DESCRIPTION:A public hearing by the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors to consider 
 the issue of aerial spraying of a synthetic pheromone product (untested on 
 humans) to combat the light brown apple moth will take place on\n\nTuesday 
 - Oct. 16 - 7pm \n@ the Supervisors' Chambers  \n5th floor of the County 
 Bldg. (corner of Water & Ocean).\n\nThere will be representatives from the 
 California Department of Agriculture who will explain the proposed program, 
 followed by hopefully lots of testimony from lots of concerned citizens.  A 
 similar public hearing happened on Tuesday, Oct. 9 @ the Santa Cruz City 
 Council mtg., after which the city council voted 4 (Porter, Madrigal, 
 Rotkin, Reilly) to 3 (Coonerty, Mathews, Robinson) to mount or join a 
 lawsuit to stop the spraying at least for now till more information can be 
 gathered. Let's show up and convince the Supervisors to join the city in 
 this lawsuit.  Phone calls, letters, and emails before Tuesday's hearing 
 are also encouraged.\n\nMore information about this issue can be found at 
 http://1hope.org.  This is the website of HOPE (Help Our Peninsula's 
 Environment), the folks that have mounted the lawsuit to stop, somewhat 
 belatedly, the spraying in Monterey County.  After the first spraying was 
 done in Monterey in September, this group received over 100 affidavits from 
 citizens claiming to have had adverse reactions to the spray. \n\nThe 
 Supervisors can be phoned @ 831-454-2200 and emailed
