Pesticide use near Utah schools would face new restrictions under this bill. Nine specific pesticides—including glyphosate (found in Roundup), atrazine, chlorpyrifos, dicamba, paraquat dichlorate, diquat dibromide, 2,4-dichloroacetic acid, and PFAS "forever chemicals"—would be completely banned within 1,000 feet of the boundary of any public or private elementary or secondary school, including school driveways, parking lots, and any property used for school instruction or extracurricular activities. Any other pesticide (except biopesticides, antimicrobials, microbicides, and virucides) could still be applied within that 1,000-foot zone, but only if the applicator posts visible signs at least 72 hours before and for 72 hours after the application to notify people nearby.
