Planning and Improvement

Back to Pesticide Use Enforcement

As part of an organization-wide effort to incorporate continuous quality improvement into California's pesticide use enforcement program, the Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) and the County Agricultural Commissioners (CACs) developed a cycle that includes state and local program review, planning, implementation, and evaluation. DPR's guidance represents a simplified approach in targeting core enforcement program priorities and evaluating the effectiveness of county programs. In turn, county work plans identify state, regional, and local compliance problems, emerging issues, and measurable solutions based on available resources. Jointly developed performance standards are used by DPR to evaluate the effectiveness of the county's enforcement program.
