The treatment will be carried out by a twin engine white plane with red and blue stripes. The aircraft's registration number is N903MD and it will be applying a formula called Trumpet from a height of 300-500 feet above the ground. Trumpet contains naled and will be applied at less than 1.0 fluid ounce per acre.

In accordance with Federal Aviation Administration regulations, the MDA is notifying the public before conducting aerial spraying over communities. They have also provided a contact number for any questions or concerns at (410) 543-6626 and more information can be found on their Mosquito Control Program website.
