Special permit areas include which of the following?

• A. Restricted areas including mosquito control, aquatic nuisance control, aerial application, bird control, forest pest control, right of way pest control
• B. Residential lawn care only
• C. Greenhouse pest control exclusively
• D. Public parks only

Answer: (A)

Special permit areas are zones where pesticide applications require extra authorization or specific conditions because of higher risk to people, non-target species, or sensitive environments. The examples given—restricted areas such as mosquito control, aquatic nuisance control, aerial application, bird control, forest pest control, and right-of-way pest control—illustrate situations where regulatory agencies impose additional safeguards and permit requirements to manage exposure and protect health and the environment. The other options describe common settings like residential lawn care, greenhouse pest control, or public parks, which are not designated as special permit areas. Therefore, the choice listing the restricted areas best reflects what qualifies as a special permit area.
