FAX (612) 937-5739 MEMORANDUM TO: Park and Recreation Commission ~ FROM: Todd Hoffman, Park and Recreation Coordinator DATE: July 22, 1992 SUBJ: Mosquito Control in Lake Ann and Lake Susan Parks This item was reviewed by the commission on June 23, 1992. Official action taken that evening was to table this item for further review on July 28, 1992. On the evening of June 23, the commission heard from representatives of the Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (MMCD); Eric Rivkin, resident of Chanhassen; Harold Trende, Carver County Commissioner; AI Klingelhutz, Carver County Commissioner; and other members of the audience. Information disseminated that evening was extensive, touching on many issues surrounding mosquito control and the activities of the MMCD. It is important for the commission to understand that they have not been asked to judge all activities of the MMCD. The only conclusion that needs to be reached is whether mosquito control activities should be carried out in city parks. MMCD has indicated, by designation on a city base map, that Lake Ann and Lake Susan Parks are the only two parks in Chanhassen in which they have carried out control activities. As such, discussion is centered on these locations. However, any recommendations made should be applicable to all city park properties. NEW INFORMATION A myriad of additional publications and news articles relating to mosquito control were received at commission meeting on June 23, with more being received since that time. A news article which appeared on the front page of the Star Tribune on Monday, July 13 is also attached for your review.

Letter from Sandra Ives, Board of Animal Health, State of Minnesota, dated June 30, 1992 e e e e Park and Recreation Commission July 22, 1992 Page 3 FAILURE TO NOTIFY CITY OF TREATMENT e Over the past six to eight months, many discussions, in person and over the phone, with Ross Green and other employees of the MMCD have heightened the awareness of mosquito control concerns in Chanhassen. Throughout these discussions, a clear understanding by all parties as to the top priority before treatment was carried out was reached. This priority was that the City of Chanhassen through either myself or the Park and Recreation Department would be notified prior to any treatment being completed. This agreement was confIrmed in Mr. Green's presentation to the commission on June 23 (page 29 of the June 23 minutes, 7th paragraph; and again on page 61, 11 th and 13th paragraphs). During the week of July 13, 1992, the MMCD did treat Lake Ann Park with the chemical punt without notifying the city. In a phone conversation with Mr. Ernie Weimerskirchen, Scott and Carver County Supervisor, on July 20, 1992, Mr. Weimerskirchen stated that Mr. Ross Green, Public Information Coordinator for the MMCD had informed the Scott and Carver County crew that the aedes triseriatus mosquito level in Lake Ann Park was high, and that treatment should occur. Mr. Weimerskirchen said that this treatment occurred on either June 13 or 14. I called Ross Green yesterday (July 21) to inquire whether his understanding of the failure of notification was the same as mine. Mr. Green stated that the problem was internal, acknowledged that notifIcation was not given to the city, and contrary to Mr. Weimerskirchen's statements, stated that as Information OffIcer he did not give direct authorization for treatment. Mr. Green also discussed the possibility that there may have been confusion in that this treatment was targeting the aedes triseriatus mosquito, not the nuisance mosquito; but he also confIrmed that this is irrelevant as the treatment methods and chemicals used are the same in either case. RECOMMENDATION It is widely recognizable that the issues and information surrounding mosquito control are complex. However, there are no expectations being placed on the commission to ~ome mosquito control "experts." Such expectations would be unreasonable. However, the Park and Recreation Commission is the goveming body which makes recommendations to the City Council on all issues relating to the operations of the city parks. These recommendations include what capital improvements to pursue, specifIc ordinances and rules to be enacted, etc., and now whether mosquito control activities should take place in parks. I have elected to provide the commission a staff recommendation which provides options for the commission to choose from or disregard in favor of a different recommendation. In Regard to Larval Control Briauettes Option 1: Eliminate their use. Option 2: Allow their use to continue providing notification of the treatment areas and times are provided. e Park and Recreation Commission July 22, 1992 Page 4 In Regard to Adult MOSQuito Control Chemicals (Cold Fogging) Option 1: Eliminate their use. Option 2: Eliminate their use for a one year probationary period (the remainder of 1992 and 1993), re-evaluating the control program in the fall of 1993. Option 3: Allow their use to continue, providing notification of the treatment areas and times are provided. In Regard to the Landing, Take-off, and Loading of an MMCD HeliCOPter or the Mixing of High Volumes of Control Chemicals at Lake Ann Park or other City Parks It is recommended that this practice be prohibited.

In a sense, Thou~h at times it may be hard to believe, not all these are the things that make a mosquito a those dIfferent species live in your neighborhood. In mosquito. fact, o~ly about 50 can be found in the metro area, Well over 3,400 different species exist worldwide, and MMCD is concerned with only about 15 of a with more discovered every year. Each species lays those. Only the species that transmit disease or are . its eggs only in very specific locations: some on the significant human biters are targeted by MMCD. Who We Are And What We Do MMCD was established by the State Legislature in 1958 to control mosquitoes and that is still our primary task. The emp-hasis of the program is on larval control, controlling mosquitoes before they fly from the water as adults. Two environmentally safe biological control materials are used for this. Methoprene is a mimic of a juvenile insect growth hormone. Its presence in breeding site water, even in minute amounts, "confuses" the mosquito larvae and keeps them from ever becoming adults. Bacillus thuriengensis israelensis (Bti), is a naturally occurring soil bacteria that kills mosquito larvae when they feed on it. At the height of the mosquito season, MMCD also does some spraying for adults using permethrin and resmethrinhwhich are related to an Mrican flower extract wit insecticidal properties. MMCD was asked to control black flies in 1984. These biting gnats breed in flowing water. As ppllution in the metro area's streams and rivers has slowly been cleaned up-, the black fly populations have been expanding. A.s with mosquitoes, control efforts are directed at the larvae in the water. Bti, the same soil bacteria used a~st mosquitoes, is used to control black flies. MMCD has s~nt a lot of time and money in a DNR mandated study to define any environmental impacts of this control. MMCD was re~ested by the ~gislature in 1989 to begin work on ~e disease. The first step was to determine the distribution across the metro area of the deer tick that transmits this disease. MMCD is now working with the University of Minnesota to determine the local range and prevalence of the . disease causin~ bacteria carried by the tick. With this information the Minnesota Dej>artment of Health will then be able to rank the Lyme disease risk throughout the metro area. And Something You Can Do a Aedes triseriatus is the mosquito responsible for eI!gaged in the cleanup and disPQsal of waste tires. . transmitting LaCrosse encephalitis, a serious Removing and properly dis osing of any viral disease in children. Old aiscarded tires, tin discarded tires, cans, and otIher artificial cans, and any other refuse capable of holding small breeding sites in your neighborhood, is an amounts of water, are major breedin~ sites of this effective way you can help limit the numbers mosquito. For that reason1 MMCD and the of this potentially dangerous mosquito. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency are actively When You See Us In The Field.... As a government agency charged with controlling mosquitoes, MMCD has an obligation to do so as efficIently, effectively, and safely as possible. Deciding how to use limited resources to best accom:plish this is one of the most difficult asj>ects of the Job. Available time, personnel, and funds are not sufficient to treat the nearly 60,000 metro area mosquito breeding sites every time it rains. Therefore, to always insure optimal use of resources, we rank the mosquito productivity of breeding sites and treat the most productive ones first. We also use a timed-release technology that allows us to treat many of them only once a year Early in the spring, field personnel apply methoprene briquets to breeding sites of three acres or less. These briquets last all season, releasing methoprene into tbe water whenever the sites are wet. A site must be able to retain water for a week or two after a rain to give the mosquito larvae enough time to develop once the eggs hatch. After heavy rains in the spring and summer, helicopters treat breeding sites larger than 3 acres. They spread ground up corncobs that have been coated with Bti. It must be reapplied soon after every rain of an inch or more, the amount of rainfall needed to hatch another brood of eggs. Methoprene pellets are also being applied by helicopter this year on a trial basis. These pellets can be applied before the rain rather than only in the few days after it, which is an advantage. If large numbers of mosquitoes do emerge from breeding sites, limited spraying for mosquitoes flying in and around park and recreation areas may take place. Park and recreation staffs work with MMCD to determine when and where these treatments are appropriate. When j>ossible . they are timed to precede holidays, special events,. or community festivals. . Permethrm is sprayed along the edges of woods and other vegetation in the parks; under ideal conditions its control effects can last up to 2 weeks. Mosquitoes come into contact with it when they begin to move out of the vegetation. Notices are posted at the entrances or along the perimeters while field personnel are working In a park. Spraying in the parks is done with small baclt pack or hand held units during the day. Mter dark, resmethrin may be sprayed from truck mounted coldfoggers in areas around the parks. It has no residual effects; the mosquitoes are killed only when they come into contact with the resmethrin fog. Call 491.2850 anytime for information detailing when and where this coldfogging will be taking place. Black fir" treatments are made throughout the summer i stream and river levels remain high enough to produce larvae. To monitor this, field personnel do extensive larval samplin~ in area streams and rivers, making treatments WIth liquid Bti when necessary. They are also studying the effects of the treatments on nontarget organisms. Quality assurance personnel monitor all these operations. Through frequent field inspections, they make sure that correct operational procedures are followed and all materials are properly applied and are performing according to specificatIons. Thisa helps guarantee the most effiCIent, cost effective,. and environmentally safe control possible.

Heller Bulk Rate U.S. Postage PAID St. Paul, MN Permit No. 6809 RECEIVED e e e METROPOLITAN MOSOUITO CONTROL DISTRICT PROGRAM ACTIVITIES. 1992 PROGRAM: Floodwater Aedes Mosauito Control Summary: The floodwater Aedes mosquito control program suppresses long lived spring snow melt and rain Aedes species and the prominent summer pest mosquito, Aedes vexans, to reduce annoyance from these mosquitoes. Emphasis is on control of mosquito larvae. Localized adult mosquito control is conducted to reduce mosquito annoyance for public events on request Western Equine Encephalitis mosquito, Culex tarsalis, levels and horse encephalitis cases are monitored to assess disease transmission risk and need for control measures. Goals: 1. To rank and apply control treatments to mosquito breeding sites producing the greatest number of mosquitoes. 2. To conduct adult mosquito control treatments for public events upon request To begin the exploration of target specific means of controlling adult mosquitoes, such as the use of attractants to aggregate mosquitoes for localized control Activity: Larval control will continue mainly with Altosid briquets and Bti granules. Evaluations of more cost effective formulations will continue including Altosid liquid, Altosid pellets, Altosid sand granules. Adult control will use permethrin and resmethrin products. The A edes program will operate similar to 1991. There will be continued emphasis on achieving larval control on the most productive sites in the MMCD, (i.e. reach the borders with larval control). This requires improved control strategies and associated data bases to achieve the greatest possible control of Aedes mosquitoes in the metropolitan region. Approaches being considered include: . Use of higher thresholds in the core area or higher thresholds in the core and even higher in the outer area. We need to develop a dynamic system for establishing treatment thresholds throughout the season to reflect changes in site characteristics. · Reduce the total area of the sites being treated. If the lowest portion of a mosquito breeding site does not breed up to the threshold level, then there is no reason to treat the portion of the site which is not breeding. Investigations will begin on low tech ways to use adult mosquito attractant principles in the field program operations. Work is continuing on the geographical information system to integrate mosquito and breeding site data from District records with cartographic data available for wetlands and other areas. PROGRAM: Cattail Mosquito Summary: The Cattail Program controls the District's most aggressive biting mosquito Coquillettida penwbans, which develops in cattail marshes throughout the District Coq. pertW'bans mosquitoes develop over a twelve month period and become adult mosquitoes duri..ng the months of June and July. Goals: . 1. To provide control of the most productive breeding sites areas near population centers, due to the 3-5 mile flight range of the mosquito. 2. To evaluate alternative control formulations are underway to determine the most cost effective approach. 3. To continue water level management studies to assess the impact of the 1987-89 drought and draw down and of habitat return for this species. Activity: , Returning water levels in marshes throughout the metro region increased the breeding grounds for this mosquito in 1991. The program inspects all potential cattail breeding sites in the area served by the Aedes program and treats sites supporting significant larval populations of Coq. perturbans mosquitoes. Crews inspect possible cattail marshes from mid-August to the end of November. Control applications are made from mid-February through May to sites found breeding in surveys the previous Fall. During the summer months (June-August), the program monitors efficacy of treatments and Coq. perturbans populations within the District PROGRAJ\.f: LaCrosse Encephalitis Prevention Summary: The LaCrosse Encephalitis Prevention Program is directed at reducing the number of human cases of LaCrosse encephalitis within the District Goals: 1. To rank the relative risk of LaCrosse encephalitis across the District 2. To achieve effective control of the LaCrosse vector Aedes triseriatus, through public information and removal of breeding sites. 3. To conduct an effective Aedes albopictus (tiger mosquito) surveillance program. Activity: The program will continue to assess the risk of LaCrosse encephalitis by sampling wooded areas across the District with a focused concentration in southern Hennepin County. All past LaCrosse a encephalitis case location areas will continue to be monitored. .. An extensive public education program, designed to lower disease risk by increasing public awareness to the disease and its prevention, will continue to be emphasized. The program will continue to work closely with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to stimulate clean-up of waste tire piles found in the District Waste tire piles provide breeding areas for both Ae.triseriarus and Ae. albopictus. Surveillance for the Asian tiger mosquito (Ae. albopictus) will continue, as will efforts to make sure the mosquito has been eliminated at the Scott County tire site (Savage) where they were found in 1991. This was the :fIrst record of Ae. albopictus in Minnesota. PROGRAJ\.f: Lyme Tick Surveillance Summary: The Lyme Tick Surveillance Program conducts field monitoring work to determine the distribution of the deer tick and the bacterial causal agent of Lyme disease within the seven county metropolitan area. Goals: 1. To map the distribution and relative abundance .of deer ticks (Ixodes dammilU) within the District 2. To map the distribution of the disease agent (Borrelia burgdorfen) within the District 3. To document changes in deer tick and Borrelia distribution. e e e e e Activity: In 1992 the program will continue to determine the range and any changes in distribution of deer ticks in the District As in 1990 and 1991, field work will include a survey of deer ticks' small mammal hosts (white-footed mice). The program may conduct limited drag cloth sampling (to catch host-seeking deer ticks), and examine road-killed mammallO for deer ticks. The program will also continue to investigate the distribution and prevalence of the Lyme disease agent (Borrelia burgdoifen). All nymph and adult deer ticks collected will be analyzed for the spirochetes. In addition, the program will be making arrangements to test many of the mice collected for the spirochetes. PROGRAM: Black Fly Prowam Summary: The black fly or biting gnat control program suppresses biting gnats which develop in rivers and streams around the metro area. Monitoring and treatment of stretches of the rivers with the selective control material Bri, an EPA registered soil bacteria. Intensive environmental impact studies compose half of the cost of the program. Goals: 1. To monitor larval and adult biting gnat species in and adjacent to the metro area. To conelate immature population thresholds whi~h reflect the need for control treatments. 2. To control biting gnat species that breed in small streams in the spring. To control repeated gnats broods which develop every 10 to 14 days in large rivers in the metro area from May through September. 3. To complete the 5th year of environmental impact studies in the Mississippi River, and the third year of studies to determine the treatment effects of Bd on secondary insect production. A study of the toxicity of Bti to mussels has been contracted with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Activity: In 1990 a three year small stream plan was developed in collaboration with the MDNR. This plan is detailed in the 1990 permit Bri treatments will be made for control of Simuliwn venurtum during April and early May. Breeding site survey work will be done in March and April. In 1990, a three year plan for the large river non-target studies was developed with the MDNR. This plan is detailed in the 1990 permit application. Bd will be applied to the known breeding sites on the large rivers as needed in 1992. The larval treatment thresholds that were established a priori in 1990 will be reviewed this winter and revised if necessa.ry. The third ~d final year of the three year expanded non-target impact study on the Mississippi River will continue in 1992. The operational feasibility of spot treating snag and grassy habitats on the Minnesota River will be evaluated using reduced Bd dosages. A operational boat-based slurry system for applying Bd in the Minnesota River will be developed to achieve better Bd mixing with the river to improve downstream carry and control. PROGRAM: Duality Assurance Summary: The Quality Assurance Program establishes standards, tolerances of quality and monitors the quality of field control applications in the Aedes, Cattail, Black Fly, and LaCrosse-Lyme Programs. Goals: 1. To assess field control material and application effectiveness. 2. Monitor control materials for percentage of active ingredient at manufacture and after long term field exposure. 3. Develop QA methodology for the Cattail, Black Fly, and LaCrosse-Lyme programs. 4. To coordinate the revision of section map standards and the review of section maps that are updated in the fall/winter. Activity: The program will continue to assess the effectiveness of field control materials and applications. This is achieved by training staff in QA principles, developing measurements of quality, establishing standards and tolerances of quality, and recommending methods to improve quality. Methodology is developed for in-house measurement against standards and continuous improvement toward achieving program goals. To date, briquet and granule application quality measurements, standards, and tolerances have been developed. e PROGRAM: Pro~ram Development Summary: The District is committed to data based decision making. Where published scientific literature does not exist, and information is needed to make operational decisions which have significant cost ramifications, Program Development staff conduct studies to cbta1, u'lc jh~a.7 research data to make field program decisions. Goals: 1. To provide basic information needed to improve the effectiveness of the Aedes control program. 2. To develop baseline information needed to associate public perception studies of mosquito annoyance with measurements of mosquito numbers. 3. To develop methods and tools to suppon operating division treatment decisions for specific floodwater Aedes mosquito breeding sites. Activity: e Improve understanding of factors contributing to mosquito annoyance (e.g., duration of exposure, time of day, number of days) to refine District goals. Work this year will begin small-scale interview or survey projects to test approaches, with concurrent mosquito sampling, and will continue in the following year as needed. Publication will be completed on previous related work. Continue development of adult mosquito sampling methods that measure how well the District is meeting its goals. Evaluate trap designs, trap locations, and geostatistical analysis of trap results. Finish biological modeling projects and present forreview1i.nd-publication. USCTesults to test possible control strategies (in conjunction with Director, Aedes Program Manager, Control Strategies Committee, and other staff). Determine information needs on environmental factors (temperature, rainfall, water depth) to support strategic decisions. Improve field larval forecasting model and update division staff on use. Discuss other decision support needs with field personnel for future work. Continue evaluation of larval and egg sampling methods and appropriate uses for sampling information. PROGRAJ\f: Lon~.term Studies!SPRP Summary: The Commission resolved to allocate the statutory amount of 2.5% of the District's annual budget to conduct studies to assess the environmental impact of control materials used by the MMCD. Since 1986, this work is directed by an independent Scientific Peer Review Panel of scientists, and conducted under external research contracts, assisted part time by an administrator. e e e e Goals: 1. To identify impacts of the District control program on invertebrate aquatic organisms via studies began in 1987. Activity: The Scientific Peer Review Panel (SPRP) anticipates completing an interim report on the studies completed to date by late fall of 1992. This report will be forwarded to the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board for their review. Ongoing studies will be conducted as need for same is determined by the SPRP. PROGRAM: Administration Summary: The District administration serves the Commission by recommending program directio~ and suggesting policy alternatives. Once the Board sets program direction, administration works with each Program Leader to establish goals and annual objectives. Employee participation leading to group consensus is emphasized. Administrative role is that of inquiry to understand staff recommendations, reaching agreement on direction, and serving line staff by facilitating operating program to maximize program effectiveness. Goals: 1. To provide Commission administrative support and follow through to accomplish the Board policy and program objectives. 2. To identify and implement immediate and long range goals with staff program leadership to achieve the program mission. 3. To provide logistic support to field staff responsible for accomplishing program goals. 4. To disseminate program information to the public through the media, public presentations and classroom presentations. 5. To maintain internal controls on fmancing procedures, integrate legislated Targeted Group Businesses purchasing requirements, and ensure that contractors have approved AffIrmative Action programs. To continue focus on compliance with the Affirmative Action goals and related personnel matters. Activity: With the increasing amount of information necessary to guide MMCD operations, an on-line management information system will provide timely information for decision making. The Data Processing Manager will work with staff to design a system to provide the information needed for cost effective operations. The Capital Improvement Plan will continue to be a major focus in 1992. Staff will provide necessary input during the construction of the new facilities. The major effort will involve completion of the headquarters facility by late 1992, the completion of the Anoka field headquarters, and project design and planning for construction of the Dakota field headquarters. CHRONOLOGICAL REVIEW OF THE El\rvIRONMEl\"TAL ThfPACT RESEARCH e SPONSORED BY THE METROPOLITAN MOSQUITO COl\"TROL DISTRICT (ItfMCD) 1985 , May I, 1985 ~ The MJv1CD Technical Advisory Board (TAB) recommends to the MMCD Commission to: a) update the 1977 EIS; b) fund long-term research at $100-200,000 per year to determine the effects of the program on the aquatic food chain. August 1, 1985 - The MMCD Budget Committee recommended inclusion of $30,000 to update the 1977 EIS, $150,000 for research on food chain impacts in 1986, and a commitment to conduct long term research at a level of $200,000 per year for up to five years.

Thanks Sincerely, ope e John Thompson Data Processing Mgr. cc: R.D. Sjogren, Susan Palchick e AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER " e METROPOLITAN MOSQUITO CONTROL DISTRICT 2380 WYCLIFF STREET ~ ST. Pt..UL, l.mmESOTA 55"4 a 6'2-645-9'49 FAX 612-645-3246 A.D. SJOGREN, Ph.D. Director Cal Blanchard Agronomy Services Division Minnesota Deparnnent of Agriculture 90 W. Plato Blvd. S1. Paul, MN 55107 W.J. CAESAR Business Admin. May 27, 1992 Dear Cal: Thank you again for attending our training session in February. Your expertise was quite helpful in sorting out the issues concerning the use of the adult mosquito control materials Scourge* Insecticide with SBP-1382/Piperonyl butoxide 4% + 12% (EPA Reg. No. 432- 716) and PUNT 57-OS'" (BPA Reg. No. 42737-1). Based on the information presented we have compiled our understanding of some of the label wording. e As we have discussed, the District uses PUNT'" (permethrin) to treat adult mosquitoes in known daytime resting or harborage areas. The District applies PUNT'" as a barrier treatment to the vegetation on the perimeter of these daytime resting areas. Harborage areas are generally defmed as wooded areas with good ground cover to provide a shaded, moist area for the mosquito to rest during the daylight areas, but may include other vegetation that provides the same refuge for mosquitoes. SCOURGE* (resmethrin) is used by the District to treat adult mosquitoes in known areas of concentration or nuisance. It is applied from truck mounted Ultra Low Volume (ULV) machines which produce a fog which contacts the mosquitoes when they are flying. UL V applications are done either in early morning or at dusk and into the evening when mosquitoes become more active. SCOURGE* LABEL WORDING: Under Environmental hazards, the label states 'Do not apply to lakes, streams, or ponds." Under Ultra Low Volume Applications, it states "Spray ..swamps, tidal marshes, residential areas...A void direct application over lakes, ponds and streams. " e MMCD INfERPRETATION: MMCD interprets "lakes and streams" to be the same as "fish bearing waters" on other labels. We follow the interpretation of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources in that a fish bearing water is defined as having gamefish or panfish. This definition of "fish bearing water" was developed through joint discussions of the MDNR with the Department of Agriculture and Division of Fisheries. A "swamp" would be a body of temporary water including those falling under our wetland classification types 1, 2, 3, 4.1, and 4.2 (illustration and definition enclosed). A "pond" would be a permanent water site and would include those falling under our wetland AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER classifications type 4.3, 4.4, and 5. MMCD would therefore not apply SCOURGE~ to any fish bearing waters and would avoid direct application over fish bearing waters as well as any permanent water sites where the a open water might be impacted by treatment. ., As there is no distance restriction to stay away from bodies of water, MMCD interprets the label to say that if the wind is blowing towards the east yet there is a wetland on the west, then the spray can be directed towards the east if there are no lakes, ponds or streams to the east. LABEL WORDING: Under precautionary statements it says, A void breathing vapor or spray mist. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. MMCD INTERPRETATION: It is our understanding that this precaution is primarily intended for the applicator's safety, however we have taken the following additional precautions. The spray apparatus is turned off when pedestrians or other people are outside and visible. They are restarted when out of the reach of direct application to pedestrians or other people. Fogging is only done when recommended wind is present (2- 8 mph) so the material moves through the treatment area appropriately. PUl'TT'" LABEL WORDING: Under Environmental hazards, the PUNT'" label states 'Do not apply to any body of water or wetlands (swamps, bogs, marshes and potholes)." Under Where to Use it states "Under no conditions should open water be treated with this product. Not to be used within 100 ft. of lakes and streams." MMCD INTERPRETATION: Again, MMCD interprets the definition of "lakes and e streams" to be fish bearing waters. PUNT"" is applied to the foliage, usually as a barrier treatment We have extended the 100 ft. barrier to 150 ft to ensure compliance with the label. We assume that we can treat the vegetation within 100 ft (150 with our increased barrier) of wetlands, other than lakes and streams, as long as the wetland itself is not treated. The PUNT'" label describes use with "UL V portable backpack equipment ... to deliver UL V particles of SO to 100 microns mass median diameter" and use with "truck mounted non-thermal UL V equipment ... to deliver spray particles of 8 to 20 microns mass medi~ diameter." We have a hand held ULV machine that delivers particles of true ULV size (90% of particles are less than 15 microns); we assume that this can be used with the PUNT"" . These are the understandings with which we are going into the 1992 field season. Adult mosquito control operations begin in the last week of May; please let us know as soon as possible if our interpretations are incorrect Thank you.

Sjogren, Ph.D., Director Metropolitan Mosquito Control District 2380 Wycliff Street St. Paul, MN 55114 Dear Doctor Sjogren: As you requested we have evaluated the potential hazards of human exposure to the chemicals used by MMCD. The enclosed report includes a review of the scientific literature as well as the results of discussions with scientists and physicians. During the course of the evaluation process, additional comments and suggestions (in areas other than health effects) were made by the outside experts regarding your proposed allergy testing program. These comments were not included in the body of the attached report, but they may be helpful as you consider the various alternatives regarding public complaints. The additional comments by those persons con- tacted are summarized as follows: 1. Offering an allergy testing program may result in an inundation of requests for allergy tests. Pyrethroids are generally regarded as one of the safest known pesticides and offering allergy testing could create a non-productive controversy. Costs for testing a large number of people would be considerable. 2. An allergy testing program would be a "good public relations tactic" and the data collected would be interesting, but allergy testing may not be pertinent to the health effects issues since the substances under consideration have not been found to be allergenic. 3. One suggested alternative was to concentrate on an educational approach since the number of complaints is small. 4. Another suggestion was to require complainants to present a physician's request before providing an allergy test. This approach would probably not completely prevent the problems described in item one. an equal opportunity employer R.n. Sjogren, Ph.D. -2- March 16, 1984 5. The suggestion was also made to retain a con- sultant allergist(s) to evaluate the validity and feasibility of the MMCD proposal before go- ing ahead with the allergy testing program. The feeling was that this is a new and complex question and should be studied in detail by an expert (i.e., allergist). e These comments and our hazard evaluation suggest that a publicly offered allergy testing program would produce a large number of requests for the testing service with little resulting public health benefit. We do believe, however, that involving an allergist in your program will be helpful in evaluating and resolving complaints. If you have any questions regarding the enclosed evaluation and the above comments please call Larry Gust of my staff at 623-5325. Sincerely, (j?~JW.~ Raymond W. Thron, Ph.D., P.E. Director of Environmental Health e e e . EVALUATION OF niE HUMAN HEALTH HAZARDS OF RES~!ETHRIN/PIPERONYL BUTOXIDE INSECTICIDE BACKGROtmD Each year,the Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (MMCD) receives 10.15 complaints from citi~ens who claim they are hypersensitive to insecticide sprays. The MMCD in response to these concerns is consider- ing a "District policy which would require such citizens to have sensitivity testing conducted by an allergist retained by the District to verify sensitivity to District used materials prior to granting special exemptions to neighborhood treatment...".1 The following report is an evaluation e of the potential hazards of human exposure to the chemicals used by MMCD. This evaluation includes a review of the scient~fic literature as well as the results of discussions with scientists and physicians including , allergists, entomologists~'medical entomologists, and pesticide scientists. The insecticide of concern is a combination of a synthetic pyrethroid ~. (resmethrin) and a synergin (piperonyl butoxide). Resmethrin is a mixture of four sterioisomers L40 percent (+) trans, 40 percent (-) cis, 10 percent C+) cis and 10 percent (-) trans). The.synergin, piperonyl butoxide. has no insecticidal activity, bpt when added to pyrethroid formulations it enhances, i.e., synergizes. the pyrethroid's insecticidal activity. Both compounds were reviewed and a summary of their toxicology is presented in the following sections. e -,- ~~S~ETHRIN TOXICITY of jn~~~ticides, the pyrethrins. Pyrethroids are structural modifications of one of the oldest class e fJ~~~r~, are remarkably effective but unstable compounds and for the .. Pyrethrins, derived from pyrethrum mg~t p~Tt have been replaced by the newer pyrethroids which have greatly i d d bOlO 2 mprgy~. potency an 5ta ~ ~ty. A~~~~ Oral Toxicity ~~veral investigators have studied the acute oral toxicity of ',~m~~hrin. Berteau exposed female mice to resmethrin in soya-bean P~'. The resulting LDSO was 1390 mg/kg.3 Verschayle exposed female f.~~ ~o resmethrin using two solvents 35 carriers, dimethyl sulphoxide (~D) and pOlyethylene glycol 400 (PEG-400).4 The LDSOS were 1347 mg/kg Im~ J99S mg/kg, respectively. Miyamoto exposed both male and female ~~e and rats to racemic resmethrin and to the c.~) trans and (+) cis ~so~ers.S Table I shows the LDso for each combination. e Table 1. ..Acute Oral TOxicity of Resmethrin C9mpOllfl d~ Mice Male- Female Rats Male - Female ~p~~mi~ (!to) ~rans (po) cis (po) trans (!to) ~~s 690 590 152 500 3700 940 800 160 600 5000 >5000(0)* >5000(0)* -!rgures in parenthesis indicate percentage (\) mortality at the highest lip~a~e. Tnese studies point out that resmcthrin toxicity is dependent on the iiOm~r ~sed and the species exposed. e ... -2- Acute and Subacute. Inhalation Toxicity Miyamoto exposed mice and rats to aerosolized rcsmethrin.5 The e animals were exposed continuously to a mist (particle size 1-2 ~m) of the compound at different concentrations for four hours. No deaths were recorded even at the highest concentrations; however, toxic symptoms like hypersensitivity, motor ataxia~ and urinary incontinence were observed during heavy exposure. See Table 2 for exposure conditions and ,.esults. Table 2.

No siznificant effects were revealed in any of the examinations including hematology, clinical biochemistry, and microscopic histopathology of major oreans and tissues. Subacute and Chronic Toxicity Miyamoto assessed the subacute and chronic ~oxicity of ~he (+) ~rans &nd cis isomers of resmethrin in a rodent feeding study.S Groups of e -3- "20 male nnd female rats were fed 500, 1500 and 5000 ppm in their diet for 24 weeks. Examinations were made on behavior, morality, growth, e food intake and water consumption, and urinalysis during feeding, and at terminal necropsy, on hematology~ clinical biochemistry, major organ weight and microscopic histopathology of a number of organs and tissues. The no-effect level for resmethrin was 1500 ppm. At 5000 ppm a slight increase in liver weight and the enzyme'A!Pase were observed. Teratogenicity Teratogenicity studies were conducted by Miyamoto on mice and rats . h () d .. f h. 5 F. f t t t USlng t e + trans an C1S lsomers 0 resmet rln. ~ teen 0 wen y pregnant mice or rats per dose were used, and for breeding of offspring 7 extra pregnant animals were used. See Table 3 for exposure conditions. e Table 3.

In a study by Swentzel, no teratologic effects were found in rats in which up to lethal doses of the chemical were added to lTound feed.6 . MUtagenicity/carcinogenicity Hutagenetic studies were also reported by Hiyamoto.S At doses of 10 mg/plate of racemic resmethrin and its cis and trans isomers dissolved e .~ . -4- e in dimethyl sulphoiide,no mutagenic effects were noted in the bacteria E. coli and s. typhimurium (in terms of revertants compared to controls and nitroquanidine). Similarly, in the host mediated assay, no signi- ficant number of revertants were detected. In vitro mutagenic (Ames) testing by Swent:el did not indicate mutagenic activity~.6. No reports were found that studied the carcinogenicity of resmethrin. e Allergic Reactions and Irritant Toxicity Pyrethrum flowers are members of the large Compositae family and thus, are botanically related to ragweed. In the past, humans allergic to ragweed pollen have developed cross-sensitization allergies when exposed to pyrethrins.2 Cross-sensitization is defined as sensitization to a substance induced by exposure to another substance having cross- reacting antigens. Purification processes were subsequently applied to pyrethrin production to remove the components responsible for allergic reactions; however. the question has been raised whether people with ragweed allergies could develop cross-sensitization reactions when exposed to the structurally: similar synthetic pyrethroids. No studies were found examining this '"question. J.1iyamoto report$ that none of the synthetic pyrethroids, including resmethrin, are irritants to either rabbit skin or to rabbit eyes.S Only slight transient congestion of conjunctiva or lacrimation was produced by massive instillation of pyrethroid compounds. Miyamoto reports that the Association of Food and Drug Officials of the U.S. found none of the synthetic pyrethroids to be a skin sensitizer in guinea pigs, when tested by the prescribed method (intracutaneous administration every other e -S- day for 20 days and one intracutaneous 14 days later for challenging).S e Swentzel evaluated the risks associated with the proposed use .of resmethrin , as an imp regnant onmiltaryfabrics.6 Acute and repeated applications of the material to rabbit skin failed to produce irritant or acneform reactions. Cotton sateen cloth impregnated with resmethrin produced only 8s1ight irritant reaction in 8 24-day wear test with rabbits. No reports were found which studied human allergic/irritant reactions to resmethrin. PIPERONYL BUTOXIDE TOXICITY Acute Oral Toxicity Acute oral LDSOs for piperonyl but~xide in rats range from 7960- 10600 mg/kg'b.w.7,S In dogs the LDSO was greater than 7650 mg/kg b.w. and in cats greater than 10600 mg/kg b.w.7 e Chronic Toxicity A two-year study in rats with commercial grade piperonyl butoxide in the diet at 0, 100, 1000.: 25000 ppm showed reduced weight gain in . I aales at 1000 ppm.7 Mortality and a significant increase in the kidney and liver weight were observed in both sexes at 10000 ppm. The no-effect level for piperonyl butoxide was determined to be 100 ppm (equivalent to 5 ag/kg b.w./day). Effects of piperonyl butoxide on aixed function oxidases have also been noted but the significance of these effects has not been determined.7 ~ e ~ -6- Mutagenicity and Carcinogenicity e A gene mutation study in E. coli without metabolic activation showed no compound-related effects.' A DNA damage test in mice was also negative and a dominant lethal test in mice was inconclusive.' An IS-month study in mice with commercial grade piperonyl butoxide in the diet at 0 and 300 ppm was inconclusive.9 A study in mice in which commercial grade piperonyl butoxide was ~dministered in the diet.at , O. 1036. and 2084 ppm for ll~ weeks revealed no compound-related effects. A two-year study in mice in which commercial grade piperonyl butoxide was administered in the diet at 2500 and 5000 ppm for 30 weeks followed by reduction to SOD and 2000 ppm. respectively, for 82 weeks also showed no , compound-related effects. Allergic Reactions Irritant Toxicity e No studies were found examining the allergic potential and irritant toxicity of piperonyl butoxide in either animals or humans. CO~ME~7S FROM OUTSIDE SCIENTISTS AND PHYSICIANS Ten scientists and physicians outside the Department (see list below) were conducted and asked for their comments on the toxicity of resmethrin and piperonyl but oxide and on the usefulness of performing allergy tests for this insecticide. . Dave Noetlel LaVarre Uhlken University of Minnesota, Entomologist Region V EPA, Chicago, Pestcide Scientist e -,- Dr. Donald Eliason Center for Disease Control, Fort Carson, CO Medical Entomologist Penick Corp, NJ, Pes~icide Scientist e Minneapolis, Allergist Minneapolis, Allergist Illinois Health Department, Entomologist Dr. Marte Devries Dr. Willia~ Schoenwetter Dr. Joseph Kelley Harvey Dominic Dr. Malcolm Blumenthal Minneapolis, Allergist University of California, Berkeley, CA Pesticide Scientist Dr. John Casida Dr. Paul Johnson St. Paul, Occupational Medicine The pertinent comments of the above individuals are summarized below: 1. Several contacts reported hearing anecdotal reports of adverse responses in humans exposed to synthetic pyrethroids. Responses included prick- ling and itching of the skin (i.e., face, tongue, lips, nasal passages, e eyes and hands), numbness of face and hands, and lacrimation. These responses have not been quantified and it is not clear whether the responses are allergic or toxic irritant reactions. 2. The contacts were not aware of any specific reports of allergicl irritant reactions to resmethrin or piperonyl butoxide. 3. Allergists stated that people allergic to ragweed could exhibit cross-sensitization to pyrethrin. They did not know if cross-sensitization might also occur with synthetic pyrethroids. 4. Allergists stated that when people with an existing disease. e.g.. asthma, other respiratory diseas~, beart disease, etc., were exposed e ~ -8- an exacerbation of the disease. This is not an allergi~ response and PI 'to an inhaled p'cllutant (e. g., ,insecticide spray) they could manifest e not necessarily a response to an irritant. Any number of non-toxic , agents" e.g., odors, non-toxic mists, cold air, etc., can trigger an adverse respiratory reaction, particularly asthma. This comment was made several times and also appears in the literature.IO s. Infants and elderly are often highly susceptible to various environmental agents. This reaction is. often not an allergic response. 6. Allergy testing of individuals exposed to insect spraying could give a false sense of security. That is, an individual could have a negative allergy test to the insecticide and yet have an adverse response when exposed (see comments '4 and IS). 7. Skin reactions can be either an allergic or toxic irritant response. Patch testing will by design exclude allergic contact dermatitis but e is of no value in diagnosing irritant dermatitis. 8. The allergists contacted have not conducted allergy testing on these compounds and were not aware of other allergists who had. Some felt it would be difficult ~o interpret the results without more animal studies being done first. S~y AND CONCLUSIONS The literature review indicates that the acute and chronic toxicity of both resmethrin and piperonyl butoxide is very low. Although the level of information was limited. there were not studies indicating these compounds were either allergens or toxic irritants. There are anecdotal reports of synthetic pyrethroids producing mild irritant reactions but these e -9- have not been detected in scientific studies. Discussions ~ith scientists and physicians also reveal no indication that resmethrin and piperonyl butoxide are either allergens or irritants. The consensus of opinion is that if this insecticide was to produce an adverse effect it would be an exacerbation of an existing condition induced by an individual's hyper- susceptability to foreign substances and probably not an allergic or ;' toxic irritant reaction. The available scientific literature and the opinion of those knowledgeable in the area of respiratory allergic and irritant response do not support the conclusion that exposure to these materials, as they are typically used in pest control, results in a significant potential for the occurrence of human health effects. i I ~ . -10- e e e e e e . .. . . .

ThIS letter recaps the position that I share with the Sierra Club. Audubon Society. Izaak Walton League, Human Ecology Action League, various local city. state, and park officialS. and hundreds of cltltzens around the metro area who have complained and succeeded in banning nuisance mosquito controlS. We have been carefully scrutinizing the MMCD in the best interest of public health and welfare and environmental protection, not for political reasons. Unfortunately Ross Green. information director of the MMCD. used a red herring to distract us in the June 23 presentation. He may have convinced some of you that controlling nuisance mosquitos with adulticides IS part of the main control strategy for mosquito borne diseases. This IS not the case. First. the concern is with just two parks, not the whole city or private land. According to MMCD policy and procedures, adulticlding Js...nQt part of a long term nuisance mosquito control program, nor is it the preferred method of mosquito disease control. Education and prevention is. As you may conclude from the evidence in this packet, the MMCD adulticides themselves can be a considerable health risk. Exposure to health-threatening adulticides is far greater than exposure to diseases from mosquitos, even If spraying is done for just for one event Ifs only a matter of time before more people put cause and effect together or get sick from adulticldes. I hope you agree it is ... best to err on the side of caution before it is too late. .. Pat Kelly, the Dept. of Agrlc. investigator noted in his report on the 1991 illegal adulticiding at lake Ann that what the front office [of the MMCD) says and what they do In the field are two different things. Ross Green stated In a letter that Punt treatments were done according to the label at Lake Ann. but I found that was not true. as you can see from the punishment Imposed on the MMCD in the case file. I hope you alSo view the safety and effectiveness Of the nuisance mosquito control program with healthy skepticism. I hope this information paCket will try to objectively clear the air about any misconceptions presented before you. These findings have been discussed and endorsed with the citizen environmental groups mentioned above. If you need more information. I will do aliI can to help. Please call me at 470-9726. After you get a chance to review the material, I would like a chance to speak with each of you before the July 28 meeting. z~~.~' Eric Rivkin cc: Chanhassen City Council Members e e e e page 2 What is the issue? To my understanding, the iSsue is whether adulticlde spray applications be allowed in Lake Ann Park and Lake Susan Park to control nuisance mosquitos because the safety and effectiveness of the MMCD's chemicals are In question. Adulticides can pose a real threat to human health and the environment The MMCD does not warn the public adequately about hazards found In the labels or studies that suggest or confirms adverse effects. The people of Chanhassen should also be told that safer, environmental alternatives to control and cope with nuisance mosquitos have worked elsewhere, and could be tried as a substitute for chemical controls. A vote for banning adulticldes can be: 1. A vote fQr protecting public health 2. A vote fQr environmental protection 3. A vote fQr trying safer, alternative methods of nuisance mosquito control Adulticide safety and effectiveness was also the hot topic at the annual meeting of the MMCD's Technical Advisory Board (T AS), and the MMCCommisslon's policy committee, which I attended. There is absolutely no evidence to suggest that adulticiding of any kind deserves any credit for the low number of encephalitis cases in the metro area, which total 17 in the entire metro area for the last 10 years, according to MnDOH statistiCs. Private landowners and municipalities have the right under Statute 473.704 to refuse the MMCD's nuisance mosquito control program only, not the disease-carrying mosquito program. The park board or city council can recommend going beyond an adulticide ban to include larvacides, or include other publicly owned land, restrict the use of adulticides, or require the notification to citizens and mandatory posting of treated areas. Minneapolis, Hennepin parks, DNR parks. the Mn. Valley Refuge (in Chanhassen, too), and other parks and nature areas have banned or severely restricted nuisance mosquito chemical controls. So far, few citizens have complained about the removal of mosquito controls because there hasn't been a noticeable difference. What is D..Q1 at issue? A vote for banning adultlcldes in the two parks should not 1. Affect Chanhassen withdrawing from the district, or affect nuisance mosquito control programs on other public and private land in Chanhassen 2. Affect the disease-bearing mosquito control program 3. Debate the safety and effectiveness of the larvacides used to control nuisance mosquitos in Chanhassen 4. Involve the politics of mosquito control page 3 Are mosquito-borne diseases a threat in Lake Ann and Lake Susan parks? Aedes vexans, the largest target of the MMCD's adulticiding and larvaciding program, is a nuisance mosquito and does not transmit disease. Nuisance mosquitos will always be In abundance depending on the weather, and are not regarded as a health threat by the State Department of Health (DOH). Adultlcides the MMCD uses such as Punt and Scourge are used as a temporary control to only suppress, not eradicate, adult mosquitos. Mosquito populations are suppressed for only a few days, e then rise to normal again after effects wear off. Adulticide spraying is not the MMCD's control strategy for disease-carrying mosquitos, nor is this strategy endorsed by the DOH, DNR or the TAB. The MMCD does not classify Lake Ann and Lake Susan parks as risk areas for any mosquitos that may carry diseases to humans, even though Ross Green emphasized LaCrosse encephalitis existed elsewhere In Chanhassen five times, albeit before 1984. On LaCrosse encephalitis (LCE): LCE does not appear a likely threat in these two parks. Aedes triserfatus, the only mosquito that could transmit the LCE virus, Is rarely found to carry It LCE virus is so rare In Chanhassen. that according to Dave Neitzel of the MMCD, the last LCE case in Chanhassen was 8 years ago, with only a total of 5 LCE cases from 1970 until 1984. Surveillance of A triserlatus In the LCE case areas did not start until 1989. Surveillance of Lake Ann Park A. triserfatus did not start until this year. No A triseriatus mosquitos in Chanhassen were found to have LCE virus since 1984. It may be possible, even though not likely, that those people who contracted LCE may have done so outside of Chanhassen. Only up to 5% of mosquitos In anyone sample taken by the MMCD are A. triserfatus. A triseriatus may be found In Lake Ann Park as it can be found commonly In other wooded areas, but the MMCD does not look for the virus unless someone gets infected. and then the DOH is involved in a control plan. A. triserfatus is daytime active, does not fly tar from its original wooded habitat, and does not like to fly In sunlight. The probability that A. triserfatus mosquitos are likely to fly from their isolated areas is very low. Another reason they are so few is that their breeding sites are so specialized. A trfseriatus breeds only in tree holes, which can be found and filled, or artificial containers like old tires, pop cans, etc, which can be removed. The most effective control strategy is to educate citizens and eliminate breeding sites. Adultlcide spraying is only used as a last resort, and has been going on in only one area In Chanhassen since 1984. To date, A. trfseriatus has not been eradicated using adulticides. Lake Ann and Lake Susan parks are not classified as LCE risk areas. Please do not be misled to think that adulticiding for nuisance mosquitos will keep the LCE risk low, because there is little LCE risk in the two parks, and eliminating adulticiding does not affect disease control. As long as the parks and surrounding areas are free of artificial containers and tree holes, risk of contracting LCE will be extremely minimal. e On Western equine encephalitis (WEE): Even more rare than LCE is WEE, rarely carried by the cattail mosquito, C. perturbans. According to the DOH and the Board of Animal Health, there have been no reported cases of WEE in Chanhassen in humans, and no cases of WEE in Carver County since 1959. I could not find evidence that C. perturbans with WEE virus has ever been found In Chanhassen. There were less than a handful of human cases of WEE in all of the seven county district, according to the DOH. Every TAB member knows the program to control cattail mosquitos is primarily for nuisance mosquitos, not for WEE control. On Heartworm In dogs: There is no evidence that the MMCD's mosquito control program has reduced heartworm In dogs any where In the metro area. The State Board of Animal Health (BAH) says that heartworm IS not a reportable disease, so statistics are lacking. Heartworm originated from Florida, and is spreading westward. The BAH knows that every place that has many mosquitos will probably have higher heartworm rates, and there IS no proof that reducing the mosquito population reduces heartworm risk. A state veterinary official said they are certain that heartworm is nearty 1000/0 preventable with over-the-counter medication taken as directed. The effectivity of mosquito controls to prevent heartworm is probably a tiny fraction of that at best, since mosquitos are always in abundance. On Lyme ticks: Adulticiding for nuisance mosquitos has nothing to do with control of Iyme ticks. The MMCD has only conducted tick monitoring In the metro area. and no control program exists. Researchers in Connecticut announced recently that a vaccine for Lyme disease works in mice. Even though a human version is years away, It has the potential of eradicating the disease and make a chemical control program obsolete and cost-ineffective. e page 4 Are mosquito control adulticldes really a human health threat? There are studies which show the hazards and unpredictability of using pyrethroid adulticides, of which the MMCD primarily uses two. Punt 57-OS is a permethrln, and Scourge (cold-fogging) is a resmethrin. Pyrethroids are synthetically produced compounds that are chemically similar to pyrethrins extracted from chrysanthemums. Pyrethroids are contact Insecticides that cause paralysis and death of target and non-target organisms. Punt is sprayed In Lake Ann Park for July 4 events. e Potentially hundreds of our citizens face a real health threat from these adulticides because they may be chemically sensitive, or become so. The attached article in the Journal of Pesticide Reform (1990) cites many studies whiCh confirm these risks. Here are some highlights from that plus facts from other sources: _ Health studies have shown that many petroleum hydrocarbons... pose potential human health risks which may vary from person to person (Material Safety Data Sheet. MSDS - for Punt's solvent xylene) _ (from Punt's label) Hazards to Humans: Harmful../f absorbed through the skin. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, or clothing. . (from Scourge's label) Hazards to Humans: Avoid breathing vapor or spray mist Avoid contact with skin eyes or clothing. _ Carcenogenic studies of permethrin, resmethrin have shown Increases in various kinds of cancers. (6 references In JPR) _ [Of all the pyrethroids], only permethrin has been determined to be a potential or weak carcinogen by the EPA (EPA, 1979) _ People, especially children, with a history of allergy or asthma appear to be particularly sensitive... (EPA, 1979) _ Exposure to pyrethroids can result in allergic contact dermatitis (confirmed) and asthma-like reactions, Including runny nose and eyes (resmethrin) (Newton et ai, 1983 and Mitchell et aI., 1972). _ Several .inerts., or secret ingredients in pyrethroid formulations are known or suspected carcinogens, or are chemicals which depress the central nervous system such as xyIenes. (Journal of Pesticide Reform, 1990) _ Permethrin... has shown som mutagenic effects. Only in the case of permethrin was the response (changes In mice bone marrow) found to be signifICant (3 references, JPR) . Other possible effects include suppression of the immune system, and damage to the nervous system. (6 references in JPR) _ Effects on reproduction have been observed with several pyrethroids and pyrethrins (5 references in JPR) _ Pyrethroids may be used with piperonyl butoxide, such as in Scourge, which Increases Its overall acute toxic effects. _ 15% of our population is hypersenitive to synthetic chemicals in our environment (National Acad. of Sciences, 1992). . Up to 40% of individuals with ragweed allergies may be particularly sensitive to pyrethrln (Zucker, A. 1965). _ Four to five percent of the population may be sensitive to pyrethrum extracts (Mass. Audubon Society, 1991 report). e Punt 57-OS contains xylene, a neurotoxic cancer-causing solvent, and Is one of the 17 most harmful chemicals on the governor's environmental task force list. The toxicologist responsible for Punt's formulation, said Punt contains 5% xylene by mass, and 37% of Punt is xylene range of aromatic hydrocarbon solvents. Astonishingly, Ross Green emphatically denied that Punt contains xylene, told to the public on June 23. Susan Palchik, MMCD Aedes Program Manager, denies that adulticides are a human health risk in a letter to the Sierra Club, -rhey are applied at the label rate, therefore they pose no threat.. This statement contradicts the known hazards stated on the labels and the studies conducted on adulticide effects. Applicators are required to wear respirators to prevent exposure to the toxic sprays. Massive use of these airborne toxicants also aggravates air pollution because they contain a high portion of aromatic petroleum solvents. The EQB, DOH, and the Dept. of Ag. will be reviewing the registration of Punt and Scourge on the basis of their affect on human health and pollution. Ross Green tells the public that it is MMCD policy never to spray adultlcides directly on bystanders. But In the Dept. of Agriculture report on the illegal Punt application at Lake Ann PCirk, the unlicensed operator sprayed around children present at the beach playground. They were probably exposed to the drift from the spray. Ross Green gave the impression June 23 that all control materials like Punt are so safe they can be obtained .over the counter-, but Roussel-Blo. manufacturers of Punt and Scourge said they are too dangerous to be sold that way. They added that Punt should only be applied by licensed, trained professional agencies as it says on the labels, and were shocked to leam that the MMCD would allow unlicensed seasonal employees to apply It. The health hazards of Punt insecticide became more apparent when my son and I became victims of needless exposure to e this control material illegally sprayed at Lake Ann last summer. We had to su~er mild headeaches and nausea without ever page 5 being notified of the hazards by the MMCD, who have an ineffective notification system. The health hazards of Scourge became more apparent when Kate Erickson and her family in St Paul were exposed to the fogging that drifted into their house when the MMCD sprayed her neighborhood at night without any notification. Kate had severe convulsions from exposure to the cold fogging and testified in her letter to health officials that she felt -lucky to be alive-. Hundreds of citizens called the e Minneapolis park board to complain about the adverse health effects of the adulticides when they too became innocent bystanders when they were directly exposed to MMCD foggers. Result: The Minneapolis Park Board outlawed MMCD mosquito controls on all 6400 acres of park and city land on June 9, challenging the MMCD's unsupported safety and effectiveness. The scare tactics we witnessed at the June 23rd meeting employed by the MMCD may have been out of desperation because of this. In August 1991, MMCD staff sprayed trails in St Paurs Crosby Farm Park when schoolchildren were present The park's naturalist with the class refused to lead the children through the toxified area, for fear they would be exposed to the pesticide. She was also angered there were no warnings and that the MMCD tried to convince her the chemicals weren't harmful. The children observed, -If it wasn't harmful, then why were the sprayers wearing masks-. Lack of Sa rely Anurancl. or I Good NOUflcltlon System Citizens ought to feel secure that mosquito pesticides are tested and safe, yet there is no evidence that all Ingredients have been fully tested safe for humans. Their hazardous effects have not been revealed. The MMCD boasts that their pesticides have EPA registration, and therefore should be presumed safe. In fact. EPA registration is not a measure of safety, according to U.S. congressional testimony by the New York State Attorney General. EPA registration merely means that required tests were conducted so the product will -perform its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on the environmenr. Registration does not require that full environmental or human health effects studieS be done. -'nerr ingredients, which may constitute up to 99.8% of the pesticides used by the MMCD, have little or no health testing. The nature of these inerts are protected by trade secret and need not be disclosed to the EPA or the public. NCAMP reported in 1985 that some inert ingredients in mosquito abatement pesticides may actually be more toxic than the active ingredients. An adequate notification system does not exist to protect US against needless exposure. To minimize the risk to their health. e citizens have the right to know in a timely manner when nuisance mosquito pesticides are used in their area if Chanhassen parks should continue their use. The MMCD has failed repeatedly to give notice to me and other citizens who requested in writing to be notified In advance of the spraying to avoid exposure. Applications of Punt are virtually impossible to get, since it was excluded from the MMCD's cold-fogging hotline (491-2850). If adulticldes must be used, posting sprayed areas for the with signs listing the hazards from the product labels and confirmed studieS should be considered minimum requirement for notification. Are adulticldes Punt and Scourge harmful to the environment? Reading the labels reveal the known environmental hazards - -Highly toxic to fish. birds, bees, etc-. All the MMCD personnel were ordered to re-educate themselves of the environmental importance of following the label restrictions as part of their penalty in the Lake Ann incident. StudieS referred to In the Journal of Pesticide Reform, fall 1990 have shown that small Insect-eating birds are vulnerable to affects by pyrethroids if they substantially change their toocl supply. Pyrethrlns have been shown to cause birth defects in certain birds and behavioral effects on quail. These adulticldes are sprayed at critically sensitive times when birds are rearing their young In the same harborage where mosquitos are. There are no environmental studies to disprove the harmful effects of adulticldes on wildlife. Wildlife experts and park naturalists on the attached list of contacts are all aware of the potential harmful effects, and therefore ban adulticldes from their parks. Feel free to call some of them. e e e e page 6 Are adulticides really effective nuisance mosquito control? TAB members feel it would be an environmental catastrophe and cost prohibitive to kill all the mosquitos for the sake of comfort. The director of the MMCD, Robert Sjogren. even agrees it is "not an eradication program". What is the real cost in terms of our health and environmental effects of adulticides? The MMCD has drastically reduced the adulticiding program from 226,000 acres in 1990 to 22,000 acres projected for 1992. presumably because it Is Ineffective as a long term control, and because of concern over adverse effects expressed by the TAB. Ross Green told us that 60.000 breeding sites have been Identified in the district for control treatments for nuisance mosquitos. What they don't emphasize Is that nuisance mosquitos' favorite breeding spots are 6" deep natural or artificial temporary water-holding depressions. This means hundreds of thousands of puddles, gutters. containers. kiddie pools, etc. that breed billions more mosquitos that the MMCD will never "control". Add to that the billions of mosquitos that blow in from outside the district, and there's no wonder why mosquitos are still so plentiful. Ross Green also told us that it is policy that adulticlde spraying is not done according to a schedule, but on need. Mosquito counts are done supposedly to qualify for any adulticide spraying, including special events. If the count is less than 5 bites in 5 minutes. they say they won't spray. Where is the count data that justified spraying at regular intervals at Lake Ann year after year? In Spring Brook Nature Center, where mosquito controls are now banned. larval counts reported to the Center's director could not be substantiated with supervised dip tests on several occasions. Other mosquito districts think that adulticlding is not effective. Dr. Liem. Chicago's Mosquito Abatement District director, states that" Adulticides are useless. They are harmful to people and the environment, and are not an effective means of control." Everyone has their own tolerance threshold for mosquito bites, but does the fact that nuisance mosquitos ar~lentiful in Chanhassen and its parks mean that metropolitan mosquito control isn't working? Evidence only shows thOSY'11I enough to make a difference. TAB members feel it is unrealistic for the MMCD to set the tolerance goal of 2-bites-ln-5-minutes without devastating costs to our pocketbooks or the environment In a May 27 memo, MMCD policy extended the required spray distance near fish-bearing waters from 100' to 150' from the waters edge. At Lake Ann and Lake Susan Parks. that means a huge portion of the adult mosquito wooded harborage can never be treated. making it difficult to believe that spraying the remaining foliage in the parks will make a difference in reducing mosquito populations. Citizens will bring their repellent anyway and use common sense to avoid being there at the mosquito's active time at dusk. Scientists agree that mosquito numbers are controlled by the weather, not periodic or season-long chemical control programs. Peak rain years always have sent out mosquitos at high levels in spite of 32 years of chemical warfare. (see att. chart) According to the MMCD's own data, overall A. vexans numbers haven't been reduced and there's no scientific proof that annoyance has been reduced anywhere in the metro area. page 7 Are there alternative nuisance mosquito control methods? There are more cost-effective and non-chemical alternatives to mosquito control involving source reduction, personal protection, and natural predation that work already, or need more research. But efforts to move them forward are thwarted by an apparent conflict of interest. The director of the MMCD, Robert Sjogren, personally recieves one-third royalty on timed-release formulations sold outside the district that he co-invented with our tax money. Many attempts have been made In other parts of the US, with various degrees of success, to control mosquitos without chemical insecticides, including Sjogren's Inventions. Citizens and cities can control mosquitos in their own backyards with low cost and environmentally benign ways. Here's a summary adapted from the Massachusetts and South Cook County Mosquito Abatement District publications: e Source Reduction Eliminating places that support mosquitos, without interfering with wetland ecosystems. Maintain natural drainage patterns, eliminate temporary standing water by designing culverts and ditches better. Eliminate shallow retention ponds for runoff. Give predatory fish access to areas where mosquito larvae occur. Educate people to eliminate standing water in people's own backyards, gutters, small pools. Landscape, or clean out undesirable underbrush, to minimize harborage. Protect horses and cattle better to reduce potential blood meals. Personal protection Build a screened porch. Wear light colored clothing. Don't wear perfumes outdoors. Stay inside in early morning and evening. There are non-toxic repellents that are chemical-free or DEET-free, like Safe 'n Free and Bug-Off. The new citrosa plant was bred to repel mosquitos. Natural Predators e Building habitats for tree swallows for thousands of these mosquito-eating machines have been so successful in Salisbury Massachusetts, that six more nearby towns also are putting up hundreds of swallow habitats and banned chemical mosquito controls. (See att. article) Chanhassen Parks could co-ordinate a project with materials and labor donated by local businesses, citizens, and scout troops. Encourage other natural predators, like bats, dragonflies, and purple martins who all eat a steady diet of mosquitos, if thafs the food available. Williston, NO and Camp Ripley erected bat houses with plans recommended by DNRs. Stock small ponds with fish that eat mosquitos larvae. Build nesting sites for ducks that eat mosquito larvae like mallards and wood ducks. Eliminate toxic runoff from lawn chemicals so that salamanders, frogs, and songbirds. can thrive to eat both larval and adult mosquitos in our wetlands and backyards. e e - e page 8 Who Else is concerned? After exhaustive research over the last several years, local environmental groups and I were able to collect enough facts about the true safety and effectiveness of the Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (MMCD's) program that: 1- Convinced the legislature to pass a law this session, authored by Senator Gen Olsen, that put a cap on the wasteful spending of the MMCD, and made legislators aware of the severe lack of accountability of this agency. 2- Convinced former Senator Don Storm to introduce a bill that tried to stop the MMCD from wasting 3.1 million dollars on a new headquarters in St. Paul at a time when budgets were supposed to be cut, and there was a 27% unoccupancy rate. 3- Convinced Senator Johnston and Rep. Kelso to sponsor bills for an adequate notification system to forewarn concerned citizens of the health hazards of mosquito pesticides before they are applied. 4- Convinced the Minneapolis Park Board to unanimously give strong vocal support to outlaw nuisance mosquito control from all 6400 acres of city land and parks. The MMCD director, Robert Sjogren, infuriated the park board by challenging their decision on the TV news by calling it a political, rather than a scientifically based decision. He also failed to show up at the park board meeting he wanted to discuss it. 5- Convinced many other metro area parks, cities, and individual citizens to refuse nuisance mosquito control chemicals. using rights guaranteed under Minnesota Statute 473.704. Through the county commission, two city councils in Maplewood and Forest lake. may go beyond a mere ban and consider opting out of the district altogether, saving their citizens hundreds of thousands in property taxes that could be used to solve real problems, not wasted killing bugs. Programs like protecting natural resources, improving parks and recreation, or help for the poor. June 22,1992 The following twin city metropolitan area scientists, park and public officials have questioned the MMCD's nuisance mosquito control program's safety and effectivity.

Page 2 GeotgelllMl Record March 12. 1992 A natural alternative offered for mosquito control Are you being bugged by mosquitos? Or are the cost.<; and hazards ot the existing methods ot mosquito control getting under your skin? Two brothers in Salisbury have made an offer to the Town ot Georgetown because they teel strongly that the existing method ot spraying chemicals to eradi- cate mosquitos has been causing more harm than good. Herman and Robert Eaton have offered 100 tree bird houses to Georgetown to help alleviate the mosquito problem in town by encouraging the return ot tree swallows. In the past six years, they have made and distributed 1,200 bird houses to the towns of Sea brook, New Hampshire, and Salisbury, Massachusett.<;. Last week, they pve 100 to neighboring Rowley to use in the marshlands to con- trol mosquitos and greenheads. They will give 50 structures, each with two "apartment.<;". The town must provide the 50 poles to hold the houses and must install them. The poles should be stan- dard 2 x 3 lumber, eight feet long. In exchange tor the gift of bird- houses, the Eatons want the town to withdraw trom the Essex County Mosquito Control Pro- ject. "There's no sense putting them in it you're going to keep spray- ing," Robert Eaton said, The brothers started with 50 birdhouses in the wooded area near Salisbury Beach in 1983. "You couldn't stand to be out- side in that area when we first went there. We went back the fol- lowing year with 50 more houses, and people came out and hugged us. They told us they were able to 10 out.<;ide during the greenhead season for the first time since they lived there,"Herman said. "This is the way to go. They clear up everything. They eat their weight in flying insects every day," Robert said. They went on to describe the unusual nesting habits ot the tree swallow. "They fly right by us now," Robert said. "I remember when they were all over the place here, but the spraying has driven them off." When there is a tavorable envi- ronment for them, he said, the birds usually appear on April 5 when they locate the birdhouses and ny away, presumabl)' back south where they wintered. At the end ot June, they return to the houses and lay eggs. Between the time the eggs are laid and the hatching ot the under the jurisdiction ot the Massachusetts Department ot Health. He said he expect.<; House Bill lI5OO, submitted by Joseph McIn- tyre CD, New Bedtord) to be passed this year. Last year, Georgetown had an article on the Town Meeting war- rant in June advocating the with- drawal ot the town trom the Essex County Mosquito Control Program. Supporters otthe spraying pro- gram warned the voters of the dangers ot equine encephalitis being transmitted by mosquitos, and the article was defeated. An activist in the proposal to eliminate chemical spraying, Dr. Theodora F. Capaldo ot West . Street, said, "Part ot my concern at the Town Meeting last year was that both sides ot the issue were not presented in a tair and rational way. I teel the town has been sbort-changed." She sent the selectmen two studies citing the huards and unpredictability otthe use otthe chemical malathion tor mosquito control. _ Walter Montgomery, the Ess County Mosquito Control Distri representative, said he could produce a room tull ot studies showing that malathion is safe when used properly. Montgomery emphasized the dangers ot encephalitis carried by mosquitos. Ralph Temperi, Assistant Commissioner of Massachusetts Department ot Public Health, said Essex County is not classi- fied as a risk area for encephali- tis, but it is not impossible that cases may appear here. He said two cases had been re- ported in the county but were be- lieved to have been contracted in New Hampshire. Capaldo said, "I have spent a lot ottime looking into this issue. I worked with a group (It-advo- cates, mostly mothers, who were successtul in eliminating the program in Newburyport. "In this environmental age, I think it's time to stop taking risks with our children and our own bealth. I encourage Georgetown to err on the side ot satety." Selectman John Olszewski said, "It's not just a matter otthe bealth hazard; there's allo a question otwhether the spraying works." Georgetown paid about $20,000 to remain In the Essex County program this year. The state used to subsidize this expense, but now the towns carry the entir. burden. ., -r:~J- ~' ~~-fc'/.4"7Vl pa~t J'Yt4iJ/ I C~v..&_~'h6 ~'~~. 4,4 ~A $~ - .. -+' J' .//' L - - . ~. 7'l-t2- ~ _-::r- .>~ u;'~ &4..0:."~"" ~~"t.- .........-1 fVt- ~-r;,.... ~. ~ f'~ ~p ,c~ ~ , r. v ~ J ~ -. -, -- , ~" - .r:. -."1:- :., _ ~ .~. young birds. the parents tee at high altitudes and great dis- tances trom their nests. When the eggs hatch, the parents teed close to the birdhouse. Through another quirk otman- aged ecology, the swallows' bird houses cannot be located close to . human dwellings, since that is where the English sparrows con- gregate. These small, seemingly inoffensive sparrows were im- ported into this area many years ago. The birdhouses for theswal- lows cannot be in the same teed, ing area as the sparrows, be-' cause those smaller birds enter the swallows'birdhouses when the parents are out gathering tood, and they kill the youni birds. Theretore, the swallow bomes must be scattered around remote tields and marshes to protect them trom the sparrows. The Eatons have been working on the sea and in the rural areas all their lives, and they have been studying the habits ot the wildlife through a combined pe- riod ot 14 decades. ~Years ago, tarmers and hunters used to cut the marsh grass, and shoal birds used to come up through the marshes and eat the insects," Robert said. "The hunters went out to shoot them by the thousands. You could get 1 IJ2 cents tor a small bird and 10 cents tor a duck in those days. "After the birds were hunted out, you couldn't got into the marshes anymore tor the bugs. "Then the WPA came in during the '30s and started cutting chan- nels in the marshes trom Maine to Florida. They ruined the natu- ral filtering ability ot the marsh- es and killed the clams." He then described how the government started using DDT to kill the insects, but the Insecti- cide killed more than the target Insects, and tbe birds disap- peared. "These people don't under- .tand nature," Robert nld. "We've been drivini away the birds tor 50 years. "We'd like to get every town around here to vote out this spraying prOiram. The Town Meeting has to vote it out" . He recommended that a per- petual care be established simi- lar to that used at cemeteries. The interest trom the fUnd would be used to maintain the bird- houses. The Eaton brothers have a let- ter ot appreciation trom the Town of Seabrook tor their help In reducing the greenhead prob- lem. Theodore Fyrberg picked up 100 birdhouses trom the Eatons last week tor the Town Ot Row- ley. He agre~ with the Eatons that natural methods ot insect control should be used rather than chemical spraying. "We have to i1ve up the spray- ing and get back to nature and .tart over," he said "I've lived through the DDT era, but then along came malathion. They've done tremendous daJna&e to the environment" Fyrberg has been tollowing the course ot the withdrawal of area communities trom the Essex County Mosquito Control Pro- gram tor years. He watched the first town. Essex, get out In 1976. Since then Boxtord, Newbury- port and AmesbuTI have with- drawn. He is enthusiastically In sup- port ot a bill in the slate legisla- ture that will put the responsibil- ity and supervision ot the Insect control prOiram in the state 3.-4 :) .

Metropolitan Mosquito Control District agrees to pay $1000 for improper spraying at Lake Ann Park . e By Thomas Laplc Iu a resuJt of improperly applied mosquito pesticide at Lake Ann Park last June, the Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (MMCD) has paid a $1000 fioe and agreed not to commit the violation again. On June 12, 1991, after visiting Lake ADD Park with his two children, C1anhassen resident Eric Rivkin filed a confidential complaint with the state Department of Agriculture alleging the improper use of pesticides by the M.\fCD. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) has enforcement oversight o"'er the application of pes- ticides. On Dec. 6, 1991, after months of investi~tion and discussions, the MMCD acknowledged the violations and agreed to pay a $ 1 000 fine and "to refrain from committing the viola- tion" again, according to MDA docu- ments. Additionally, a representative of the MMCD was ordered to speak on "the importance of complying with the Mi.noesota Pesticide Law" at the group's pesticide recertification work- shop held this last Feb., using the C1anhassen incident as a case. study. "I hope they've learned their les- soo," said Rivkin, 40, a self-employed business consultant, adding the he remains skeptical of the MMCD. The MMCD complied with all terms and the case was closed 00 Feb. 26, 1992- "My kids and I were playing Fris- bee at Lake Ann Park when I noticed an odor. I started feeling nauseous and got a headache.l traced the smell to oily stuff' on leaves. We went home . an~ showerc~t and w~~ clothes.... Rivkin related. . - . _.

"After sampling, my hands were greasy as if 1 had eaten popcorn," Kdly noted in his report. "I washed my hands after sampling and put on gloves for the next sample.. After taking samples, Kelly vis- ited the MMCD and determined that the pesticide used at the park was Punt 57-OS, a general.use product designed to control adult mosquitoes. Kelly noted that this pesticide is ap- proved for recreational areas, parks and woodJands. However, state pesticide regula. tions do not allow treatment within 100 feet of water: This regulation is designed to prevent the pesticide from draining or drifting into water be- cause of its potential harmful effect on fish. The warning label on Punt 57-OS says, "This pesticide is highly tolOc to fish. Do not apply to any body of water or wetlands... Drift and run- off from treated areas may be hazard- ous to aquatic organisms in treated areas. .. Kelly introduced photographic evidence of a pan fish spawning area near treated vegetation. . Based on its determination of the alJeged facls, the MeA informed the MMCD that it was prepared to file a civil suit in Hennepin County District Court, arguing that the MMCD used "a pesticide in a manner that is incon- sistent with a label or labeling..... However, the MMCD agreed with the findings in the complaint and the remedies outlined by the MDA, end- ing the threat of the civil law suit. MID essence, what happened is that a seasonal employee was spraying off the back of an all-terrain vehicle. He [throttled down to make a turD but did' not turn off the sprayer,W explained Ross Green, public information di-oj rector of the MMCD. "We didn't do it correctly.

Y~~D '-U:I Thursday, March 19, 199* - Chanhassen VlrJager- Page 7 I I Bill proposed requiring advanced warning of spraying In a related action, State Rep. Becky Kelso, . third term DFLer who represents O1anhassen, Prior Lake, Shakopee and Savage, has written a bill that would require the commis- sioner of agriculture to establish roles to provide "potentially affected pet- sons notice of spraying." Her bill would also require that signs be posted in IDd around the treated areas warn- ing against the potential health haz- ards for people and pets exposed to the residual pesticides. Currently, there is no advlDce notification or posting requirements. 111e bill did not receive a hearing in the Agriculture Committee," Kelso said. "However, I am committed to these provisions because I believe people have a right to know when possibly harmful pesticides are being' used." . Kelso indicated that she would either offer a revised version of her bill as ID amendment to another bill, or she would reintroduce it next ses- sion. "The committee chair said that this bill might be controversial and take time to study," Kelso explained. But she asserted that the bill is reason- able and would not cause any undue inconvenience, and consequently would receive a fair hearing. "I know that quite a few people I are sensitive to pesticides. These provisiOlls would address their needs," Kelso noted. - .. ... . According to a consortium of concerned groups, including the Si- erra Oub, Minnesota Herbicide Coa- lition and the Izaak Walton League, at least IS percent of all residents are chemically sensitive, and many people can become seriously ill from ~ sure to mosquito pesticides. These groups have been circulat- ing information sheets which support the prior-notification lUle, the posting of notices and a minimizing of the use of pesticides in public places. Without waiting for passage of Kelso's bill, Todd Hoffman, Chan- hassen Park IDd Recreation Director, has contacted the MMCD to disc:uss advance nOtification before the spray- ing season begins. "We want to bow in advance when they will be spraying in O1m- hassen, " Hoffman said. "We also WIIlt signs posted notiJying citizens of the treated areas." Hoffman noted that the city does not have the resources to monitor treatment in order to guarantee that all spraying regulations are observed without prior notification. "We simply are not in . position to monitor all the other governmental agencies active in Qanbassen. But now that we are aware of these prob- lems, our ears have been perked up," Hoffman observed. HoffmlD said that with proper, advance notification, it would be much easier to have a Community Service Officer or other city employee visible wb en mosquitoes are being treated on public property. Rivkin has insisted that, reprd- less of the legislation, he hu informed the MMCD that he WlDts to be Doti- fied before treatment is done in 0wI- hlSSen and parts of the MiaDetoaka area. e , . --.- . . Why should there be a law to prevent unwanted exposure to mosquito control pesticides? 3/2/91 e The Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (MMCD) tries to reduce mosquito annoyance, its main mission, with a chemical control program costing taxpayers $9-$12 million a year in the 7-county metro area. The MMCD would like people to believe that mosquito control is sa~ as well as effective. They carefully word their stories to avoid giving complete information about the program. No scientific evidence exists that the nuisance mosquito control program reduces annoyance. Mosquitos are not the only victims of such a program. Some of these victims are citizens are concerned about massive pesticide spraying around their homes and parks. Since medical experts say that at least 15% of our population is chemically sensitive, many people can, or have become seriously ill from exposure to mosquito pesticides. The State Department of Natural Resources reports that the 1991 Green Index ranks our state as the fourth worst in terms of pesticide use per capita - 10.8 pounds per person. Mosquito control is part of this toxic brew of pesticides from lawns, houses, gardens, and agriculture. An effective notification system does not exist. In spite of increasing health complaints, innocent bystanders in our parks, homes, and public waters are at risk of exposure when notice is not given about the presence of mosquito pesticides. This includes larvacides spread in the water, but most worrisome is adulticide "fogging" sprayed in the air. This problem should be tackled from two fronts: prevention and management. To prevent exposure to mosquito pesticides in the first place, the MMCD should discontinue their use and focus on a more environmentally benign approach. U pesticides are used, better management through requirements designed to give adequate notice of the presence of these pesticides would minimize the risk to human health. We hope that legislation, HF 1644 & SF 1870, will be enacted to help solve this problem. e What public health threat exists? It is important to understand that $10 million worth of pesticides used each year to reduce mosquito nuisance do not protect us from mosquito-borne diseases. The MMCD allocates only a very small portion of their funds for a mosquito disease prevention program by educating people to remove breeding sites like old tires. Mosquito annoyance is not a public health threat, yet the pesticides used to control them seem to be. In 1991 alone, hundreds of people either witnessed, or were directly exposed to mosquito pesticides applied by the MMCD. Some became ill. All were concerned enough about health effects to call and complain to their park boards, the DNR, and other agencies. This contrasts with only 17 confirmed cases of mosquito-borne diseases in the last 10 years in the metro area. Lick .f Slfetr AssurI8CII Citizens ought to feel secure that mosquito pesticides are tested and safe, yet there is no evidence that all ingredients have been fully tested safe for humans. Their hazardous effects have not been revealed. The MMCD boasts that their pesticides have EPA registration, and therefore should be presumed safe. In fact, EPA registration is not a measure of safety, according to U.S. congressional testimony by the New York State Attorney General. EP A registration merely means that required tests were conducted so the product will "perform its intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on the environment". Registration does not require that full environmental or human health effects studies be done. According to a 1989 EPA ruling which affects thousands of pesticides, active ingredients have to be reassessed, then re-registered with the EP A. The ruling stems from the FIFRA ammendment and from fraudulent tests conducted by Industrial BiD-test Labs, shut down in 1990. Ingredients in pesticides used by the MMCD (resmethrin, permethrin, and piperonyl butoxide) are on the EP A's "B" list requiring reassessment and re-regisration. Because the test data is suspect, the MMCD should suspend the use of these pesticides until re-registration is complete. To do otheJWise may compromise the health and safety of metro area citizens. "Inert" ingredients, which may constitute up to 99.8% of the pesticides, have no adequate health testing. The nature of these inerts are protected by trade secret and need not be disclosed to the EP A or the public. The National Coalition Against Misuse of Pesticides <NCAMP) reported in 1985 that some inert ingredients, including those found in mosquito abatement pesticides, may actually be as toxic, or more so, than the active ingredients. What chemicals used to kill nuisance mosquitos can be harmful to humans? Adultlcldes: Resmethrln.Permethrln Have you ever seen a truck fogging your street or park and wondered what was in the fog? The MMCD uses Scourge and Punt 50S, two types of pyrethroids that supposedly kill adult mosquitos after they've already hatched and become a nuisance. As much as 57% of total acres treated, or 226,000 acres of our public parks and neighborhoods, were treated in 1990 with these for nuisance mosquitos. Massive use of these airborne toxicants also aggravates air pollution because they contain aromatic petroleum distillates. Scourge is used in areas with the highest annoyance complaints. It is an aerial toxicant with resmethrin that is supposed to kill mosquitos flying in the toxified air. Punt 50S has permethrin that is spray-coated on the vegetation at the edges of wooded areas with killing effects up to 14 days. Mosquitos come in contact with the residue as they fly from leaf to leaf. Many other mosquito abatement districts in America as far back as 1982, including Chicago, recognize that adulticides are useless. They say they're not good for people, wildlife, and beneficial insects. As a result, adulticiding has been severely restricted or eliminated from their abatement programs. With its inadequate "notify list", our MMCD recognizes allergic reactions can exist from exposure, but contradicts this by stating adulticides don't pose a threat to human health. NCAMP reports that ~Exposure to pyrethroids can result in contact dermatitis and asthma-like reactions, including runny nose and eyes (resmethrin). The EP A notes that -people, especially children, with a history of allergy or asthma appear to be particularly sensitive...~ There are thousands of people in the metro area with these conditions. Labels of pyrethroids also state they are extremely toxic to fish, birds, and insects and can harm ornamental plants and painted objects. Some pyrethroids are suspected carcinogens. Aerial toxicants can drift into homes with open windows. At 10 pm on July 5,1990, one person and her family in the MacAlester-Groveland neighborhood in St. Paul suffered severe allergic reactions from inhalation exposure to Scourge in this manner. She was infuriated when the MMCD told her, ~we can't spray houses~ and the MMCD did not investigate further. The MMCD did send her fact sheets on Scourge which clearly state, ~ A void breathing vapor or spray mist. A void contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Toxic to fish and birds. ~ In her written testimony, she ~feels lucky to be alive". MMCD personnel wear masks to prevent inhaling the toxicant. Punt 50S sprayed in Lake Ann Park in Chanhassen early June, 1991 left residues which caused a father and son to have headaches and nausea in two confirmed cases due to residue inhalation exposure. The same incident prompted an investigation from the State Department of Agriculture that found the MMCD was in violation of the Minnesota Pesticide Law because they failed to spray according to the label. Punt 50S was illegally sprayed on foliage overlooking fish spawning areas, when the label clearly states it is highly toxic to fish. As a result, the MMCD was fined $1000 and its field staff are being forced to be re-trained. In August 1991, masked MMCD staff aerially toxified the trail area in Sl Paul's Crosby Farm Park at 10 am when schoolchildren were present. The park's naturalist with the class refused to lead the children through the toxified area, for fear they would be exposed to the pesticide. She was also angered there were no warnings and that the MMCD tried to convince her the chemicals weren't harmful. The children observed, "If it wasn't harmful, then why were the sprayers all wearing masks~. lIrvacldes: mind methoprene About 200,000 acres are treated by the MMCD each year with larvacides to kill mosquitos before they hatch. One larvacide applied by helicopter or ground crews is a strain of potent bacteria called bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (BTI). Methoprene, another larvacide, is the active ingredient in briquets cast into wetlands by ground crews, releasing slowly in the water over one summer season. The BTI formulation contains the highest percentage, 99.8%, of inert ingredients of the four major pesticides the MMCD uses. This is troubling because, according to NCAMP, -it is unclear how much of the toxicity (skin sensitization in animals and eye irritation in animals and people) can be ascribed to these 'inert' ingredients". EPA's major environmental concern about some BT formulations is that they can also kill endangered species of butterflies along with earthworms and bees. According to NCAMP, ~the EP A has been critical of an apparent lack of standardization in [BT} product potency... because the percent of active ingredients cannot correspond to the statement on the label". Altosid, the methoprene formulation used by the MMCD, has 95% inert ingredients. Methoprene "can cause moderate eye irritation~, yet this chemical dissipates over the entire summer from millions of briquets in thousands of acres of wetlands, draining into lakes we swim and play in. Data is still incomplete about adverse effects of methoprene. Overdosing is a potential problem because undissolved briquets, with ingredients still active, can keep accunw.lating year after year in the same wetlands. . InIdequlte complllnt dItIlnd f8IPOnll Health-related cases about mosquito pesticide applications are frequently not reported, recorded, or believed by the responsible public agencies like the MMCD or the Department of Agriculture. Citizens who call feel intimidated by MMCD staff into withdrawing their complaints. MMCD staff sometimes tell complainants their concerns do not agree with the scientific literature on file, nor with the advisors of the MMCD. Other tactics include giving false statements about the nature and number of health complaints, how and where pesticides are applied, and that safety is equated with EP A registration. The MMCD imposes a double standard by telling callers to prove the pesticide is unsafe well beyond their means to do so, rather than the MMCD provide assistance or proof to the caller that the pesticide is safe. The MMCD may not offer to tell concerned citizens about their ~notify list". Treatment schedules are not publicly disclosed, nor does the MMCD always comply with individual requests to be notified for specific properties, neighborhoods, or parks. Hundreds of people are unable to get on the ~notify list~ because the public lacks the knowledge to contact the MMCD. The MMCD does not proactively collect data about health complaints from local park boards, the State Health Department, and the DNR that usually receive most of those complaints. In the Lake Ann Park incident, the Department of Agriculture refused to believe a confirmed health complaint, even after the doctor's timely diagnosis of exposure was provided. It is difficult for legitimate health-related complaints to be counted and influence the risk to human health. e WhIt cen WI do? We hope legislation will be amended to provide requirements designed to give adequate notice of the presence of mosquito pesticides. In order to avoid needless exposure and minimize the risk to human health, citizens should have the right to know when mosquito pesticides are used in their area, and have their complaints taken more seriously.

Human Ecology Action League Mosq~itos From page 1 . -, Mosquito district admits to . spraYing near lake Bills aim to change district's operations By Matthew Zlatnik Despite instructions to the contrary, anti-mosquito chemicals were sprayed at water's edge of Lak~ Ann in Chanhassen last s~er. ' At the threat of going to court, the Metropolitan Mosquito Con- trol District (MMCD) admitted last month that it improperly applied pesticides ne8! the lake in northern Chanhassen. The acknowledgement of the violation came after the Min- nesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) investigated a June 12, 1991, complaint by a Chanhassen man. The MMCD paid a $1,000 fme, and an MMCD official said the violation was because of employee error. Eric Rivken of Chanhassen said he and his son became sick after being in Lake Ann Park after the park was sprayed with Punt a chemical used by the MMCo to kill adult mosquitos. Punt is among the chemicals used by the MMCD for nuisance- mosquito control in the seven- county, 3,ooo-square-mile ~etro area. Helicopters and vehicles are . used to spread the pesticides. Chemical briquets are also placed in underwater breeding areas to kill mosquito larvae, and the district provides inf?r- mation about controlling disease-bearing mosquitos by destroying their breeding places. . The district, created in 1958,15 funded by a meu:owi.de property-tax levy. A bill m- troduced by Sen. ,Gen Olsen, IR- MOSQUITOS: To page 6 District 43, is meant to limit the district's taxing authority, and another bill was recently in- troduced in the House to reorganize how the district operates. At Lake Ann Park, an MDA investiga tor found that Punt was sprayed on trees at water's edge and 80 feet from the lake. Sun- fish were spotted in water near the sprayed trees, according to the investigator's report. According to instructions on the Punt label, the pesticide is . "highly toxic" to r18h. According to the U.S. Envirorunental Pr0- tection Agency, Punt should not be used within 100 feet of water, said the MDA report on the incident. "Basically, he'shouldn't ba!~ been where he was," said RoSs; Green, public-information coor- dinator for the MMCD. "We took steps to make sure it wouldn't happen again." As part of the settlement pro-. posed by the MDA, the Mosquito Control District paid a $1,<m fine. 1be employees responsible. for the misapplication were re- quired to make. a' training- session presentation about what went wrong, the possible en- virorunental effects, and how to avoid future mistakes.

He said he and his 7-year-old son became nauseated and had headaches after playing Frisbee in the p4rk on June 12. They went home, and Rivken called the Department of Agriculture, noting that he had seen tree leaves with a shiny substance on them.

Bat houses have been used successfully in Europe for a vari~ty of species. The house design on the back of this sheet was developed for conditions in Minnesota by Earl Johnson of Detroit Lakes, MN. The ab- sence of a floor makes this house less attractive to white- footed deer mice. which can be a problem throughout Minne- sota. The exact size and shape are not important except that the entry space(s) should never be smaller than 3/4 inch or larger than 1 inch. Regardless of the plan used. all inner sur- faces must be rough enough to allow the bats to climb with ease. Young bats grow best when shelter temperatures are main- tained in the 80-90 F range. For this reason maternity colo- nies most commonly use houses which provide this temperature range yet do not exceed 90 F. Houses should be tightly constructed or caulked to prevent undesirable ventilation. Europeans often cover bat houses with tar paper to increase solar energy absorp- tion and provide insulation in lower temperatures. Construct- ing a house two feet tall allows the bats to move up and down to find temperatures more to their liking. A~hough paint or varnish may increase structure longevity, bats may be repelled until the house is well cured. Bat houses should be se- curely fastened to a tree or building roughly 10-15 feet above ground, preferably open to the morning sun yet shaded in the afternoon. Male bats do not live with the females whlle young are being reared. The male bats may be attracted to a second house placed in a shel- tered, similar location. Most bats seem to be attracted to sites somewhat protected from wind. It is important to note that bats can live only where local food supplies are adequate. For this reason, most bat colo- nies are found near rivers, lakes, bogs or marshes where insect populations are high. The closer bat houses are to such habitats, the greater the probability of being occupied. Those located more than a half mile from insect producing habi- tats have a greatly reduced probability of being occupied. Sometimes bats will occupy a bat house within a few weeks. Often however, bats require a year or two to find a new house. Chances of early occupancy probably will be increased if houses are hung before the last week of July when young bats are starting to fly and explore. Since the use of bat houses is quite new in the USA and in Minnesota, there is much to learn about local bat prefer- ences. Reporting your suc- cesses and failures in attracting bats to your houses could greatly add to bat knowledge. Information can be received by writing: BAT CONSERVATION INTERNATIONAL P.O.

Case files. from 1988 reporting pesticide exp0- sure to humans were identified in cooperation with the Minnesota Cen- ter for Health Statistics. Data analy- sis was conducted by computer using SAS statistical package. Of the 1,428 case files indicating pesticide as the primary substance of exposure to Minnesota residents, a mean age of 5 years (range, one month to 85 years) was identified; 50 pcra::nt of all cases were below age 3 years. Males accounted for 1.3 times as many cases as females. Insecticide was identified in the largest percentage of case files (74 percent) followed by herbicide (l2 percent), rodenticide (11 percent) and fungicide-nonmedicinaJ (3 per- cent). Ingestion was the most com- mon route of exposure; 8S percent of all calls originated from a residence. While insecticides are still the most common types of pesticide call, herbicide has surpassed insecticide in production and sales in the US. In this study, herbicide type exposure calls present a much different picture than other pesticide types. The usefulness of poison control centers for examination of pesticide poisoning is explored.

Pesticide Poisoning SUlVeillance through Regional Poison Control Centers Debra Kay Olson, RN, MPH, Lynn Sa%, Paul Gunderson, PhD, and Leo Sioris, PhmmD Introduction Pesticides represent a Jarge group of chemicals which in general usage are de- scribed in tcnns of the organism they are intended to kill.!-3 As the use of these chemicals has unfolded, some disquieting phenomena have been observed. A 1984-85 Nebraska study found an annual incidence rate of pesticide-related illness of 1.35 cases per 10,OOJ population.. Lym- phoma and leukemia have been associ- ated with higher death rates among Mid- western farmers in regions of high pesticide use5.6 and Reeves' reponed 15 children ages 2 to 17 years as having blood dyscrasias developed shonly after inhala- tion exposure to household insecticides. Pesticides account for a small but impor- tant number of acute human poisonings, particularly in a state with substantial use of pesticides in both rural and urban areas, such as Minnesota.1.9 Methods The purpose of this study was to de- scnbe pesticide exposure in the 1988 pap- ulation of callers to Minnesota Regional Poison Control Centers located at Henne- pin County Medical Center and SL Paul- Ramsey Medical Center. Centers docu- ment exposure data utilizing tbe Cooperative Poison Center Repon Form as designed by the American Association of Poison Control Centers (AAPCC). Data from these report forms were processed through each Center's computer system and sent to the AAPCC's national data collection project in Denver, Colorado. Data tapes containing all of the 1988 data for each Regional Center were then re- turned to the Minnesota Center for Health Statistics (MCiS) for collation, format- ting, and analysis. In cooperation with the MCiS all , Minnesota resident case files from 1988 reporting pesticide exposure to humans were identified_ All calls regarding human contact with a chemical coded by the AAPCC to be a herbicide, insecticide, r0- denticide, or fungicide (nonmedicinal) were selected. A total of 2,209 calls were classified by the AAPCC system as pes- ticide exposure calls for Minnesota in 1988,4.3 percent of all human exposure calls to Minnesota. Of these calls, 1,428 identified pesticides as the primary sub- stance and 31 call files identified pesticides as a secondary substance of human ~ sure to Minnesota residents. The remain- ing 750 calls were incomplete data files or lacked the designation as a Minnesota res- ident, thus were not available for second- ary analysis. The following descriptive analysis applies to the 1,428 call files indicating pes- ticide as the primary substance of expc> sure to Minnesota residents in 1988. These data were derived from self-reponed in- formation. The use of poison control caller files imposes the following limitations upon the data: an unknown number of pesticide exposure events may occur for which no call was made; voluntaIy report- ing of data via telephone is verified only by e Address reprint requests to Debra Kay Olson.

Pesticide exposure calls by two-hour interval present a bimodal distribution peaking between 10:00 am and 11:00 am (190 calls, 13 percent) and 6:00 pm and 7:00 pm (251 calls, 18 percent). Calls by two-bour interval by pesticide type show a similar bimodal distnbution for each spe- cific type of pesticide. The largest percent of pesticide-related calls occur in the months of May (16 percent), July (15 per- cent), and August (13 percent) (Table 3). Thirty-three percent of the calls (468 calls) were documented as symptomatic. Two hundred eighty-eight of these were classified as symptomatic related to the pesticide exposure. By pesticide type, r0- denticide calls reported the least number (3 percent) of calls as symptomatic related to the exposure. Ninety-nine percent of all calls were associated with acute exposures. The ma- jority of calls were managed at a non- health care facility (86 percent) while 12 percent were either managed at (107 calls) or referred to (69 calls) a health care facil- ity. More fungicide cases (93 percent) were managed at a non-health care facility (e.g. managed at home) than any other pesticide type.

An actual poison- ing event can only be verified through re- view of medical outcome. Results Insecticide was identified in the larg- est percentage of case files for Minnesota (1,060 cases, 74 percent) followed by her- bicide (168 cases, 12 percent), rodenticide (155 cases, 11 percent), and fungicide- nonmedicinal (45 cases, 3 percent). Of the insecticide cases, those containing organo- phosphates (alone or in combination) were reported most often (Table 1). Carbamates were reported in 10 cases of fungicide exposure. Of the re- maining fungicide cases, 19 were associ- ated with phthalimide, three with non- mercurial fungicides, and 13 unknown! other. Herbicide cases were most fre- quently associated with 2,4-0 (2,4-dichlo- rophenoxyacetic acid) or 2,4,s-T (2,4,5- trichJorophenoxyacetic acid) (78 cases. 46 percent) and triazine herbicides (10 cases, June 1991, Vol. 81, No.6 6 percent). Oiquat was associated with 13 cases, carbamate with four cases, and other or unknown with 63 cases. Rodenticide exposure calls were pri- marily associated with anticoagulant types (128 cases, 83 percent). Sttychnine was associated with three rodenticide ex- posure calls and the remaining 24 roden- ticide cases were other/unknown. Of the 1,428 cases, a mean age of 5 years (range, one month to 8S years) was identified; 50 percent of all calls were re- garding children under the age of 3 years (Table 2). The 1~17 years category ac- counted for the least number of cases overall. The 18+ years old category ac- counted for 53 percent of all herbicide- related calls. Male to female ratio was 1.3:1 :: 0.2 for aU pesticide-related calls. as wen as for individual pesticide types, except herbi- cides, where males represented twice the number of cases as females. Ninety-nine percent of all pesticide calls were reported as unintentional poi- sonings. General calls (not otherwise specified) accounted for 94 percent (1,323 calls) of the unintentional calls while 0c- cupational-related exposure made up 4 percent (62 caJls). Calls originating from a residence ac- counted for 8S percent of all pesticide poi- soning calls. Health care facilities ac- counted for 11 percent and work place for 3 percent. Discussion Since 1986, pesticides have ac- counted for approximately 4.3 percent of all human exposure caJls reported to Min- nesota Regional Poison Centers. This is exmsistent with the percent of calls ~ ciated with pesticides nationally as re- ported by the AAPCC,I As such, the state data reported here represent but a Sma11 portion of a much larger national picture. Over the past 20 years in the US, organochlorine insecticides have lost fa- vor because of their long-term health ef- fects and petSistencc in the environment and have been surpassed in use by orga- nophosphates and carbamates.1o Acute toxicity related to organophosphate pesti- cides is usually of rapid onset thus symp- toms can be more readily associated with acute exposure to this pesticide type. It is thus not unreasonable that exposure to or- ganophosphate insecticides make up the greatest percent of caJls (22 percent) in this study. This is also consistent with a Ne- braska study where 25 percent of the emergency room visits and bospitaliza- American Journal of Public Health 7St . .

Although they are based on the chemical structure and biological activity of pyrethrum, an extract from plants In the genus Chrysanthemum, the development of synthetic pyre- throids has involved extensive chemical modifications to make compounds that are more toxic and less rapidly degraded by light. "The Chemistry, Development, and Economics of Synthetic Pyrethroids" (JPR 10(2):41-44) summarizes their chemical structures, history of de- velopment, and usage in the United States and internationally; this article describes the pyrethroids' toxicity to humans and other animals as well as their residues In food and their per- sistence in soils and water. .hat Determines the Toxicity of a Synthetic Pyrethroid? Pyrethroid toxicity is highly de- pendent on stereochemistry, the three dimensional configuration of the molecule. Each isomer (mol- ecules consisting of the same atoms, but with different stereochemistry) has its own toxicity. Some pyre- throids have as many as eight differ- ent isomers and there are several different types. For example, maily pyrethroids have pairs of isomers with diHerent geometries, referred to as the cis and the trans isomers. Fig- ure 1 Illustrates the cis and trans iso- mers of permethrin. The cis isomer is generally more toxic than the trans Doria Mue/ler-Beilschmidt is tile infor. mation services coordinator at tIle NOl1h American regional center of the Pesti- cide Action Network International (PAN). i North America; 965 Mission Street, e 514; San Francisco, 0\ 94103; 5) 541-9140. 32 Isomer. Acute toxicity of a mixture of two isomers depends on the ratio of the amounts of the two Isomers In the formulation. For example. the female rat acute oral LDSO* of permethrin increases from 224 milligrams of the pyrethrold per kilogram of body weight (mg,lkg) to 6000 mg,lkg as the proportion of the trans isomer in- creases from 20 percent to 80 percent (see Figure 2). Most commercial formulations have a fixed Isomeric ratio. Formula- tions made of a single isomer (delta- methrln, for example) are likely to be much more toxic than those with four to eight isomers.2 Route of exposure is critical in as- sessing the acute toxic potential of a pyrethroid. Based on laboratory tests with experimental animals, introduc- tion of the compound Into the brain is most toxic, followed by Introduc- tion Into the blood vessels, Intro- ductlonlnto the gut (intraperitoneal · wso Is the amount of a chemical that will kill 50 percent of a population of test animals.

NO.3 30:70 ihe gut, skin, and lung tissue.3 Metabolites can also have an ef- fect on the toxicity of a pyrethrold. The mouse Intraperitoneal LDSO of trans-resmethrln Is greater than 1500 mg/kg of body weight; it Is over ten times less acutely toxic than three of Its metabolites wiLh LDsos that range from 46 to 98 mg/!<g.4 The common pyrethrold metabolite 3-phenoxy- benzoic acid may be significantly more toxic than the parent pyre- throid.5 Deltamethrin, which Is a pri- mary metabolite of tralomethrin (Scout), has a higher acute toxicity than its parent compound. Various other factors influence the toxicity of pyrethrolds. Preexisting health conditions, such as respira- tory or skin problems, can exacer- bate the toxic eClect of some pyre- throlds In humans.6.8 Also, more highly halogenated pyrethrolds (those containing chlorine, bromine, or flourine), such as flucythrinate and tefluthrin, tend to be more toxic to mammals than those that are less halogenated, such as permethrin and cyfluthrin. The acute toxicities of some pyrethroids differ for male and female rats and mice.2 Diet can also have an eClect on the toxicity of py_ rethroids.9 DOT and pyrethroids are some of the few insecticides with toxicities that increase at lower tem- peratures.3,IO "Inert" Ingredients and Synergists Since the technical (chemically pure) grade of a pyrethroid is usually formulated (mixed with carriers, sol- vents, etc.) for use in commercial pest control, the toxicity of these other ingredients must be taken into consideration when assessing the toxicity of a formulated product. For example, fenvalerate is much less toxic to mice than the formulated product, Pydrin.ll A ten-fold differ- ence in toxicity between formulations with the same active ingredient, but with different carriers, can be seen in some cases. Pyrethroid products formulated as emulsifiable concen- trates (oil based formulations) usu- ally have higher acute oral LOS Os (are less toxic) in rats than wettable powder (aqueous) formulations.3 "Inert" (secret In redients and contammants can a so a ect the tox- icitv of a ovrethroid formulation. e~- p-ecially since the formulated product Jften contains more "inert" ingredients and an oxygen atom. Other synergists (piperonyl butoxide and sulfoxide) block the mixed function oxldases, enzymes which oxidize nnd detoxify a wide variety of compounds.10,16 Si- multaneous exposure to pyrcthrolds and organophosphates has also been shown to increase the inhibition by the organophosplHltes of cholinest- erase, an enzyme In the nervous sys- temP Acute Toxicity to Mammals Acute oral toxicity to mammals varies widely among the pyrethroids. In general, they are less acutely toxic than the organophosphate, carbam- ate, and organochlorine pesticides. Exceptions Include the pyrelhrolds showing the highest acute oral toxicities: esfenvalerate (Asana), deltamethrln, blfenthrln, tefluthrln, f1ucythrinate, cyhnlothrln (Karate), and fenpropathrln. All of these pes- ticides belong to the third generation of pyrethrolds (JPR 10(2):43), those . containing a cyano group (a carbon atom and a nitrogen atom bonded together). Acute and subacute studies have shown that the main effecls of pyre- throlds are neurotoxicity at high doses and liver hypertrophy (en- largement of the Iiver).3.l!! If death does not occur, these changes have been shown to be reversible. In fact, the capacity for recovery from the toxic etlects seems to be a unique characteristic of pyrethroid poison- ing in mammals.3 Man of the pyrethroids can be mildly to severe y Irrltatmg to t le skin and eyes.3;'20.22 Some pyre- throids also cause a sensitization of facial skin which has been observed to be reverslble.J The dermal (skin) toxicity of some pyrethroid formula- tions is greater than that of the tech- nical grade.23 Adverse skin etlects were not measured in tests on nonhuman animals.3.21 Chronic and Subchronic Toxicity Simultaneous contact with sub- The most notable non-cancerous stances--that mhibit detoxificatiQn subchronic and chronic etlects of .J)rocesses. called synerS!ists, can In- pyrethroid insecticides on mammals crease -the. acute. toxic effects of a__ are signs of acute toxicity which are _. r.ethroid. .High levels of some syn- usually temporary and di~jnish con- erglsts organophosphorus and car- siderably if the chronic exposure bamate compounds) can block es- continues. terases, enzymes that degrade pyre- Other chronic effects arc reduc- throids by cleaving the molecule at tion In the growth rate of test alli- the double bond between a carbon mals, liver enlargement, and an in- "S everal 'inerts' in pyrethroid formulations used in the U.S. are known or suspected carcinogens (such as silica, trim ethyl- benzenes, and ethyl benzene), or are chemicals which depress the central nervous system (such as xylenes).

The most sensitive organisms are surface-dwelling Insects, mayfly nymphs and some of the larger crus- taceans; zooplankton and benthic (bottom-dwelllng) organisms are also significantly affected by pyrethrolds. Even at low (non-lethal) concentra- tions, there are significant behavioral changes In aquatic invertebrates, e.g., In their abl1lty to respond to tactile stimuli, which may affect their sur. vival. Lobster and shrimp are sus- ceptible to all pyrethrolds.5.3S Pyrethroids are hiahly toxic to most fish; about 40 percent of fne LeSO values for fish are less than 1.0 ppb. Oeltamethrln Is one of the most toxic; allethrin Is one of the least toxic; and cypermelhrln, permethrln and fenvalerate are Intermediately toxic. EmulsUiable concentrate for- mulations. of pyrethrolds are usually two to nine times more toxic than the technical grode, most likely due to synergistic Interactlons.3s Res- methrin synerglzed with plperonyl butoxide Is much more toxic to the white sucker fish than Is the techni- cal grade product.31 Pyrethrolds are more toxic to fish allowcr tempera- tures and appear to be more toxic to smaller fish than larger fish.37 Field studies Indicate that pyre- throids are more toxic to fish in laboratory studies than In natural waters because pyrethroids adhere Table I Bioaccumulation Factors OrganJam Bloaccumulatlon RcIerence Facto"- ~.. ~ cp molluscb. 6302 Daphnlab 334 5 fathead minnow 100-3300 37 f1shb 125 5 molluscb 612 5 Daphnlab 1234 5 f1shb 1148 5 mollusc!' 3338 5 Daphnlab 1160 5 snail 11 6-356 3S salmon 4G-2oo 3S carp 24-122 7 minnow 50 3S crustacean 68-683 35 fathead minnow 3000-5000 35 Pyrelhrold cypermethrln lenvalerale flucythrinate · The ratlo of the pyrethrold concentratlon In the animal to the concenlratlon In the water In which the anlmalllves. b Model predictions.

Nevertheless, sublethal effects of pyrethrolds on fish Include damage to gills and behavioral changes. Be- cause they are highly lipophilic (at- tracted to the non-water soluble components of cells), pyrethrolds are likely to be strongly absorbed by the gl11s, even from water containing low levels of pyrethroids (see Table 1).35 Pyrethrolds can Indirectly aUect fish due to diminished and contami- nated food supplies.5.34.36 Another indirect effect of pyrethrold con- tamination of stili waters is massive increases of a green filamentous alga, which can lead to a progressi.ye re- duction of dissolved oxygen.S.38 Though less tolerant than most mammals, amphibians and molluscs are much more tolerant of pyre- throids than fish and crustacea.s Effects on other Non-target Organisms: Terrestrial Invertebrates Pyrethroids are toxic to insects wVhether the Insects are beneficials :>r pests; they Initially cause knock- jown (the inability of the Insect to ,naintain Its normal position) fol- (owed by recovery or death.

Residues in Food and Water California and U.S. pesticide moni- toring programs between 1982 and 1985 found permethrin residues on cabbage, lettuce, and tomatoes:t3 U:S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) monitoring between 1985 and 1990 consistently found permethrin, fenvalerate, and cypermethrln resi- dues in over 45 diUerent vegetable, fruit, and meat products. Up to 6 parts per million (ppm) permethrin were regularly found on leafy veg- et&lbles such as spinach, lettuce, kale, collards, and turnip greens.41 The maximum residue level set by the FDA for permethrin on leafy veg- etable is 20 ppm.4S Tolerance levels JOURNAL OF PESTJCIDE REFORM I FAll 1990 toxic non.toxlc highly toxic: highly toxic Pyrethroid Mode of Action Like DOT and many other In- secticides, naturally occurring py- rethrins and the synthetic pyre- throids are nerve poisons. Pyre- throids' principal mechanism of action is believed to be disruption of the permeability of nerve mem- branes to sodium atoms. The site of action is not known, but pyre- throids and DOT probably act on both the central (the brain and spinal chord) and the peripheral nervous system (nerves in other parts of the body). Other major groups of Insecticides (carbam- ates and organophosphates, for example) are nerve poisons but do not act on the peripheral nervous system.3.tS e (legal limits) have not yet been es- tablished for pyrethroid residues on many of these products. Recently, FDA has reported levels of fluvalinate in honey 22 times higher than tlte established toler- ances.4G One stydy found that resi- e 35 ,~ dues (10-20 percent oC the amount · Inlti'ally applied) of cy(Juthrln, deltamethrln, cypermethrln, fen- r valerate, and permethrln remain ef- fective for 11 long period of time In grains (over 10 months), with' mini- mal losses even after milling and baldng.H _ There is no evidence of pyrethrold residues In groundwater In the U.S. or In Europe as a result of agrIcul- tural use. Fate in Plants, Soil and Water In the environment, pyrethroids are usually degraded by one or more biotic and abiotic processes: meta- bolic degradation by pla[lis, animals, and microorganisms and degradation by light (photolYSIS). There are three main routes of degradation by light In pyrethrolds: ester cleavage (split- ting the molecule where a carbon atom and an oxygen atom are con- nected with a double bond), reduc- tive dehalogcnatlon (removal of chlorine, flourine, or bromine atoms), and isomerization (conversion from one Isomer to another). A main product of pyrethroid photolysis Is 3-phenoxybenzoic acid.S Degradation of pyrethroids In the soil Is mostly by chemical and mi- crobial action. The rate of degrada- tion depends on the pyrethroid, soil ee, climate, the species of mIcrobes sent, and the size of their popula- tions. .

Both can accumulate to levels ten times over the Initial concentration if they are repeatedly applied In a single season at rates higher than the rate at which they are degraded.s Since pyrethroids are highly li- pophilic, they adhere strongly to any organic matter In water, are easily absorbed into the waxy layer of plants, and are strongly adsorbed by soil particles.s,4s Once adsorbed, py- rethroids are relatively immobile; leaching through the soli into groundwater Is improbable and translocation through a plant Is un- common.s Except for tefluthrln, most pyrethrolds will stay In the top one to four inches of soil after field appll- catlons.S,49.SO However, several prin- cipal pyrethrold degradation prod- ucts (3-phenoxybenzoic acid and dichlorovlnyl acid, for example) ieach readlly.S,25 Pyrethroids are also removed from the site of application by drift, soli erosion, and volatilization (evapora- tion).

The half-life (time required for 50 percent of a compound to de- grade) of pyrethroids in soils ranges from 1 day to 16 weeks. Pyrethroids that are not light-stable usually de- grade much more quickly than those that are light-stable, and degradation is usually much faster In aerobic (oxygen-cont'ainlng) soils than anaerobic (not oxygen-containing) soils.S1 Missing Da.ta There are sl nlficant data a s for the 0 er. ess oerslstent ovrethroi ~ such as allethrin, ,esm~thr'n and phenothrin, as well as for pyrethrins.

I checked back to 1959 and there were no cases listed for Carver County but for many of the years the total number of cases was given and no breakdown by counties. Both humans and equine are susceptible to the WE virus; however, (equine cases appear two to three weeks before human cases. Therefore, the unvaccinated equine population is an excellent sentinel for human diseases. That is why each year we request that _ veterinary practitioners report to our office any cases of ,., suspected encephalitis cases. Acute serum samples should be drawn immediately and a convalescent serum in 14-21 days. These reports are then passed on to the Minnesota Department of Health. A large majority of horseowners have been vaccinating their animals for a number of years, particularly in heavily populated horse areas where there is a lot of expensive breeding stock. Dr. Keith Friendshuh (296-3428) will be back in the office on July 6th so please feel free to contact him if you have any further questions. Sincerely, ~ ~-r7b~~J Sandra Ives Board of Animal Health si/enc. e PRIl\'TED O~ RECYCLED PAPER AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER ~ e .- Z <t U :J (L a.. <( e ~ ~ w .- - (/) e PRC DATE: July 28, 1992 CC DATE: HOFFMAN:k M.

Park and Recreation Commission July 23, 1992 Page 2 , e BACKGROUND Oak Ponds/Oak Hill, Lotus Realty has submitted an application for Concept Review of a Planned Unit Development involving a total of 240 multi-family units. The project consists of fIfteen unit buildings which will be renter occupied, and nine buildings of owner occupied housing. The plan calls for a central clubhouse area including a swimming pool and a small playground area. This property was the site of a multi-family housing proposal in 1989. At that time, the project was reviewed on a number of occasions by the Park and Recreation Commission and a number of park alternatives were addressed including the dedication of a fIve acre neighborhood park. The project was withdrawn by the developer prior to the fmal plan approval phase. The proposed development raises several issues that need to be addressed by the Park and Recreation Commission. They include: 1. Park dedication requirements. 2. Trail requirements. 3. Park dedication credits for privately supplied recreational facilities. e Park Dedication The first decision involves the question of requiring land dedication versus acceptance of cash in lieu of land dedication requirements. According to Chanhassen ordinance, neighborhood parks are to be supplied at the rate of one acre per 75 people. At 240 units, the proposed project creates a total land demand of 9.6 acres. The key to addressing the issue of land versus cash dedication is the availability of existing recreation facilities to meet anticipated needs. According to the Chanhassen Comprehensive Plan, neighborhood parks have a normal service area of 1/4 to 1 mile. In the vicinity of the proposed project, Chanhassen has fIve existing parks within 2/3 of a mile of the site. They include Lake Ann Park (3500'), City Center Park (1500'), Chanhassen Pond (2500'), Meadow Green Park (3,500') and Lake Susan Park (3500'). From the perspective of location, these parks can easily accommodate the neighborhood park needs of .the proposed project. All of these sites will be accessible to Oak Ponds/Oak Hill residents via the existing and planned trail system. Therefore, it is unnecessary to consider the acquisition of additional park land to serve the planned development. Chanhassen 's current park dedication requirement is $440 per unit. Therefore, the project's 240 units generate a total park fee of $105,600. e r e Park and Recreation Commission July 23, 1992 Page 3 Trail Requirements The second issue pertains to trails. Chanhassen's trail plan shows an off-street trail along Powers Boulevard. When the previous project was reviewed in 1989, this trail was to be accommodated within a new 20 foot easement along Powers Boulevard. Trail construction in this area will be difficult due to the width of the existing right-of-way and the adjacent topography which drops sharply to the east. Despite this fact, this segment is an important link in Chanhassen's overall trail system. Construction of the trail will require close coordination with Carver County. The developer will be responsible for estimating the cost of this trail segment and for its construction. Upon submitting a cost estimate, it will be verified and a recommendation will be forwarded to the City Council to reduce trail dedication fees accordingly. e The proposed plan calls for a six foot wide bituminous trail running from Powers Boulevard on the west to Kerber Boulevard on the east. The trail is located along the north side of the existing stand of oak trees which will be preserved as part of the development. The construction of this trail section is not being advocated. Although it would be a beautiful addition to the city's trail system, the trail dedication requirements of this PUD will likely only provide the necessary funding for the more important Powers Boulevard trail. The plan also calls for a sidewalk along the new dedicated street that passes through the central portion of the project. An additional sidewalk connection is shown linking the rental units on the north side of the street to the proposed sidewalk. Oak Ponds/Oak Hill has a trail dedication requirement of $35,280 based on the current fee of $147 per unit. Since the Powers Boulevard trail is an important part of the overall trail system, the City should require the developer to construct this trail segment in exchange for the corresponding reduction in trail dedication fees. Park Dedication Credits Park dedication credits involve the issuance of full or partial credit for the construction of private recreational facilities. To the degree that it is applicable, park dedication fees could be reduced by an amount representative of expenditures that would otherwise need to have been made by the City to provide recreational facilities. Oak Ponds/Oak Hill includes a swimming pool and playground area. Are these facilities worthy of park credits? In the case of the swimming pool, it is an attractive amenity for the project's residents. It is not, however, a normal component of a neighborhood park in Chanhassen. Chanhassen residents currently have the opportunity to swim at a supervised beach at Lake Ann Park. Therefore, the inclusion of a private swimming pool does not have a direct impact on City supplied recreational facilities and therefore, is not a likely candidate for park credits. e Park and Recreation Commission July 23, 1992 Page 4 e A playground is also proposed as part of the site plan. Because of the density of the project, a playground is appropriate, particularly one which serves the needs of younger children. Since the playground is located in open space that is required as part of the PUD, a park credit for the land that it occupies is inappropriate. A credit for supplying the actual equipment also has no merit. Play equipment is commonly supplied on a private basis to accommodate the daily needs of children. Single family homes and multi-family developments commonly have a swing set or play structure in the back yard. Is Oak Ponds/Oak Hill any different? The developer is to be commended for including a playground area in the site plan, however, it is not a candidate for park credit. Recommendation Based on the preceding comments, staff recommends that the Chanhassen Park and Recreation Commission recommend that: 1. The City accept the full park dedication amount of $105,600 in lieu of land dedication. 2. The developer of Oak Ponds/Oak Hill supply a 20 foot easement along Powers Boulevard and construct an 8 foot wide bituminous trail. Trail dedication fees should be reduced to offset the expenditure for the trail construction. e 3. The inclusion of the private swimming pool and playground area do not diminish the need for community supplied recreational facilities, therefore, no park credit will be given for the provision of these items.

This figure represents 65.96% of lhe $145,000 budgeted for park and trail development in 1992. This puts the 410 Park Acqui.sition and Development Fund 15.96% ahead with 50% of the year expired. Last year at this time, the fund was behind by 10.12%. At the end of the last quarter, Fund 410 revenues totalled $26,611.00. The significant increase in revenues realized in the second quarter were the result of the development of the Market Square Shopping Center, the Americana Bank, Mail Source, and a strong single family housing market. In regard to expenditures, the department has been very conservative to date, year to date expenditures total $8,748.93, representing 6.03% of budgeted expenditures, compared with 71.65% at this time last year. A carry over of equipment from last year allowed expenditures to be delayed in 1992 until this backlog of work is completed. With that work now nearing completion, the process of purchasing equipment detailed in the 1992 CIP has begun. However, as will be discussed in the next report (Item 6), total expected expenditures will be significantly less than budgeted expenditures. Detailed Budget Report. Fund 410.

The new ballfields at Lake Ann Park, Fields 4, 5, and 6 and the soccer field, are not in reasonable condition for play. This is the second full year of activities on the fields since they became active. A short chronology of their development follows: 1987- 1988 Referendum passes. Plan for development of fields. 1989 Construction partially complete. Fall seeding of fields occur (drought year). Winter, 1989 Very little snow cover. All seed and a high volume of soil is blown from fields. Spring, 1990 Erosion occurs. Summer, 1990 Fields are re-graded and seeded. Drought conditions experienced and germination does not occur. Fall, 1990 Fields are seeded for a third time. Spring, 1991 to Present Play begins on. all fields. All comments received on field conditions have been negative. Over the past two years is was very evident that the new fields were not acceptable for recreational play. Home and visiting players have been forced to play on the fields as there are no alternatives. The complaint level has been extreme. Coaches and players routinely call or stop by the department to discuss the situation. Efforts through over-seeding and slit seeding, fertilization and aerification have been undertaken in an attempt to remedy the situation. During ft \.J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER "f Park and Recreation Commission July 23, 1992 Page 2 ~ I , e this time period, the fields have had the benefit of two years of very good growing conditions, but have not responded. Dale Gregory, Park Foreman, and I upon completing these efforts which included three re-seeding operations since the spring of 1990, realized the situation needed expert attention. Two individual turf professionals were summoned to evaluate the field conditions. Both reports are attached for your review. Mr. Belkengren of Turf Supply Company advocated irrigation the fust minute he stepped onto the fields. When informed that irrigation was not being considered at the time, he formulated the recommendation detailed in his report. The annual cost of this program, excluding of fertilizer, is $7,578.00. As noted in the report, this program provides no guarantee without an irrigation system. Mr. John Hopko of Professional Turf Specialists and Renovation was more direct. Without irrigation, he will not recommend any other action as, in his opinion, the efforts would prove fruitless. Mr. Hopko's reasons for this stance are documented in his report. Mr. Hopko's credentials are very thorough, and was recommended to me as one of the top turf management professionals in the state. As Park and Recreation Commissioners, you may be hearing rumblings about the playing conditions of the new fields at Lake Ann Park. As a staff member, I hear from coaches, players, parents, and spectators on a weekly basis. Entire soccer teams and their parents plotted to call me, or stop by the office on a single day, and most carried through with their plan. The Soccer .. Association and other individuals involved in sporting activities have volunteered to help in any ., way in an attempt to improve field conditions. As coordinator of the Park and Recreation Department, I am disappointed that the initial construction process did not go better, disappointed that we must now force teams to play on unfit fields, embarrassed because of this, and worried about our liability. I have not arranged for the Council Chambers to be filled with players, coaches, parents, spectators, turf specialists, and attorneys from which you could receive testimonials. However, I encourage all of you to visit the fields and talk to people you know that use them. This report may come as a shock, but of the alternatives available, irrigation is the only viable one and the only one with a guarantee. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Park and Recreation Commission recommend that the City Council authorize a 1992 Park Acquisition and Development Capital Improvement Program budget amendment to fund the installation of an irrigation system at Lake Ann Park for seven ballfields and spectator areas in an amount not to exceed $60,000.00. This amount is to include all design and construction contracts. Note: The possibility of irrigating the ballfields is only now available due to the installation of the water line servicing the park shelter. It is hoped that the timing of this amendment would allow for fall construction. The attached current expenditure predictions for the 1992 CIP demonstrate that this project can be carried out under the current year's CIP. I, too, as some commissioners might agree, would prefer to invest this money in other ways. But I'm left with no alternatives other than to make this recommendation. e ~ 1 . . e e Turf Supply Company Dale Gregory City of Chanhassen Parks 690 Coulter Drive Chanhassen, MN 55317 June 12, 1992 Dear Dale, Here is a program that I feel you should follow to restore some vigor and relieve some of the compaction at the Lake Ann Athletic complex. Until I can look at the soil reports, I will not make any recommendations as to a fertilizer program. As you are probably aware of, there is a lot of concern for the safety of the people using park property. Hard, compacted and uneven playing surfaces are hazardous to players, and can result in all sorts of legal problems. I have dealt with many problems such as yours, and have had good success when the program is followed. The first application that should be made is with Noburn Soil Wetting agent. This product should be applied at an initial rate of 12 oz. per 1000 sq.ft., and should be followed up in 30 to 45 day intervals with an application of 6 oz. per 1000 sq. ft. to the complete complex. The wetting agent will help to relieve surface tension in the soil profile, and allow water to penetrate deeper into the soil and promote deeper rooting. The Noburn can be used as often as necessary, whenever the soil does not seem to be taking water, and to make more efficient use of the water that is available. Iron Roots should also be applied at the rate of 1 gallon per acre, three times this year, approximately on 30 40 day intervals. Iron Roots will help establish a more fibrous and deep root system, plus help give the plants better color. Iron Roots will give you greater stress tolerance from drought and heat. These applications should be followed up each year as per the tech sheet enclosed. After the first good rain, a good core tine aerification should be done taking at least 25 plugs per square foot. The complete field should then be top dressed with Turface soil amendment. Turface will not compact, and will help to eliminate some of the compaction and help to interface the top soil and clay base. Turface should be put down at minimum, 4 tons per acre as a top dress, and drug into the aerification holes. Turface is available in bulk truckload quantities of approximately 25 tons or on pallets of 40 bags or 1 ton each. Bulk orders will be shipped direct and are cheaper than the bagged product. This should be followed up each of the next 3 or 4 years with about 2 tons per acre after core aerifying. When we get your soil reports back, we can then design a fertilizer program that will benefit the turf by putting down the essential nutrients that promote a good stand of turf. Any program that we establish, would be greatly enhanced with an irrigation program. All fertilizers and control products will work better if they are watered into the soil. I am enclosing sheets that explain the products that I have mentioned. Please take time to read them over and let me know if there are any questions that have not been answered. I look forward to working with you in the future and wish you success in building a better and safer athletic field.

HOPKO Turf Specialist 24144 172nd Street Big Lake, MN 55309 July 21, 1992 City of Chanhassen Attention: ~odd Hoffman Park and Recreation Coordinator 690 Coulter Drive P.O. Box 147 Chanhassen, MN 55317 Dear Todd: The following report is an analysis of my observations concerning the turf conditions at various park sites. Certain concerns need to be addressed, and hopefully suggestions can become reality. Soil: All good turf and sports turf start with the proper soil conditions. Yours is less than desirable; it tends to be very compacted, hard when dry, marginal at best when it comes to drainage. Clay content in the ground explains these conditions. Ideally, on athletic fields today, we use high sand content soils. This improves drainage and compaction problems are less severe. Your turf becomes a liability when it totally dries out because of hardness, and the field also becomes a liability when it receives excessive moisture. Playability becomes slippery and very damaging to the turf. Soil Nutrition: This situation compounds the soil problem that you have. After reviewing the soil test data you sent me, the lack of phosphorus and potassium was evident, just as we discussed the day I visited. I suspect that when the fields were constructed, subsoil material was used with little topsoil being available or used. Subsoils tend to be very free of nutrients and make growing turf more challenging and expensive. The soil pH is good for the most part, but nutrition is lacking. This problem will have to be corrected by fertilization. It will take a much more aggressive program to help correct this situation. Your current program will have to increase. We can discuss programs based on budget dollars in the future. Irrigation: After soil, watering on a consistent basis is the key to growing good turf for heavy traffic. I cannot. emphasize enough how important automatic irrigation is for turf areas that will be exposed to~q~i~YED sporting event use. If you ever hope to establish a good dense turf with your soil type, water is a must. Playing fields always su~~ie3 1992 CIT_V Q~ C".!.~l\!HA:;,SE." Phone: (612) 263-2152 Todd Hoffman Page 2 damage from use. Irrigation not only allows us to establish but also to reestablish the turf by over-seeding when needed. athletic fields today without water is like building a home foundation. the turf, Building without a . e If irrigation cannot be installed in the near future on the soccer sites and other heavily used areas, I, or no one, can offer you any hope of establishing and sustaining quality turf on those sites. Even with irrigation, monitoring use under excessive moisture conditions will be important because of your poorly drained soils. Damage to the turf can be quite severe under these conditions. Aerification and over-seeding become your tools of rejuvenation. Without water, however, this process becomes less successful, and you do not get a good return on your dollar invested. You can pay for a new system on the money you save in reseeding without water, not to mention how much happier the end user is to play on good turf. Turf Grasses: If parks in the future cannot be irrigated or fertilized at the levels they require, we will need to move toward seed mixtures that require less fertilizer. The common types of bluegrass and fine fescue will become the selection of choice. This will develop a turf much like some of your older fields. However, color and traffic, or the ability to withstand traffic, become an issue with these grasses. Watering, mowing, fertility, and weed control practices can all be discussed as the year progresses. Dale will need some new tools to grow the type of turf everyone is looking for. e Summary: Todd, this will be blunt. Your soil is very poorly drained, lacks fertility, becomes hard when dry, and is non-irrigated on many sites where organized activity takes place. Modification of the soil would be difficul t and very expen~ive. The only alternative for improved results would be to install irrigation, apply a more complete and aggressive fertilizer program to these newer areas, and monitor use and scheduling of activities on these sites. You and Dale are working with some difficult conditions that need to be improved or else quality will decrease and injury will increase.

P.O. BOX 147. CHANHASSEN, MINNESOTA 55317 (612) 937-1900 . FAX (612) 937-5739 MEMORANDUM TO: Park and Recreation Commission //I FROM: Todd Hoffman, Park and Recreation Coordinator DATE: July 23, 1992 SUBJ: 1993 Park Acquisition and Development Capital Improvement Program BACKGROUND This item was deleted from the June 23, 1992, agenda. The establishment of an annual Park Acquisition and Development Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is one of the major responsibilities of the Park and Recreation Commission. The annual CIP is guided by the Chanhassen Park and Recreation 5- Y ear Capital Improvement Program. The process simplified is to pull information from the 5- Y ear CIP for the year 1993, modify it, apply cost estimates, and package the information as the 1993 Park Acquisition and Development CIP. The updated 5- Year CIP (attached), the newly distributed Park Plan and Inventory Manual, and the resources and knowledge of each commissioner and staff will be drawn upon in formulating the new CIP. The formulation of an annual CIP is a very important and exciting project. City residents rely on the guidance of the commission to ensure that the CIP will work towards effectively meeting the recreational and leisure needs of all residents. Upon completion, the proposed CIP will be forwarded along with other park and recreation budget requests to the City Council. As part of the budget process, public hearings are held by the City Council to allow for citizen comments on the proposed 1993 city budget As eluded to in an earlier report, I have adopted a conservative spending policy relative to all park and recreation budgets. In particular, Fund 410. This policy is not to say that the city is not moving forward with the development and improvement of the city's park and trail systems. The department continues to be committed to working towards the completion and maintenance of a quality park and trail system. Conservative management more closely describes the department's position, this is being accomplished through competitive purchasing practices, doing the job with less, and opting to perform more in-house work in lieu of contracting out. The current cash on hand in Fund 410 is approximately $250,000.00. This is down from a high of near $600,000.00 of 2-3 years ago. The purchase of parkland (Pheasant Hill) and a variety of construction projects, i.e. Lake Susan, Herman Field, Lake Ann, South Lotus Lake, Curry Farms, n '-J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER Park and Recreation Commission July 23, 1992 Page 2 e Sunset Ridge, and other neighborhood park projects resulted in this decline in assets. When accounting for reserves of $250,000.00; $150,000 for a future land purchase west of Lake Minnewashta, and a $100,000 general reserve, leaves the fund with little leeway for aggressive spending. This is not cause for alarm; however, the fund's present balance concurs with the current conservatism in the department. FORECASTED 1993 REVENUE In consultation with the City Manager's office, preliminary indications show a year of similar or improved park and trail fee revenue totals in 1993. Construction activity is obviously linked to economic cycles, but if a downturn were to occur, expenditures can be modified at any time to match revenues. Single family home starts account for a majority of revenue with commercial/ industrial development running a close second. The multi-family dwelling market has accounted for very little revenue in the past years, but provides more promise for revenue in the future. With housing starts continuing strong, and with the likelihood that commercial/industrial development will continue at a steady pace, park and trail revenues in 1993 should again reach the $150,000 mark. THE BUDGET PROCESS I envision that the commission would use an open forum approach to formulate a tentative park by park 1993 CIP in one or two work sessions. The goal of the CIP is obviously not to spend $100,000 to $150,000 in revenues, but to effectively work towards meeting the city's park, recreational and leisure needs. It is recommended that maximum budgeted expenditures, including any new reserve amounts, not exceed $150,000.00 again in 1993. e e . .

Increase numbers of artists and spread out locations. Lengthen the time by one-half hour. Trade Fair - Power Rotarv Concessions and Beer Garden Establish a vending contract with the Rotary so a donation is set, cleaning up is performed, etc. Decide if a fee needs to be established. e Dunk Tank Do again. Get celebrity dunkees. Carnival Games Add additional games (3-4) so people don't have to wait in long lines. Volunteers were helpful, but coordination of games and prizes needs to be better organized. Square Dancin!! Fine--have again. Hot Air Balloons Had to cancel due to wind, but try to have back again.

At the last Chaska City Council meeting. revisions were adopted to the youth and adult athletic league participation policy. In programs administered by the Cbaska recreation department. for adult . activities that utilize gymnasium space (school or city). all players must live or work within School District 112 or the City of Chanhassen. The disunctlon was made regarding Cbanhassen because the city bas two school districts within its boundaries and some of those Chaska administered recreation programs may use the Cbanhassen Elementary SchooJ as a program site. . 'Non-residents will pay more to play softball in Chaska leagues. The .non- resident fee was raisec:i from $20 to $40 per non-resident. Also. an addiuonal $1.0 fee will be assessed for a second team on which any individual may play. The new policy also reitepltes a quid pro quo between Chaska and the school district, saying: "It is the mtent of the City of Chaska to accommodate School District 112 requests for use of faciH~l;,s...that will .not im~act .cny regular usage. It is also expected that School Distnct 1-12 faCIlity av 811ablllty will continue to be accommodating pertaining to (the) extent (of) use by the City of Otaska. " Finally, the d::lIand recreation comm~~i?n grappled with the m~ner of preference in sponsored you~ actlV1U~S gomg .to Chaska resl~nts. Instead of adopting a dual fee scale.

Previously adopted policy statements mclude one saymg programs should accommodate Cbaska residents, and those who are em~lo~ed full, time in Chaska. Furthermore, youth activities should receive pnonty over adult activities in scheduling of facilities. . . ..,- . . . Other policies require adult recreational teams to SUbmit a-51 00 ellgtbil- ity deposit. And, effective since 19?1, all new teams .must be made up of a minimum of 75 percent Cbaska reSIdents ~r wo~ers. ,.. ~ -- .- r---'COUPON---.. 1 Valid ...uOOI8-1-92 1 I 18801. @I .1 ~ubli~ ~olf OP I I' Fac.Ulty 1 1 $lOO0ff Zoo Off I .

A total of 4,161 geese (1,257 adults and 2,904 young) were trapped at 59 sites and transported elsewhere. In 1991. we caught 2,822 geese (1,144 adults and 1,683 young) at 56 sites. Like last year, adult geese were divided between Oklahoma (500) and Mississippi (757) and released on their wildlife areas. The goslings were transported to Minnesota sites, mostly in the north and northwest, and e released. Goose production this spring was highest in the last 10 years. The early and cool spring gave the birds plenty of time to nest and kept the grass green and growing, contributed to an unusually productive year for the geese. While adults were up by only 113 (10 percent) in 1992, we caught 1,221 (73 percent) more young. The crew trapped 98% of the geese they attempted to capture, up from 95% last year The cool weather made for less stress on the geese and the goose capture crews. We lost one adult while trapping, and one gosling and one adult during transport. This was less that the four expected based on our estimate of the one death per 1000 geese captured and transported. All deaths resulted from the stress of the capture combined with an infirmity or disease. No birds were lost as a result of injury. The locations, dates, and number of geese captured in your city were: Location LAKE ANN LAKE :MINNEW ASHT A Date 6/29192 6/29/92 Young 22 70 Adults 12 29 Total 34 99 e e LAKE SUSAN TOTAL 6/29/92 28 120 13 S4 41 174 The cost of the removal was $2,000.
