IN'. PESTICIDES (continued): Yes \o BAIPs <br /> Alutng and Loading Actirities (continued): <br /> 51). _Are mix/load stations located where runoff will not carry _ C13a-b <br /> spilled chemicals into surface water bodies? _ <br /> 5'). Is there a system of portable mix/load stations or water only _ _ C 13b <br /> nurse tanks, and are they moved frequently? <br /> 7C 13 a-b <br /> 53). Is secondary containment provided to reduce contamination _ �— <br /> due to small spills? <br /> 54). Are jet-rinse nozzles or some other method used at your mix/load =i C13-14 <br /> sites to insure that used pesticide containers are properly rinsed? <br /> 55). Are triple rinsed containers punctured and stored properly '1 _ C14 <br /> (e. g., in a covered, locked shed) prior to disposal or recycling? <br /> 56). Are these containers then burned onsite in small batches (i.e., less 0 r C14, 18 <br /> than 500 lbs.) <br /> Integrated Pest Management: <br /> 57). Are a combination of control measures used targeting specific -0 C6 <br /> pests and diseases, including mechanical, cultural, biological, <br /> and chemical systems (i.e. Integrated Pest Management)? <br /> 58). Are precision application techniques, such as Global 0 0 C8 <br /> Positioning Systems, infrared imaging, or other advanced <br /> sensing devices used when applying crop protection products? <br /> 59). Is soil pH maintained at a level that reduces the solubility of free 0 0 C9 <br /> copper ions (which otherwise may be transported off-site), <br /> where this pH level will not hinder optimum crop production? <br /> 60). Are specific factors of both the target area, such as the soil type, 0 G C15 <br /> and the leaching and runoff potential of the pesticide to be applied <br /> considered when selecting a chemical for a specific pest? <br /> 6 <br />
