MINOR

This bill was updated to reflect a second Senate reading (SD2) with significant additions regarding funding and reporting requirements. The most substantive change is the addition of new appropriations to finance staff for education on new geospatial data rules and for processing expanded pesticide reports. The bill also clarifies that reporting must include the specific geographic area where restricted pesticides were applied, rather than just the county.

Scope change

The scope of reporting requirements was expanded to mandate geospatial data and specific application locations, and the bill now explicitly includes an appropriation for these new administrative tasks.

FISCAL

Added new Section 5 to appropriate funds for staffing related to geospatial data education and processing additional pesticide reports.

REQUIREMENT

Modified reporting requirements to include geospatial data and the specific area where pesticide applications occurred, rather than just the county.

TECHNICAL

Updated bill metadata including the author name, version number, and effective date to reflect the second Senate reading.
