11. Provide any additional information regarding application (how it was applied, amount applied, the size of the area treated etc).

I own 1 acre of land in X. We are surrounded by farmland and are accustomed to getting some drift from pesticides, etc. However the aerial application spraying (crop dusting) in our area has reached a criminally negligent level. The planes often fly directly over our home, sometimes at quite low altitudes, say 50ft. On Tuesday, July 6th at 8pm, my family and I were enjoying supper in the back yard when a plane suddenly flew over the east side of our property, while still spraying. It was humid, with a slight breeze from the east. We were all doused with the spray; myself, my wife, an adult friend, a 6yr old, 5 yr, old and 3 month old. Our dog, 2 cats and (formerly) organic garden were also sprayed.
