Persons applying pesticides or fertilizer material by air, shall provide notice at least eight (8) hours prior to the planned application to a system identified by the Department. Content of the notice shall include at a minimum:
- Applicator’s name;
- Agricultural establishment’s name;
- Date and time of planned application;
- Location of the planned application identified by the district number and field name; and
- Identity of the product(s) being applied by trade name and EPA registration number as applicable.
