Who can purchase or use pesticides designated for applications to aquatic environments?

  1. Any public member

  2. Only certified applicators with private or aquatic license endorsement

  3. Only licensed fishermen

  4. Dealers with special permits

The correct answer is: Only certified applicators with private or aquatic license endorsement

Option A is incorrect because any public member may not have the knowledge or expertise to safely handle aquatic pesticides and may lead to accidental pollution or harm to aquatic environments. Option C is incorrect because only being a licensed fisherman does not necessarily mean one has the required training and qualifications to use aquatic pesticides. Option D is incorrect because dealers with special permits may not have the proper training and experience in handling aquatic pesticides and may lead to misuse or overuse of these chemicals. The only correct option is B, as certified applicators with a private or aquatic license endorsement have been trained and tested on proper usage and safety procedures for aquatic pesticides. This ensures that these chemicals are only used by those who have the proper knowledge and qualifications to safely apply them in aquatic environments.
