Abstract
Over 25 years ago workers recognized the adverse potential of fieldworker exposure to pesticide residues. Subsequent fieldworker acute organophosphate intoxications and resulting political pressure led to regulations by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency. These regulations and the worker reentry situation have been the subject of reviews. In this article, these reviews and conclusions will be discussed.
