About [Edit]
The
California Alliance to Stop the
Spray (CASS) consists of organizations,
health professionals, and individuals
who share the same common goal of
opposing the treatment of residential
communities with pesticides.
Our collective concern has arisen
out of the fact that the light brown
apple moth (LBAM) eradication program
currently underway in different
parts of California utilizes a biochemical
pesticide spray that has not undergone
formal safety testing by either
federal or state agencies, that
the spray has never been sprayed
on humans before, that the end goal
of eradication will likely not be
accomplished, and of particular
concern, is the lack of an effective
adverse effects monitoring system
for assessing the potential for
adverse human health effects.
CASS provides an organizational vehicle by which residents of the state protect their inalienable rights to safety and privacy, and to not have their persons or property, including public areas, sprayed with chemicals or any other substance.
