The goal of the Indiana Pesticide Management Plan
(PMP) is to provide a mechanism to protect the quality of our ground water
resource.
It is the intent of the PMP to outline various prevention, response and
enforcement mechanisms available under the authorities of the Indiana Pesticide
Registration Law and the Indiana Pesticide Use and Application Law.
The underlying goal of the PMP is founded on protecting ground water resources
which currently meet criteria for human health protection.
This can be accomplished through a progression of coordinated steps:
Education
Voluntary Best
Management Practices (BMP's)
Necessary
regulatory management approaches
Restrictions on
pesticide product use where needed
