On behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program (PESP), I congratulate Fischer Environmental Services Inc., on being selected as a 2004 PESP Champion. Fischer's PESP strategy for the 2003/2004 reporting cycle demonstrates outstanding achievement in promoting the reduction in the total amount of pesticides, rodenticides, fungicides and herbicides used per customer account while increasing efficacy.

We commend Fischer Environmental Services Inc. for using a multi-tiered approach including:

  • Reduction or elimination of all broadcast applications;
  • Use of targeted precise applications;
  • Targeting residential structures for environmental modification;
  • Increasing customer awareness of Integrated Pest Management concepts;
  • Increasing technician training in exclusionary practices;
  • Eliminating the use of any chemical with a higher than "caution!' label

. Again, please accept our congratulations on being recognized as a 2004 PESP Champion. The enclosed plaque is a token of our appreciation for all your efforts aimed at pesticide risk reduction.

 
Sincerely,

J. Stephan Morrill, Chief
Environmental Stewardship Branch
Biopesticides and Pollution Prevention Division
