PLANET's Government Affairs department seeks to identify public policy issues important to the industry and to develop consensus positions on these issues.
Areas of interest include posting, notification (including local neighbor notification as passed in New York), transportation, labor, disposal, storage and the large area called “use” which includes pesticide and fertilizer applications. Also included are the new issues of the “Precautionary Principle” and “Cosmetic, Aesthetic or Non-Essential Pesticide Use”. The government affairs department also works with many different industry coalitions and groups like RISE to reach many of its goals. PLANET has an active Government Affairs Committee which helps direct PLANET’s Government Affairs activities.
