Enforcing agency. This chapter must be administered by the pesticide controlboard, hereinafter referred to as the &quot;board&quot;.4-35-04. Declaration of purpose. The legislative assembly hereby finds that pesticidesare valuable to our state's agricultural production and to the protection of man and the<br>environment from insects, rodents, weeds, and other forms of life which may be pests; but it is<br>essential to the public health and welfare that they be regulated to prevent adverse effects on<br>human life and the environment. The purpose of this chapter is to regulate, in the public interest,<br>the distribution, storage, transportation, disposal, and use and application of pesticides to control<br>pests as hereinafter defined. New pesticides are continually being discovered or synthesized<br>which are valuable for the control of pests, and for use as defoliants, desiccants, plant regulators,<br>and for related purposes. The dissemination of accurate scientific information as to the proper<br>use or nonuse of any pesticide is vital to the public health and welfare and the environment, both<br>immediate and future. Therefore, it is deemed necessary to provide for regulation of their use<br>and application.4-35-05. Definitions.
