if I get a perfect score in geoguessr because you clearly listed your business address on a sign, you get a five star review. The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management clearly prints their address in large letters on the notices they slap on buildings. Five stars.

I’ve kept my boats in Rhode Island since 2008 and all of my experiences with the RI DEM over the phone and in person have been nothing short of exceptional! Always knowledgeable, helpful, and very courteous which having lived another states isn’t the norm. Go RI! - a true boat friendly state!

I walked in today to register a boat I'd bought from out of state. What I expected was a long wait, grumpy staff, and to be told I was missing some vital document. What I experienced was the complete opposite - I was the only person in there, the gentleman who helped me could not have been friendlier or more helpful, and the whole process was completed in a few minutes. Top marks to RIDEM on all fronts!

Regarding mosquito spraying. Do I need to be concerned about my vegetables being affected?

Norman Martineau | Sep 16, 2019
RI Department Of Environmental Management | Sep 16, 2019

No. The EPA has established a tolerance (acceptable level) for the product that allows wide-area mosquito application on food crops, fodder crops, pasture, and grazing areas. The application is not expected to leave a detectable residue on food crops, pastures, or forage crops. Organic home gardeners may want to cover their gardens with a tarp. As always, consumers should rinse any homegrown or purchased fruits and vegetables with water before preparation or consumption.

I LIVE ON BUCKEYE BROOK ROAD IN CJARLESTOWN, RI , .MY NEIGHBOR SAW A COYOTE THAT RAN THROUGH HER YARD AT 7:00 WHAT CAN I DO TO DISCOURAGE HIM FROM MY HOME

Elisa Aptt | Sep 16, 2019
RI Department Of Environmental Management | Sep 16, 2019

Most wildlife problems are related to two factors: food and shelter. People may not always immediately recognize potential food sources or den sites. Identifying and then eliminating or preventing access to these will often discourage wildlife from coming too close to your home. Pet food dishes, compost piles, garbage, fruit trees, and bird feeders all can provide an easy meal for some wild animal, like coyotes.
