Excerpt from public record email
Sent on behalf of Anderson H. Rackley, Director of Agricultural Environmental Services, FDACS
Dear Stakeholders,
Thank you for coming to the table to discuss the issue of bee removal from structures. This is a topic that was brought forward by the Pest Control Enforcement Advisory Council, and it is an issue that deserves careful consideration. We believe it is prudent to initially explore consumer concerns related to bee removal from structures in independent meetings with the beekeeping and pest control industries. Therefore, the workshop set for February 2, 2018 is being cancelled at this time.
We will continue to gather additional input from all stakeholders and will keep everyone updated on any future workshop dates that may occur.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by cancelling this meeting and look forward to our future conversations.
