TO:       County Agricultural Commissioners

SUBJECT:  DRY RUN FOR METHYL BROMIDE FIELD FUMIGATION TRAINING
   

The Pesticide Enforcement Branch’s Regional Offices developed a field fumigation 
training package which will be used to train county staff during the first two 
weeks of January 2001.

We would like to get some input and feedback on this training to tailor it to 
meet county staff expectations.  Therefore, we have decided to invite county 
staff to a "dry run" training session to assist us in evaluating this training 
course. 

The "dry run" training session is scheduled, as follows:

       Date:      November 29, 2000

       Time:      9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. 

       Location:  California Department of Food and Agriculture 
                  4th Floor, Annex Building
                  1220 N Street, Room A447
                  Sacramento, California

The deadline for reservations for this "dry run" training is November 22, 2000.

We have reserved 30 seats for county staff on a first-come, first-served basis.  
If you, or an appropriate member of your staff, would like to participate in 
this training, please contact the Senior Pesticide Use Specialist serving your 
county to confirm your attendance.  Please note that the Department of Pesticide 
Regulation will not reimburse county staff travel expenses incurred for this 
"dry run" training session.

If you have any questions, please contact the Senior Pesticide Use Specialist 
serving your county.

Sincerely,
