The Office of the Indiana State Chemist has leveled $250 fine against a pilot who sprayed a group of two dozen detasselers with pesticide.
The Bi-State Helicopters Inc. pilot was spraying fungicide on a field near Williamsport.
Some of the chemicals drifted onto a neighboring field where corn detasselers were working.
They were taken to a hospital to be decontaminated.
No severe injuries were reported.
The pilot told investigators he didn’t see the detasselers.
