Notwithstanding any other provision of this title, a person may not use or apply glyphosate or any product containing glyphosate except when authorized under subsection (b) of this section. The Commissioner may authorize the use or application of glyphosate on a determination that a threat exists that requires the use of glyphosate and no other pesticide or class of pesticide would be effective in addressing the threat. The Department of Recreation and Parks may engage in the limited use and application of glyphosate subject to a written Integrated Vegetation Management Plan that details:the locations of glyphosate use and application; the necessity for glyphosate use and application in those locations; and any preventive or mitigative measures undertaken to protect the health and safety of those within the vicinity of the glyphosate use and application. Any Intregrated Vegetation Management Plan that includes the use and application of glyphosate shall be submitted to the Commissioner prior to any use and application. Ord. 20-430
