Reporting for Multiple Applicators

If your business employs multiple applicators, you can submit a single report on behalf of all of the applicators employed by your business during the report year.  There are two methods of doing this.

Method 1

      This is the preferred method.

1. Enter the name and certification number of one applicator on the registration form.
   
   

   It does not matter which of your business’s applicators you enter on the registration form; however, if your company has one applicator with primary supervisory responsibility over other applicators, that applicator would be a reasonable choice.

   
   
   

2. Fill out a Form 26A to list all applicators employed by your business during the report year, whether or not they made any pesticide applications. 
   
   

3. Fill out a Form 26 for all reportable pesticide applications made by all your applicators.

    

   The information on the  registration form does not need to be changed to report for multiple applicators.  Normally, when you open a blank Form 26, the certification number on the registration form is copied to the new Form 26. This is acceptable, even though the applicator shown might not have personally performed all (or even any) of the pesticide applications reported or supervised the making of those applications.

Method 2

      Although it is not required by the DEC, you may maintain a separate Form 26 for each applicator entered on Form 26A.

1. On the registration form check the box labeled “Check here if you wish to maintain separate application files …”.
   
   
2. Then open a blank Form 26; a list of the applicators from your Form 26A will be shown. 
   
   

3. Select one of the applicators.  The name and Certification ID of the applicator you select will be written to the header area of the empty Form 26.
