Environmental Working Group: In New Round of Tests, Monsanto’s Weedkiller Still Contaminates Foods Marketed to Children
June 12, 2019 - Latest Findings Come as Courts Levy More Than $2B in Judgments Against Bayer-Monsanto Over Cancer-Causing Glyphosate
All but four products contained levels of glyphosate higher than what EWG scientists consider protective for children’s health with a sufficient margin of safety.
The new tests confirm and amplify EWG’s findings from tests in July and October of last year, with levels of glyphosate consistently above EWG’s children’s health benchmark. The two highest levels of glyphosate were found in Honey Nut Cheerios Medley Crunch, with 833 parts per billion, or ppb, and Cheerios, with 729 ppb. The EWG children’s health benchmark is 160 ppb.

FDA In Brief: FDA warns about potential risk of serious infections caused by multi-drug resistant organisms related to the investigational use of Fecal Microbiota for Transplantation
June 13, 2019 - Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a safety communication regarding the use of Fecal Microbiota for Transplantation (FMT) and the risk of serious or life-threatening infections due to transmission of multi-drug resistant organisms (MDROs), as well as protections FDA has determined are needed for patients receiving investigational FMT.
Two immunocompromised adults who received investigational FMT developed invasive bacterial infections due to the transmission of a MDRO from FMT; one of the patients died. Because of these serious adverse reactions, FDA has determined that certain donor screening and stool testing protections are needed for any investigational use of FMT, as outlined in the safety communication.

WA State ATG: FERGUSON STATEMENT ON VICTORY IN HANFORD WORKERS’ COMPENSATION CASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Jun 13 2019 - Attorney General Bob Ferguson offered the following statement on a U.S. District Court rejecting the federal government's challenge of Washington’s law making it easier for Hanford workers to access workers’ compensation benefits:
“It was disappointing to see the federal government once again fighting against doing the right thing for the men and women of Hanford. The court appropriately rejected the Trump Administration’s attempt to undermine our state protections for Hanford workers. Hanford workers do incredibly important work cleaning up the federal government’s nuclear program. If they get sick as a result, they deserve the ability to access the benefits they have earned.
“I thank my legal team for the hard work they put into this case, and Governor Inslee, the Department of Labor & Industries and Hanford Challenge for their assistance and support.”

WA State Office of The Insurance Commissioner: How climate change affects your insurance
Growing evidence suggests that the worsening effects of climate change are causing droughts and severe weather such as heavy rain, hurricanes, tornadoes and floods.
Natural disasters can destroy homes, cars, businesses and crops, leading to an increase in the number and severity of insurance claims.
As a result, insurers in some parts of the country have stopped offering certain types of insurance coverage and many insurers have limited the types of coverage they offer. This has also led to higher insurance premiums that are often unaffordable for consumers. As a result, some consumers buy policies that don’t provide as much coverage as they need, while others go without insurance.
Climate change is not just a property and casualty issue. It can also affect consumers’ health. Poor air quality can lead to an increase in the number of people with asthma, which can also lead to an increase in health insurance claims.

WSDA: GYPSY MOTH TREATMENTS END, PEST TRAPPING SEASON STARTS
June 11, 2019 - The Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) completed this year’s final gypsy moth eradication treatment on Sunday, June 9, and has begun its annual hunt for pests that threaten the state’s agriculture industry.
Trappers are now setting traps throughout the state to monitor for the introduction or spread of a variety of invasive pests, including gypsy moth, apple maggot and Japanese beetle.
As part of the agency’s largest pest program, trappers will place approximately 24,000 gypsy moth traps throughout the state this summer. This year’s effort includes intensive trapping in areas that the agency treated for gypsy moth in May and June in Kitsap, King, and Snohomish counties to ensure that the gypsy moths were eradicated in those areas.
Gypsy moths pose a significant risk not only to agriculture in the state but also threaten Washington’s forests, parks and cityscapes. Gypsy moths cause extensive ecological damage by eating more than 500 kinds of trees and shrubs and have been known to defoliate entire forests. Last year, for example, Massachusetts lost a quarter of all their hardwood trees, including three of every four oak trees. Gypsy moths also reproduce rapidly, each female laying 1,000 eggs or more, meaning early detection and eradication is critical to controlling this invasive species.
In addition to the gypsy moth traps, thousands of apple maggot traps will be placed in Eastern Washington. Apple maggot presents a significant risk to Washington’s iconic apple industry, but the majority of Washington’s main apple-growing region remains free of the pest. WSDA’s apple maggot trappers play a significant role in monitoring for and slowing the spread of apple maggot.
WSDA is also continuing heightened Japanese beetle trapping as Oregon is attempting to eradicate an outbreak near Portland of this pest that feeds on over 300 plants. Traps will be set this year with an emphasis in the Vancouver area and near airports.
To monitor these and other pests, trappers place grids of traps throughout the state at various densities. Residents are asked (to) leave any insect traps they encounter undisturbed and report fallen traps to 1-800-443-6684. Visit agr.wa.gov for more information about WSDA’s pest trapping and monitoring program.
