Pesticides; Regulation To Clarify Labeling of Pesticides for Export; Notification to the Secretary of Agriculture

Résumé

This document notifies the public that the Administrator of EPA has forwarded to the Secretary of Agriculture a draft proposed rule as required by section 25(a) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). As described in the Agency's semi-annual Regulatory Agenda, the draft proposed rule intends to clarify, restructure, and add specificity to existing labeling regulations for the export of unregistered pesticide products and devices. EPA is also considering a minor new requirement for the labeling of unregistered pesticide products and devices shipped between establishments operated by the same producer to ensure that they are clearly marked as unregistered products intended for export in order to prevent them from inadvertently entering the U.S. market.
