The Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Pesticide Board is proposing to adopt 02 N.C. Admin Code 09L .0707, which would declare the Eastern and Hairy-tailed moles to be pests. The proposed rule regulates the use of pesticides to control the moles including limiting the areas where they can be used and their application near water bodies. The deadline for comment is December 15, 2014. See http://www.ncoah.com/rules/register/Volume%2029%20Issue%2008%20October%2015,%202014.pdf (p. 906).
