3. Spray Drift of Pesticides - EPA Spray Drift page.

4. National Agricultural Aviation Association (NAAA) - Once on this site click on 'PAASS' (Professional Aerial Applicators Support System). Information on Drift Minimization.

5. USDA, ARS Application Technology Rearch Unit - This web site has information on USDA Agricutural Research Service research on pesticide application technologies conducted at the Ohio Agricultural Reseach & Development Center (OARDC), including several research projects on Spray Drift Minimization.

6. Spray Drift Task Force (SDTF) - The Spray Drift Task Force was organized under provisions of FIFRA to develop a generic spray drift data base capable of satisfying spray drift data requirements for virtually all pesticide product registrations in the United States and Canada. NOTE: As of early November, 1998 their site was under construction and no information was provided under their topic heading: Drift Management Information. None of the few links seem to be directly related to pesticide drift except a weather link.These are all PDF files.

7. National Coalition on Drift Minimization - NCODM. A national coalition working on the issue of pesticide spray drift minimization, including regulators, educators, pesticide applicators, manufacturers, dealers, consultants/advisors, growers, processors, and all others vital to the application of pesticides.

8. CP Products - A commercial site. This company has nozzles for aerial and ground applications. This site has setup and maintanence info, a nozzle and droplet size calculator, and operator hints, also has links to related sites.
