Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Sample Clauses

Integrated Pest Management (IPM). The City of El Cerrito has adopted policies, procedures and sustainable landscaping standards that include IPM, ReScape (formerly Bay-Friendly) Landscaping Principles and industry best practices. These standards nurture soil health and ecological diversity, reduce staff and the public’s exposure to pesticides, and reduce toxicity in public areas, water bodies and other sensitive habitats. Contractor adherence to these policies, goals and pest prevention priorities is required.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM). A. It is the intent of the District to minimize the use of chemical pest control. To meet this intent, the Contractor shall develop an integrated Pest Management Plan (IPM). This plan shall be submitted within 90 days of the start of maintenance. The IPM plan shall contain the following components: a. Identify and implement cultural practices that will assist in controlling pest problems, i.e., aerification, thatching, pruning, fertilization, and irrigation schedules that do not enhance conditions conductive to pest growth. b. The evaluation of the common pest problems and a sustainable long-term management plan to eliminate or manage them at an acceptable level. c. Damage thresholds that will be used to determine pest control methods and establish when pesticide use will be acceptable. d. Identify a monitoring program that will provide information related to pest populations to monitor, identify, and establish control methods more effectively.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM). 1.1 The FIAA shall ensure that all pesticide applicators provide a pest management program that abides by federal and provincial legislation, and that incorporates integrated pest management (IPM) principles and practices to reduce the use of broad-spectrum pesticides. 1.2 The goal of 1PM is to manage pests effectively, safety and economically, by (a) reducing the use of broad-spectrum pesticides, and using more pest/target specific control products; (b) reducing the level of toxicity of products used, and avoiding products officially known or suspected of being human carcinogens; (c) using alternate control methods; and (d) improving and perfecting application methods. 1.3 IPM is an approach to pest management that integrates all pest management practices and control methods into one pest management program. 1PM does not usually try to eliminate all pests, but tries to reduce the pest population to an acceptable level. In IPM, the use of pesticides is advocated as a last resort only. 1.4 IPM involves identifying pests, determining the cause and source of the pest, knowing the pest’s life cycle, behaviour and effects on its host, and the most vulnerable period in its life cycle; and monitoring pest activities and the effectiveness of control or management methods. 1.5 IPM requires knowing and using available methods, such as (a) approved biological controls including parasitic and predatory insects and host-specific pathogens; (b) maximizing a plant’s health and minimizing its susceptibility to pest infestations by crop rotation, moisture control, planting techniques, and sanitation; (c) genetic selection, i.e., choosing resistant species and varieties of plants; (d) mechanical controls, e.g. trapping, cultivating, physical barriers; (e) the use of pesticides which are of relatively low toxicity to human and animal populations, and of low persistency in the environment; e.g., insecticidal soaps;
Integrated Pest Management (IPM). A process for evaluating and selecting a program from available techniques to reduce pest populations in an ecologically, economically, and socially acceptable manner. Programs may include one or a combination of available techniques, which may include the use of pesticides, cultural or silvicultural treatments, biological control agents, host resistance, genetic control, mechanical destruction or trapping, and behavioral chemicals including attractants and repellants. How hot a fire is. Specifically, a measure (in BTUs per foot per second) of the energy released per unit of time in an area of actively burning fire. The amount of heat released per foot of fire front per second. A collective term for any treatment or tending designed to enhance growth, quality, vigor, and composition of the stand after establishment or regeneration and prior to final harvest. Any non-native species whose introduction does or is likely to cause economic or environmental harm or harm to human health (Executive Order 13112, 1999). A genus of bark beetle that feeds beneath the bark of pines, typically killing branches, tops or entire trees. These beetles often breed in logging slash or attack stressed and injured pines. A silvicultural method characterized by a relatively long regeneration period during which some of the trees of the overwood are retained to complete growth to optimum size and quality. The trees reserved may be the best and most vigorous of the dominants, as in typical shelterwood cuttings. They may also be trees of the lower crown classes that have grown slowly in the past, but are capable of rapid growth if released. In either case, the reserved trees tend to hamper the development of regeneration beneath them so that the new stand will have a distribution of ages broader than that of truly even-aged stands.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM). IPM is a decision making process for managing pests that uses monitoring to determine pest injury levels and combines biological, cultural, physical and chemical tools to minimize health, environmental and financial risks. IPM emphasizes the use of extensive knowledge about the target pests, such as infestation thresholds, life histories, environmental requirements and natural enemies to compliment and facilitate biological and other natural control measures of pests. IPM uses the least toxic pesticides only as a last resort for controlling pests.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM). DRAFT Contractor shall ensure that work locations and kitchens are maintained to prevent the entrance and harborage of animals, birds, and vermin, including but not limited to, rodents and insects. Contractor shall ensure that IPM practices are implemented to provide a pest free environment. IPM practices include but are not limited to: Keep garbage tightly covered and remove from kitchen quickly and properly. Properly store all food and supplies. Seal cracks and other openings to the outside. Use traps and baits to monitor the pest population. When pests are discovered, Contractor shall utilize the services of a certified/licensed pest control company to inspect, fumigate, and perform pest control services. Pest Control Reports shall be kept on file and made available for review by County upon request. Contractor’s Staff shall be available to County every day during normal business hours. For any disruption of Services, Contractor shall submit a written request to County’s Program Manager at least five (5) business days in advance of the closure/deviation date. This notice is to state the date and reason for the closure and to provide an action plan to ensure that delivery of Services is not disrupted. An action plan must be approved by County prior to implementation. Contractor shall ensure that all GPDP Meal Clients receive meals for days that Contractor is closed.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM). All employees must have experience and training in IPM techniques, see attached document with the City new IPM policy approved by City Council March 5, 2024. Once the contract has been awarded and before Contractor begins work, all employees who will be working on this contract must attend the City’s one-day IPM Implementation Training. If there is substantial turnover in employees during the contract period, the Contractor will inform SRW and (an) additional training session(s) may be held. Personnel must be able to identify common weeds, native, and landscaping plants common at these facilities.
