<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>As you may know, on June 24, 2009
the Governor signed into law Senate Bill 637, which mandates IPM (Integrated
Pest Management) in schools. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The Bill requires OSU Extension to develop model IPM plans
or strategies for use in school districts. These plans can help you to
meet legislative requirements, improve pest management, <b>and reduce costs.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>For the plans to work for you, it is important that we
conduct an online survey to identify <span style='color:black'>current pest
problems and pest management practices in K-12 school facilities in
Oregon. <b>This is your opportunity to indicate critical issues and needs
for us to focus on. </b> All district-specific information collected will
remain anonymous in any subsequent reports or publications.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

to complete the survey (it should take less than 10 minutes). Thank you to
