. Cranberries; : the national cranberry magazine. Cranberries. years, because, without good quality and quantity of water, we can't grow ; Pesticides are also a very sen- sitive area for the cranberry industry, Peavey notes. As CCCGA spokesman, he is work- ing with other user groups that also want their say with respect to HR 3015, the bill which would restructure the Massachusetts Pesticide Bureau. The agency deals with pesticide registration, enforcement, health and safety, welfare and assessment. The CCCGA backs regulations that would both allow aerial application of pesticides and protect public health and environment.

Encroachment is another industry issue which requires positive public relations, accord- ing to the CCCGA spokesman. Increased development pressures in the cranberry growing region of the state result in more build- ing adjacent to bogs, bringing in new neighbors initially unaware of cranberry growing practices. Peavey is available to address local groups or to answer spe- cific questions dealing with the encroachment issue or any other matters regarding cranberrying.
