Speech 1 - Request to Stop "Chemical Use" in Erie Metroparks (unedited version)

Presentation to Stop "Chemical Use" in the Erie Metroparks

Prepared by L.C. Berlekamp and J.B. Pribanic on behalf of THE ERIE WIRE in order to promote biodiversity

The following information was presented during a discussion with the Erie Metroparks Board of Commissions and their Executive Director, Stephen Dice, on the use of chemical pesticides for controlling invasive plant species and weeds within the parks. It is the position of The Erie Wire that the use of certain chemicals is counter-productive to preserving the environment and that there are newer, safer methods available that will be cost-effective as long-term solutions. We proudly support the Erie Metroparks as a valuable recreational and natural resource to the county and we are obliged to provide them with information and to make these recommendations in order to keep them viable.
