December 19, 2025 – SACRAMENTO – Today, the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) launched an Enforcement Data Dashboard, a new online tool to make pesticide enforcement and inspection data more accessible and transparent for Californians.
The dashboard presents information in a user-friendly, interactive format, providing data collected by DPR on local enforcement conducted by County Agricultural Commissioners’ (CACs).
“This dashboard brings greater access and transparency to the work conducted across the state to enforce pesticide use laws and regulations,” said DPR Director Karen Morrison. “By making enforcement data more accessible, we’re supporting data-driven oversight and continuous improvement in how pesticide laws are implemented.”
The dashboard includes:
- An overview of DPR and CACs’ respective roles in pesticide use enforcement.
- Interactive pages that illustrate historical data on restricted material permitting, inspections and investigations, and enforcement actions.
- Tools to filter data by county, date range, inspection type and more.
