In Maryland if you are an organization or gov't agency not a commercial entity and not doing this for pay, and someone with your organization has a pesticide applicators license then volunteers can work directly with that licensed person under their supervision
to apply herbicides. The regs may have changed recently to require that they be doing this to get hours and experience for their registered technicians or applicators licenses. Here's the link to the Maryland Department of Agriculture that regulate pesticide
application licenses. </div>

We were told the same in Maryland, eastern shore counties, as individuals not employed by landscapers, etc., could not register. <br>
