Which statement correctly describes the Project Control Permit’s scope regarding pest birds?

• A. It applies to outdoor pesticide proposals for control of feral pigeons, starlings, and English sparrows
• B. It applies to control of all wildlife statewide
• C. It applies only to indoor pesticide proposals
• D. It requires no permit for any pest birds

Answer: (A)

The Project Control Permit is specifically about outdoor pesticide proposals for controlling certain pest birds that commonly cause problems in urban and outdoor settings. It targets feral pigeons, starlings, and English sparrows, recognizing these species as the typical pests in outdoor environments where developers or managers might plan control work. This scope isn’t about all wildlife statewide, nor does it cover indoor pesticide proposals, and there is a permit requirement for pest bird control rather than no permit. So the statement that the permit applies to outdoor pesticide proposals for control of those three bird species accurately reflects its intended scope.
