[Canyon] General Meeting May 21, budworm & Bt spraying info

[Tom Fiddaman]

A reminder: the BCPOA General Meeting is next Tuesday, May 21. Details to
follow.

I neglected to attach the flyer to my last message about aerial spraying of
Bt for spruce budworm control. I've attached it to a page at bcpoa.net,

http://bcpoa.net/2013/05/spruce-budworm-bt/

Note that, if you want to respond to the flyer, use the contact information
provided - I'm not coordinating this.

I also included information that then-BCPOA Director Joan Cory collected
when Bt spraying was planned in 2007, a Forest Service assessment of 2010
spraying at Bridger Bowl, and comment from Matt Broughton, organic farmer at
3 Fiddles Farm.

Probably the most important advice from that page is to notify your
neighbors when spraying is to occur. Overspray is large, and Bt does pose
potential hazards, at least to immune-compromised individuals.

Comments are open on that page, if you'd like to discuss.
