Thesis (M.S.)--University of California, Davis, 2013.

The analysis presented here traces the controversial emergency plant health program to eradicate the light brown apple moth (LBAM) in California between 2007 and 2008. Drawing on political ecology, science and technology studies, and environmental justice literature, the thesis posits that the manner in which the LBAM problem was conceived limited strategies to study and address the invasive species with poor social, political, and toxicological results. Through this "problem closure" (Hajer 1995), spraying, either of pheromones or organophosphates, emerged as the most viable solution. Ultimately, I argue that the while the goal of the aerial application of pheromones to eradicate LBAM was to provide equal protections for all within the treatment areas---given agricultural agencies understanding and framing of the problem---the legacy of LBAM and its failure will likely be increasingly inequitable distribution of risks and protections in emergency plant health programs.
