Primary Federal Laws Governing Pesticides

The video tutorial discusses two key federal acts: the Federal Insecticide, Fungicides and Rodenticide Act and the Federal Environmental Pesticide Control Act. These acts require the registration of chemicals produced or imported into the U.S., with specific labeling, use, storage, instruction, and training requirements. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plays a crucial role in granting permissions and setting limitations on these chemicals to protect the environment and ensure consumer safety. If limitations are not followed, the EPA can restrict or ban the chemicals.
