The Legislature declares that:

1. Children are particularly vulnerable to and may be severely affected by exposure to chemicals, hazardous wastes and other environmental hazards that may be used for cleaning and maintenance in the public schools; and
2. It is the intent of the Legislature to reduce the possible exposure of pupils and school personnel to potentially hazardous chemicals and substances which are used in the cleaning and maintenance of the public schools in this State.

1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, each school district shall ensure that the public schools within the school district use only environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance products in the cleaning of all floor surfaces in the public schools within the school district.
2. If the board of trustees of a school district determines that the costs associated with the purchase or use of environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance products for use in the cleaning of floor surfaces are unreasonable and would place an undue burden on the efficient operation of the school district or a particular school within the school district, the board of trustees may, after posting notice of the product to be used on the Internet website maintained by the school district, purchase and use a cleaning and maintenance product that is not an environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance product in the cleaning of floor surfaces for the school district as a whole or for a particular school or schools within the school district.
3. In addition to the environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance products for use in the cleaning of floor surfaces in the public schools within the school district required pursuant to subsection 1, the board of trustees of a school district may use environmentally sensitive cleaning products for use in the cleaning of any other surfaces.
4. As used in this section, “environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance products” means cleaning and maintenance products that reduce the chemicals, hazardous wastes and other environmental hazards to which pupils and school personnel may be exposed.

As used in NRS 386.422 to 386.428, inclusive, unless the context otherwise requires, “integrated pest management” means a strategy for controlling pests and weeds with minimal use of pesticides or herbicides.

1. The board of trustees of each school district shall adopt and maintain an integrated pest management policy to provide pest and weed control on the property of the district. The integrated pest management policy must include, without limitation: (a) The qualifications for a person to be authorized to apply pesticides or herbicides on any property belonging to the district; (b) Information concerning the designation of and required training for a chief or subordinate integrated pest management coordinator appointed pursuant to NRS 386.426; (c) A procedure for monitoring the property of the district to determine when pests or weeds are present and, when significant, for taking corrective action; (d) Written guidelines for determining when to take specific measures to control pests and weeds, which must: (1) Prioritize the use of preventive measures, including, without limitation, proper maintenance and sanitation to deny pests access to food, water and shelter; (2) Require the use of nonchemical pest or weed management before using pesticides or herbicides; and (3) Require any use of pesticides or herbicides to be carried out in a manner that creates the lowest possible risk to health and safety; (e) A system for maintaining records of reports of inspections of facilities, work orders and service reports for pest or weed control services, applications of pesticides or herbicides and complaints concerning pesticides or herbicides, including, without limitation, rules concerning the length of time that such records must be maintained; (f) A plan for educating and, if appropriate, training employees of the school district concerning their roles and duties concerning the integrated pest management policy; and (g) A procedure to notify school employees, pupils, parents or guardians of pupils and other affected persons before any pesticide or herbicide is applied on the property of a school. Such notice may be provided by telephone, in writing or by electronic mail.
2. The superintendent of each school district and each chief and subordinate integrated pest management coordinator appointed pursuant to NRS 386.426 shall maintain a copy of the integrated pest management policy established pursuant to subsection 1.

1. The superintendent of each school district: (a) Shall appoint a chief integrated pest management coordinator to carry out the integrated pest management policy established pursuant to NRS 386.424; and (b) May appoint subordinate integrated pest management coordinators to assist the chief integrated pest management coordinator in the performance of his or her duties.
2. An employee of the school district may be appointed as the chief integrated pest management coordinator or subordinate integrated pest management coordinator pursuant to subsection 1.
3. Not later than 90 days after appointing a chief or subordinate integrated pest management coordinator, the superintendent shall report to the Department: (a) The name, address, telephone number and electronic mail address of the integrated pest management coordinator; (b) The effective date of the appointment; and (c) The role to which the person has been appointed.
4. A chief or subordinate integrated pest manager appointed pursuant to this section shall: (a) Oversee any staff who are responsible for pest and weed control and ensure proper training of such staff in accordance with NRS 386.428 and the pest management policy established pursuant to NRS 386.424; (b) Oversee the work of any contractor who is engaged to provide pest and weed control; (c) Communicate with school administrators, the superintendent of the school district and the board of trustees of the school district concerning planned activities to control pests and weeds; and (d) Ensure compliance with the integrated pest management policy established pursuant to NRS 386.424, including, without limitation, the system for maintaining records and the procedure prescribed in the policy for providing notification before the application of a pesticide or herbicide on property belonging to the school district.

1. The board of trustees of a school district shall ensure that each school under its management and control: (a) Maintains at the school a material safety data sheet for each hazardous chemical used on the buildings or grounds of the school; (b) Complies with any safety precautions contained in those sheets; and (c) Makes those sheets available to all the personnel of the school and the parents of each pupil attending the school.
2. For the purposes of this section, “material safety data sheet” has the meaning ascribed to it in 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1200.
