8 CCR 1203-2, pt. 13 - Notification of Pesticide Applications

13.01. Any commercial, registered limited commercial, or registered public applicator making a pesticide application in any turf or ornamental category shall post, at the time of application, at least one sign as specified in § 35-10-112(2)(c), C.R.S., notifying the public of the application.

13.02. The bottom of each notice-of-application sign must project at least 18 inches above the ground and the top of the sign shall be no higher than 48 inches above the ground. This provision does not apply to notice of application signs required to be posted at golf course clubhouses, which requirements are set forth in Part 13.04 below.

13.03. The sign must be posted on a lawn or yard at the property boundary between two feet and five feet from the sidewalk; if there is no sidewalk, between two and five feet from the road; or, if there is no road, between two and five feet from the property boundary. When landscaping or other conditions would make a sign inconspicuous or illegible if the sign were posted within the distances specified in this paragraph, the sign shall be posted in a similar manner such that it is conspicuous and easily legible to any adult or child entering or passing the property on foot.

13.04. For greenbelts, parks, golf courses, athletic fields, playgrounds, common property of multi-unit residential and commercial properties, or other similar recreational or common property, the signs must be posted immediately adjacent to areas within the property where pesticides have been applied in a manner that is conspicuous and easily legible to any adult or child entering the treated area(s). For applications on a golf course, the applicator shall post a sign at the clubhouse and at the first tee and the tenth tee notifying the public of the application. Notification signs at golf course clubhouses must be placed in a manner that is conspicuous and easily legible to any adult or child entering the treated area(s).

13.05. Any commercial, registered limited commercial, or registered public applicator making an aquatic pesticide application in any body of water with any legal public access shall post a sign notifying the public of the application at each place of legal public access.
