American Chemical Society Call for Papers
Call for Papers
258th ACS National Meeting & Exposition
August 25 - 29, 2019
San Diego, California, USA
Innovative Approaches to Managing the Interface Between Pesticide Use and Non-target Species Habitat Protection
Purpose of Symposium
Conservation actions and best management practices have been and are continuing to be installed and adopted that directly benefit species and provide numerous other environmental benefits, such as controlling soil erosion and protecting water bodies. Advances in technology have provided opportunities to develop innovative ways to identify sensitive areas needing protection, reduce unintended pesticide exposure, optimize land use and production, and implement activities that serve to minimize and avoid potential pesticide exposure to sensitive species and habitats. It is important for FIFRA and ESA decision makers and risk assessors to understand the current activities that are being implemented to protect sensitive species and their habitats. The purpose of this symposium is to explore the wide variety of ways that landowners, pesticide registrants and users, regulatory and wildlife management agencies, and conservation organizations use innovation and technology to protect sensitive species and enhance habitat.
Pesticide registrants, pesticide users, regulatory and wildlife management agency staff, and conservation-based organizations that attend the AGRO and ENVR sessions of the ACS meeting will have an interest in the program and should find it educational.
