Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, any licensee who intends to apply to commercially grown agricultural or horticultural crops any pesticide known to be harmful to bees shall give notice of that intent to any apiarist having bees on the land to be treated or on adjacent land, so that the apiarist will be able to protect his or her bees.2. The notice is not required if the apiarist has not given the licensee current information regarding the location of the apiary.3. The notice required by this section must be given personally or by telephone or electronic mail to the apiarist.4. The notice required by this section must be given not more than 72 hours and not less than 24 hours before the application to each apiarist having apiaries within 2 miles of the field to be treated if the apiarist has provided the licensee with the location of his or her apiaries. If an application is postponed after proper notice has been given, the licensee must repeat the notice at least 12 hours before the rescheduled application.5. The notice required by this section must include: (a) The name of the person for whom the application is to be made;(b) The location and acreage of the land to be treated; and(c) The name of the pesticide to be applied.6. The provisions of this section apply to any unlicensed employee of a licensee who engages in the activities described in this section under the supervision of the licensee.
