About this Event
This is to register for the LBMP exam for certification. You must first watch the videos at:
Landscape BMPs Videos for the Manatee County Fertilizer Ordinance
- English
- Spanish
Refunds will be granted 24 hours in advance if you are unable to attend.
As of June 1, 2012 all commercial and institutional (e.g. school, government employees) fertilizer applicators must be individually certified to apply fertilizers in Manatee County. This certification is issued to individuals holding a "Limited Certification for Urban Landscape Commercial Fertilizer" license issued by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS).
All other landscape maintenance professionals in Manatee County that ARE NOT applying fertilizer (other than clerical or administrative staff) must individually obtain a Landscape Certification from the Manatee County Extension Service by December 1, 2012. This certification is awarded after successful completion of Landscape Best Management Practices (Landscape BMP) training from the Manatee County Extension Service. Spanish language classes are available.
This is NOT for the fertilizer license required by the state of Florida for those who apply fertilizer.
The exam will be held at the UF/IFAS Manatee County Extension Office located at 1303 17th St W., Palmetto, FL 34221. Please arrive 15 minutes before the exam time in case of any questions or need of assistance.
The paper exams will be offered in either English or Spanish. Multiple people can attend the paper exams, however, each must pay the registration fee.
