical barriers; (e) the use of pesticides which are of relatively low toxicity to human and animal populations, and of low persistency in the environment; e.g., insecticidal soaps; the use of conventional pesticides in a prescribed manner.
Integrated Pest Management. The university uses integrated pest management practices. STATUS REPORTING Rutgers University will submit a Status Report to EPA two times a year starting six months after the official signing of this MOU. The report will include an update on the various activities identified in the agreement. EPA will use this data to determine the environmental benefits associated with Rutgers University’s “green” activities.
Integrated Pest Management. Plant material (turf, shrubs, trees) will be regularly monitored for the onset of pest problems, in accordance with practices consistent with an Integrated Pest Management approach. All efforts will be made to ensure that the environment in which the plant material is growing is appropriate. When pest problems are detected, the extent of the infestation will be evaluated and an appropriate plan of action developed. This plan may include the use of pesticides, but only after all other avenues have been investigated. If pesticides are required, products with limited toxicity such as horticultural oils and ‘biologicals’ will be chosen over more toxic alternatives.
Integrated Pest Management. Landscaper shall implement an integrated pest management (“IPM”) system that emphasizes regular monitoring to determine if and when treatments are needed, and employs physical, mechanical, cultural and biological tactics to keep pest numbers low enough to prevent intolerable damage or annoyance. Least-toxic chemical controls are used as a last option. IPM steps include: (a.) prevention first (plan cultural practices to minimize pests – e.g., watering, mulching, pruning); (b.) identify/know the pest life cycle; (c.) set action thresholds-tolerate some damage; (d.) monitor regularly; (e.) when pests exceed thresholds, use control method with least non- target impact (as a last resort, use spot applications of least toxic chemicals), and only treat when the pest is most vulnerable; (f.) keep records of control methods; and (f.) replace problem plants/designs with more resistant varieties. During the term of this Agreement, new grasses and plantings, as shown on the Plan, shall be monitored at weekly intervals during the spring for soil moisture conditions, pest infestation and symptoms of stress as follows:
