Emergency Exemptions

EPA has granted specific exemptions for the control of various pests to the 22 States as listed below. Crisis exemptions were initiated by various States, United States Departments of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, and the United States Department of the Army. One quarantine exemption was granted to the United States Department of Agriculture. These exemptions, issued during the months of June, July, August, and September 1995, except for the one in March and one in April, are subject to application and timing restrictions and reporting requirements designed to protect the environment to the maximum extent possible. EPA has denied a specific exemption request from the Oregon Department of Agriculture and has withdrawn a specific exemption from the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection.
