Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill requires federal agencies to publicly disclose when they use pesticides on government-owned or managed land. Within one year of the law's enactment, the Environmental Protection Agency must create a publicly accessible database where federal agencies report pesticide applications within five days of use. Each report must include details such as the pesticide name and active ingredients, application location with coordinates, date, and purpose. Agencies can withhold information from public disclosure only for national security reasons, and such protections last no longer than one year and must be renewed with congressional notification. The bill allows individuals to sue federal agencies for failing to report pesticide use, with potential damages up to $5,000 per unreported instance or $25,000 for any three-month period of non-compliance.
