Come to the first San Francisco City Public Hearing on the LBAM (light brown apple moth) and California's eradication plan. This is a meeting of the Board of Supervisor's Government Audit and Oversight Committee, which is considering two resolutions (Mirkarimi and Dufty) opposing the LBAM eradication plan.

Show Your Support for the Mirkarimi Legislation! It contains the strongest language in opposition to the spray.


WHO: All opponents of the LBAM spraying who live, work, or come to San Francisco City and County. Bring signs and banners.

Please come to the first San Francisco City Public Hearing on the LBAM (light brown apple moth) and California's eradication plan. This is a meeting of the Board of Supervisor's Government Audit and Oversight Committee, which is considering two resolutions regarding the LBAM eradication plan.

WHO: All opponents of the LBAM spraying who live, work, or come to San Francisco City and County.

WHAT: The California Dept. of Food and Agriculture will make a presentation, followed by several opposing independent scientists. There will be an opportunity for public comment. The sentiment now is pretty anti-spray, but it is important to show up en masse to support the supervisors, who may feel pressured by the State. We also want to communicate that passing a resolution is not enough--we must set up an infrastructure of public education, health resources, and health
effects reporting if the spray goes through.

WHEN: Monday, April 7 at 10 AM on the 2nd Floor of San Francisco City Hall (Civic Center BART stop, it's the building with big white columns and a dome laced with gold)

HOW: CASS-SF will be preparing some speakers, and we want everyone to have a chance to give public comment.
