Kim and Nick and PCBA members, 

I have e-mailed Chris Elder at NCAGR to request additional information about the chemicals proposed and I've sent e-mails to a couple of contacts in NCSBA to request information from other beekeepers on the impact on honeybees and other pollinators.  

Tim Harris plans to attend the public hearing.

I'll try to update you as soon as additional info is available.

Hi Lynn do you know anything about the chemicals they will be spraying and what impact it has on our honey bee population? Does the state assoc know if this has been done in other counties and to what effect? 

Thanks so much for sharing. 

Kim and Nick

Subject Public hearing on proposed gypsy moth treatment

From Bob Torrence:   Because the hearing conflicts with Bee School, I would be interested to know if we can find someone from the club who could attend this to make sure we understand potential treatment options and timing as it pertains to protecting hives, and make sure we collectively have input to this. Thanks,  Bob 

PCBA members, please let me know if you plan to attend.   Thanks, Lynn
