Description
Senate File 2211 (Pesticide Drift Online Reporting) requires the Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship (DALS) to establish and administer a pesticide drift electronic case management system accessible through the Department’s Internet site. The system is required to allow access to documents regarding complaints alleging pesticide drift damages. The system would keep records of complaints filed on or after January 1, 2021.
Background
The Bill defines drift as “the movement of a pesticide during or immediately after application through the air to a site other than the intended site of application.” The Pesticide Bureau within the DALS currently administers pesticide drift complaints through phone or email. Persons claiming damages due to pesticide drift may file a complaint for an investigation under Iowa Code section 206.14. Under Iowa Code section 206.11, the DALS may suspend or revoke applicator licenses as well as collect civil penalties for violations. Iowa Code section 206.19 provides a civil penalty for a commercial applicator of up to $500 per offense. The table below lists pesticide incidents involving filed complaints.
Assumptions
The DALS will use external vendors to implement the electronic case management system.
Fiscal Impact
Senate File 2211 is estimated to cost the DALS between $421,000 and $511,000 to implement the system including the site build, training, support, and an annual site license.Crop Year 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Cases 120 122 89 108 105 178
