Cal. Food & Agric. Code § 13185 — Healthy Schools Act of 2000 is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
(a) The department shall establish an integrated pest management training program in order to facilitate the adoption of a model IPM program and least-hazardous pest control practices by schoolsites. In establishing the IPM training program, the department shall do all of the following:
(1) Adopt a “train-the-trainer” approach, whenever feasible, to rapidly and broadly disseminate program information.
(2) Develop curricula and promote ongoing training efforts in cooperation with the University of California and the California State University.
(3) Prioritize outreach on a regional basis first and then to school districts. For outreach to child day care facilities, the department shall participate in existing trainings that provide opportunities for disseminating program information broadly on a regional basis.
(b) Nothing in this article shall preclude a schoolsite from adopting stricter pesticide use policies.
