In CA, 2,4-D is a restricted herbicide and a prospective applicator must
study a manual, take a test, and secure a permit to apply it.  I know,
because I went through the process, only to discover that Garlon 4, also a
broadleaf herbicide, is quite effective when used on poison oak, thistles,
etc. that we wanted to control.  Garlon (in CA) requires a permit, but it is
not a highly restricted herbicide; one does not need to take the test in
order to secure an applicator's permit.
