Annual Integrated Pest Management Notification
In
accordance with State law (New Jersey School Integrated Pest Management
Act), South Brunswick School is required to annually notify all staff,
students and parents of the District policy.
Integrated
Pest Management is a holistic, preventative approach to managing pests.
As part of the District's pest management plan, the District may use
pesticides to control pests. The District posts a copy of its Pest
Management Policy; the date, time and place of any meeting, if one is
being held, for the purpose of adopting or modifying the Policy or Plan.
Finally, a list of pesticides that has been used during the past
calendar year, on any school property, appears below.
The
District has an IPM Coordinator, Todd Amiet, who maintains the
pesticide product labels and the Safety Data Sheets of each pesticide
product that may be used on school property. The label and the data
sheet are available for review by a parent, guardian, staff member or
student attending the school via www.sbschools.org
South
Brunswick School District may use pesticides to control pests. The
United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the New Jersey
Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) register pesticides to
determine that the use of a pesticide in accordance with instructions
printed on the label does not pose an unreasonable risk to human health
and the environment. Nevertheless, the EPA and the DEP cannot guarantee
that registered pesticides do not pose any risk to human health, thus
unnecessary exposure to pesticides should be avoided. The EPA has issued
the statement that, where possible, persons who are potentially
sensitive, such as pregnant women, infants and children, should avoid
unnecessary pesticide exposure.
Questions
regarding the District's IPM should be addressed to Mr. Amiet. He can
be reached at 4 Executive Drive, Monmouth Junction or by calling
(732)297-7800, Ext. 5109.
