Petition to Amend 2 VAC 5-685 to Create a New Certification Category
 

I concur with the two (2) tiered public health license for Category 8.  This change will result in having more technicians educated and trained throughout the state, thereby contributing, protecting and preserving our pollinators. The residents of Virginia deserve highly educated and well trained technicians to do so and this two tiered update will do just that through the efforts of the Virginia Pest Management Association and the National Pest Management Association.
