I received complaints about a contractor (on behalf of the Forestry Commission) pesticide spraying oak trees to deal with Oak Processionary Moth (OMP).
There was clear concern about the health and safety of Park users.
From the complaints which detailed a lack of warning signs and spraying on a windy day; I have contacted Environmental Health at the Council.
In response the Council has; (1) Raised these concerns with both 
the contractor and Forestry Commission.
(2) Reminded the contractors of their health and safety obligations for spraying in public places
(3) Instructed permission is sought to enter any Council controlled land (so parks, open spaces etc) or providing all mandatory health and safety paperwork in advance.
