EPA Improves Online Application to Protect Endangered Species
For Release February 17, 2022
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has released an improved version of Bulletins Live! Two (BLT), an online application for Endangered Species Protection Bulletins. BLT describes geographically specific pesticide use limitations to protect threatened and endangered species and their designated critical habitat.
Pesticide applicators are required to reference the BLT website when directed by a product label and follow the use limitations for the intended application area, pesticide active ingredient or product, and application month.
The updated BLT system offers the following new capabilities that enable users to more easily find the information they need for a particular pesticide product. The updates include:
- Faster load and search times by connecting directly to EPA’s Pesticide Product Label System;
- A modernized user interface with higher resolution basemaps;
- Increased compatibility with more web browsers; and
- A simplified search function with clarified instructions for searching by registration number.
