Register for EPA’s Webinar on Mitigation Measures to Protect Endangered Species from Pesticides.
The EPA will hold a public webinar on September 16, 2025, at 1:00 PM CST to provide information on the ecological runoff/erosion and spray drift mitigation measures that can be used to protect endangered species from pesticides. These measures are part of EPA’s online menu of mitigation measures pesticide users can choose from depending on their crop, region, agronomic practices, and the individual field to protect endangered species. The mitigation menu approach is intended to improve flexibility for pesticide users by providing options that work best for their situation, while still achieving an appropriate level of mitigation.
The purpose of the webinar is to help users better understand and use the mitigation menu webpage. The webinar will include:
The purpose of the webinar is to help users better understand and use the mitigation menu webpage. The webinar will include:
- An overview of the mitigation menu, including runoff/erosion and spray drift mitigation measures, and how pesticide users and growers can evaluate their fields for these mitigation measures.
- An explanation of how to navigate the mitigation menu webpage and available resources including the new Pesticide App for Label Mitigations (PALM).
- A demonstration of the available tools to calculate runoff/erosion mitigation points and spray drift buffers.
