  3. NECE OPERATIONAL SERVICES TESTING & EVALUATION • CONDUCT TESTING AND EVALUATION OF NEW PEST CONTROL EQUIPMENT, PESTICIDES, AND CONTROL STRATEGIES FOR MILITARY SUITABILITY. • PROVIDE EFFICACY MEASUREMENTS AS IT RELATES TO PESTICIDE DISPERSAL EQUIPMENT FOR SPECIFIC PEST CONTROL SITUATIONS. • PROVIDE CALIBRATION AND OPERATIONAL & PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE OF PESTICIDE DISPERSAL EQUIPMENT.

  4. BACKGROUND • IN THE LAST 20 YEARS, THE THREAT OF VECTOR-BORNE DISEASES TO DEPLOYED TROOPS HAS INCREASED. • OIF BROUGHT HOME THE INADEQUACIES OF CURRENT VECTOR CONTROL TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES - 1400 CASES OF LEISHMANIASIS. • DoD ESTABLISHED A NEW RESEARCH FUNDING PROGRAM (DEPLOYED WAR FIGHTERS PROTECTION).

  5. T&E PROJECTS2004-2007 • EQUIPMENT EVALUATION FOR THE AFPMB. • LARVASONIC SD 200I – ONGOING. • TURBAIR ELECTRAFAN 12 – NSN DEIGNED. • BIRCHMEIER IRIS KNAPSACK SPRAYER – NSN APPROVED. • THERMAL FOG APPLICATION EQUIP. EVALUATION – RESULTS BEING ANALYZED. • ELECTROLONTM BP-2.5 ELECTROSTATIC SPRAYER – EVAL. PENDING. • DWFP Program • YAMAHA RMAX UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE (UAV) – POTENTIAL MILITARY USE. • ALTERNATE FUEL BACKPACK SPRAYER – POTENTIAL MILITARY USE. • DROPLET ANALYSIS OF HAND-HELD AND TRUCK-MOUNTED ULV & THERMAL FOG APPLICATION EQUIPMENT – DATA IN PUBLICATION.
