Happy New Year!
Happy New Year everyone! I have a feeling this is going to be a fun and productive year with lots of IPM projects on the horizon. In addition to our IPM coalition meetings, our newly revised IPM in Sensitive Environments manual will be coming out in print and PDF, and we have opportunities for some exciting IPM projects coming down the pike with groups we haven't worked with before. More on these as they develop.
