7/11/2011 Update: I called Mark Lacombe of Northern Tree. He informed me that the City of Newton has received the official 21 day notice of the July herbicide application. I've left a message for Anne Phelps, Newton's Sr. Environmental Planner and Dr. Dori Zaleznik, Health Commissioner requesting a copy of the notice so that the Green Decade/Newton can notify residents.

The hearing is at the UMASS Eastern Extension Center, Waltham Field Station, upstairs conference room, 240 Beaver St., Waltham.
