Submitting an Annual Pesticide Use Summary Report to DEEP must be done which of the following?

• A. Must be submitted by January 15th.
• B. Must be submitted annually by March 31st.
• C. There is no annual report requirement.
• D. Must be submitted annually by January 31st.

Answer: (D)

The main idea is knowing the exact deadline for submitting the Annual Pesticide Use Summary Report to DEEP. That deadline is January 31 each year. This timing matters because the report summarizes all pesticide use from the previous year and makes the data available to the department in a timely way for oversight and environmental protection. Dates earlier or later than January 31 don’t fit the required annual cycle, and there is indeed a yearly reporting requirement. Plan to prepare the summary so it’s ready to submit by January 31.
