What does N.J.A.C. 8:52 cover?

• A. Public Health Practice Standards - covers every program and staff member required in a local health department
• B. Environmental compliance standards
• C. Food safety inspections
• D. Pest control regulations

Answer: (D)

N.J.A.C. 8:52 is about Pest Control Regulations. This section lays out the rules for pest management in the state, including licensing and certification of pest control applicators, allowable methods and products, labeling and recordkeeping, and enforcement provisions. The other topics listed—public health practice standards, environmental compliance standards, or food safety inspections—are governed by different chapters, so pest control regulations is the section that 8:52 covers.
