An Agricultural Pesticide Collection and Disposal Event is being planned for late summer or early fall of 2022 for growers in San Joaquin County along with Amador, Calaveras, Sacramento, and Yolo counties. This event will only be for the collection and disposal of unwanted and legacy agricultural use pesticides. This is an amnesty event, and no regulatory action will be pursued because of your participation.
Please complete and submit the survey by May 31, 2022. This information obtained from the survey is necessary to gather an accurate cost estimate and bid from a hazardous material disposal company and for event planning purposes.. There are three ways you can complete and submit the form:
1. Electronic Submittal: Visit the survey website, https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/legacypesticides
2. Email: Complete a pdf version or scan a paper version and email it to: stocktonag2@sjgov.org
3. Mail: Print a completed paper version and mail it to:
San Joaquin Agricultural Commissioner’s Office
2101 E. Earhart Avenue, Suite 100
Stockton, CA 95206
This is a wonderful opportunity for San Joaquin growers because events like this seldom occur anywhere in California. Your participation in the survey is critical to help ensure the event will be well planned and scheduled so that agricultural pesticides that are no longer used can be properly disposed.
