Mr. Hallam has also released the report of the New South Wales Government Committee of Inquiry into the Use and Safety of 2,4,5-T. The Committee, which was chaired by Mr. Walter Lewer, former Deputy Chief Stipendiary Magistrate, received 109 submissions. Its recommendations have been substantially adopted by Cabinet. Cabinet has decided that: 1. The legal limit of TCflD (dioxin) contaminant in 2,4,5-T will be reduced from the present limit of 0.1 parts per m i l l i o n to 0.01 parts per million. "The level has been lowered on the universally accepted principle that concentrations of toxic substances should be reduced to the minimum achicveable." The New South Wales standard is now equal to that applying in V i c t o r i a and the U.K. 2. The higher v o l a t i l e ester f o r m u l a t i o n s of 2,4,5-T will be w i t h d r a w n .

Application of 2,4,5-T within a distance of 50 metres of any inhabited dwelling, public building, dam, river, water channel, or stream would also require a permit. 6. To prevent the possibility of consumption, all application of 2,4,5-T to blackberries bearing ripe fruit will be prohibited. 7. All applicants for registration of 2,4,5-T will be required to keep records, and make returns, of the amount sold or supplied in N.S.W. 8. To protect employees, all workers including Government and Local Government, will be required to wear protective clothing when mixing or using 2,4,5-T. Employees will be required to wear a boiler type suit with sleeves and buttoned at the wrists and throat, gauntlet gloves, washable hat and impervious boots or shoes. When mixing, a face shield is to be worn; and when working in any spray drift, a respirator. "Employers will be required to provide the protective clothing to employees," Mr. Hallam said. 9. Government and Local Government employees exposed to 2,4,5-T will be required to undergo regular medical examinations to measure occupational exposure. 10. Employers will be required to give appropriate training to employees on the correct use of 2,4,5-T. 11. "Defective equipment in respect to leakages, spillages and spray output will not be allowed," Mr. Hallam said. "The Government has taken account of the A.C.T.U. Executive recommendations on this chemical. "An Advisory Committee on pesticides has been established The Committee is to consist of senior officers representing various Government Departments together with a Trade Union representative and a rrprcccntative of cnviroimental groups. �-3The broad terms of reference of the Committee are to: * Keep certain pesticides under review; including the uses to be allowed for such pesticides; * Examine new proposed uses of pesticides, where it is considered special circumstances exist; and * Receive representations, in person and in writing, from trade unions, environmental '• * and other * •• organisations; and consider t.he evidence presented. ~ ' *•** ) ^^ ' In addition the Pesticides Act,- 1978, will be amended to require the licensing of aircraft app'lid'ators and pilots. \ "Pilots will be required to demonstrate they are aware of the problems associated with pesticides, and use of these chemicals from aircraft," Mr. Hallam said. "Licences could be suspended or even cancelled if infringements occur." Proprietors of agricultural aircraft operations will be required to hold an appropriate insurance policy to cover loss or damage. "Aircraft will be required to be approved beforehand and records of all spraying 'operations must be kept. These records will be available to Inspectors at any time, or to other persons upon reasonable reques't," Mr. Hallam said. �� Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The number included, 15 B-57 a i r c r a f t to Bermuda on 2 and 3 June; 20 F-100 a i r c r a f t to France on 11 and 12 June; 35 high flight a i r c r a f t ; 18 T - 2 9 navigator training flights; and, 180 other departures. It provided additional support in cooperation with the Coast Guard for the air search for the missing KB-50 discussed previously in this chapter. Special Aerial Spray Flight The Special Aerial Spray Flight was a section of the n o n - O / T authorization of the 4500th Air Base Wing. Its purpose is to p e r f o r m aerial spray missions in conformance with AFR 90-3, dated 21 March 1958, and TAG Supplement 90-3, dated 15 March 1961. The policies and responsibilities are outlined in these regulations. Training pilots to qualify as both C-123 pilots and spray pilots was a p r i m a r y problem. Pilots w e r e either qualified in one phase or the other during the entire period and at the close of the reporting period no pilot assigned to the flight was a qualified spray pilot in the C-123 aircraft. C r e w s w e r e being trained and plans indicated c r e w s qualified in b o t h phases would be available soon. Shortage of personnel in administ r a t i v e and a i r c r e w p o s i t i o n s t o g e t h e r with absence of personnel on TDY ( r o u t e d problem:) in every are.i of t h i s operation. �64 At the close of the reporting period, tests w e r e being conducted using herbicides with the Advance R e s e a r c h P r o j e c t s Agency of U. S. Government. During the period three spraying missions were conducted at Langley AFB. The statistics follow: Area sprayed. Insecticide used Flying time Total cost Cost per acre 36, 414 acres 13, 970 gallons 10: 55 hours $20, 903. 56 $0. 61 average \ Standardization Board During the period of this report, the Standardization Board has given 200 pilot and navigator standardization checks. A new standardization program has been initiated for all multi-engine support a i r c r a f t . This program includes new w.ritten examinations and a more comprehensive flight check. The two assigned personnel of the Wing Standardization Board attended the TAG SEG School. The Wing Standardization Board has only one major w r i t e - u p during the IG Inspection. This w r i t e - u p was for not being properly manned. All flight mechanics have been given a new w r i t t e n examina- tion in their appropriate a i r c r a f t . The Standardization/Evaluation Review Panel has'held one meeting d u r i n g the period of this r e p o r t . Major H e r b e r t W. Jones a s s u m e d the �65 the installation of a pony teletype circuit which, speeds the delivery of NOTAMs. Plans called for a passenger lounge, an improved dispatch section, and an improved snack bar. The Foreign Clearance section provided foreign clearance briefings to 233 flights clearing to foreign destinations. Of this number, 48 were high flight aircraft, 16 were T-29 navigation training flights, and 189 others which included many flights from the 4505th Air Refueling Wing. The section was host in providing a four-hour navigation orientation program for 150 ROTC Cadets in August. In October and November, the Foreign Clearance section moved to temporary facilities to provide space for crews standing alert during the Cuban operation. Special Aerial Spray Flight The Special Aerial Spray Flight, a section of the non Operations/ Training authorization of the 4500th Air Base Wing for the purpose of performing Aerial Spray Missions in accordance with AFR 91-22, was the responsibility of the Commander, 4500th Air Base Wing. The responsibilities included development of aerial insecticide dispersal techniques in cooperation with other government agencies, �66 training aircrews for the performance of spray missions, and maintaining a repository of special flying and technical skills for expansion, disaster relief, and tactical operations. The spray flight also maintained, published and distributed to interested agencies biological and operational information concerning the aerial spray program. During this period 16 bases were approved for aerial spray work; however, only 11 bases were serviced because modification of the aircraft for granular insecticide dispersal was not completed in time to service the 16 bases that were approved for spraying. o Statistics for this period are as follows: 28 sorties were flown. 368,050 acres were covered. 33,484 gallons were aerially dispersed. 68:40 spray time was recorded. 75:10 f e r r y time to and from bases sprayed. $.33 average cost per acre for the period. $52,170. 90 total cost for this period. Sixteen missions were flown in support of the Advance Research Projects Agency (ARPAJ tests conducted at Eglin AFB, Fla. The program began during the last week of June 1962. 33:40 hours spray time was recorded in dispersing 4, 251 gallons of spray. Plans have been made to complete the ARPA test in the spring of 1963 at Eglin AFB, Fla. �53 Special Aerial Spray Flight The special aerial spray flight continued operations providing aerial insecticide dispersal services for agencies of the Department of Defense and for other agencies as directed by Hq TAG. The flight continued development of aerial insecticide dispersal techniques in cooperation with interested government agencies; it trained aircrews; it maintained records of special flying and technical skills needed for expansion, disaster relief, and tactical operations; and it maintained, published, and distributed to interested agencies biological and operational information. The flight was a non operations-training section authorized by AFR 91-22, 10 September 1962, and it was responsible to the commander of the 4500th Air Base Wing. The flight was supervised by Capt. Carl W. Marshall and had a complement of 17 pilots, 10 flight engineers, one clerk typist, and one entomologist, Dr. (Capt.) Claude T.' Adams. Seven aircraft were assigned to the flight. Three of these were committed to Viet Nam, one was undergoing modification to a granular spray system, one was undergoing calibration tests �54 for a new and larger spray system at Eglin AFB, Fla. , and two were available for spraying in the United States. Headquarters TAG approved 21 government reservations for spraying. By the end of the period, only seven of these areas had been sprayed because of the unusually low temperatures experienced this spring. Statistics covering the spray operations follow: Sorties flown Acres sprayed Gallons sprayed Hours flown spraying Hours flown ferrying aircraft to spray sites Average cost of spraying per acre Total cost of spraying operations 85 209,720 68,000 59:05 31:40 $. 36 $74, 731. 30 In addition to the spraying of government reservations, the flight was engaged in three other activities. The first was a calibration test conducted at Lackland AFB, Tex. in January. The 6570th EPI Laboratory at Lackland was to evaluate the dispersal techniques and procedures used by the spray flight. Even though the 6570th EPI Laboratory had the responsibility to set up the test program, their personnel were not familiar with the present day modern dispersal techniques. As a result, the evaluation program was of little value. �55 A second activity took place at Eglin AFB, Fla. A program began in May to test a larger spraying system. The test program was still underway at the end of the period and the final results may be available in July or August. The last of the three activities took place in Viet Nam. Three crew and aircraft were committed to this operation during the entire period. The average length of tour for each crew averaged approximately four months, with the tours being rotated among the spray flight personnel. This rotation of crew personnel to Viet Nam caused an occasional temporary shortage of qualified spray flight crews in the United States. The mission in Viet Nam concerned defoliation activities. Safety The Office of Safety incurred three personnel changes during the period 1 January through 30 June 63. A civilian secretary to the Director of Safety was promoted and transferred to Hq TAG. Immediately following this action, a freeze was placed on hiring civilian personnel a,nd as a result, the position was abolished to enable the Wing to meet a directed manpower cut. �49 over-water navigation proficiency flights during the period. F i f t y - s e v e n navigators used these flights to accomplish the AFM 60-1 flying requirements. Twenty-eight proficiency flights were scheduled during the six-month period. Eighteen were flown as scheduled and 10 were cancelled or aborted due to maintenance. Special Aerial Spray Flight The Special Aerial Spray Flight, authorized by AFR 91-22, 10 September 1962, was responsible to the Commander, 4500th Air Base Wing. The mission of the Spray Flight was as follows; To provide aerial insecticide dispersal services for all agencies of the Department of Defense (DOD) and other government agencies as directed by Headquarters TAG; to develop aerial insecticide dispersal techniques in cooperation with other government agencies; to train aircrews and maintain records of special flying and technical skills, for expansion, disaster relief and tactical operations; and to maintain, publish and distribute to interested agencies biological and operational information. During this reporting period there were 17 pilots, 10 flight �50 engineers and one clerk assigned with Captain Carl W. Marshall as OIC. Spray Flight was also authorized an Entomologist, Captain Claude T. Adams. Of the seven assigned C-123 spray aircraft, three w e r e in Viet Nam conducting defoliation missions, one aircraft completed modifications to the granular system and underwent calibration testing at Macon Municipal Airport, Ga., and spent the remainder of the period conducting spray operations against fire ants at Liberty Field, Ga. progress. This operation is still in 9 These figures do not include the granular dispersal now being conducted against fire ants, since this project is not completed, nor does it include our defoliation missions in Viet Nam or a special insecticide control mission against bombay locusts in Bangkok, Thialand. No serious problems w e r e encountered; however, due to the rotation system of personnel to the Viet Nam area, aircraft manning of c r e w s s u f f e r e d occasionally due to lag time between crews returning and replacement crews rotating.
