HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 12082015 - C.29RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Agricultural Commissioner, or designee, to execute a contract with the California
Agricultural Commissioners and Sealers Association (CACASA) to reimburse the Count an amount not to exceed
$6,372 for non-mandated pesticide use reporting activities for the period of July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Agricultural Department will be reimbursed in an amount not to exceed $6372 for activities related to pesticide
use reporting. There is no county match of funds.
BACKGROUND:
The California Department of Pesticide Regulations no longer offers individual data submission contracts to counties
and has contracted with CACASA to provide the data storage, software and data communication infrastructure for the
reporting of pesticide use data. CACASA has simplified the overall process of the stat submission contracts and is
providing the online program support to maintain the enhanced reporting capabilities. In order to ease the transition
from county personnel inputting the data to the user of the pesticide inputting the data, CACASA is providing funding
to counties during the transition period, in return for county agricultural commissioners' efforts to provide on-going
data input and training to submitters of data to use the new online submission program.
