Of course an attorney would be able to advise you, but I have
learned that you may have some leverage if there are roads
that you need to travel and there are not any other roads
that you could use. In that case you could pursue an access
issue under disability laws.
If there are other roads you could use that are not sprayed,
they would just determine that you should use those.
In preparation, request the MSDS sheets from the state
transportation department, request that you be notified prior
to spraying for roads around you. Investigate the health
effects of the products used and share that information with
others.
Since roadsides are used by pedestrians and many times
children waiting for buses, you could also enlist the help of
other groups who may have health concerns.
Thanks for your service to this country - I am really sorry
that this has happened to you. Good luck with your efforts to
travel safely.
