dc.description.abstractThis paper researches State Managed Pollinator Protection Plans (MP3s) as a collaborative platform outside of the legal system that addresses pesticide use in direct regard to pollinator health. The paper introduces the concept and role of MP3s, and the analysis helps contextualize MP3s importance in the larger framework of pesticide regulation. Importantly, this research will describe MP3s as an important communication and cooperation tool within the regulatory framework; while not legally binding, these plans facilitate the difficult conversations between the predominant actors in the state who have a dedicated relationship to pollinators. Therefore, these findings can benefit any state that seeks to create coordination and collaboration between stakeholders, mainly between Growers/ Pesticide Users and Beekeepers/ Environmentalists, to view how other states have created a platform for coordination and crafted language to appease all parties while ultimately advocating for better protection of pollinator health against toxic pesticides.en_US
