(105 ILCS 160/5)
    Sec. 5. Legislative findings. The General Assembly finds that:
        (1) schools throughout the State treat school
    
property with pesticides in order to reduce risks to students from noxious weeds, such as thistle, poison ivy, pests, allergies, disease bearing insects, and activities on unlevel playing surfaces;
        (2) unless properly applied in accordance with the
    
United States Environmental Protection Agency's pesticide labels, schools may inadvertently expose children to pesticides; and
        (3) it is the purpose of this Act to minimize student
    
exposure to pesticides.
