Official Summary Text

AB 2759, as introduced, Macedo.
Agricultural pest control advisers: refusal, revocation, or suspension of licenses.
Existing law prohibits a person from acting, or offering to act, as an agricultural pest control adviser without first having secured a license from the Director of Pesticide Regulation, except as specified. Existing law provides that cause for refusal, revocation, or suspension of that license includes, among other things, failure or refusal to comply with specified provisions of law.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that latter provision.
