EPA plans to cancel rodenticide products with single proceeding

摘要

EPA announced Tuesday it will move to cancel residential uses of certain rodenticide products that do not comply with the agency's May 2008 Risk Mitigation Decision (RMD) for 10 active ingredients. An EPA spokesperson tells Pesticide & Chemical Policy the agency "plans to conduct one cancellation proceeding including all rodenticide products for which registrants refuse to voluntarily cancel or adopt the risk reduction mitigation measures." It will be the first time the agency has initiated cancellation proceedings under FIFRA since carbofuran in 2008.
