Project will help farms across NC implement stringent risk mitigation measures (RMMs) required by the EPA beginning in 2010. At least 25 workshops will be held to train individuals on risk mitigation measures, including development of a Fumigant Management Plan and requirements for buffer zones. Required medical clearance for respirator use, respirator fit testing, and a full face respirator will also be provided at a reduced cost.
