Regulators from two state agencies have fined an aerial spraying company a total of almost ten thousand dollars.

Applebee Aviation has been fined by the state Occupational Safety and Health Administration eighty eight hundred dollars and the state Department of Agriculture fined the company eleven hundred dollars.

Both agencies are requiring the Portland-area company to correct the violations through new procedures and training.

For more, KBOO’s Jenka Soderberg spoke with Darryl Ivy, the employee with Applebee Aviation who first blew the whistle on the dangerous and unsafe practices by the company.
