U.S. EPA Proposes Policy on Nanoscale Materials in Pesticide Products
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) announced recently that U.S. EPA will obtain information on nanoscale materials in pesticide products to help the agency determine whether the registration of a pesticide may cause unreasonable adverse effects on the environment and human health. U.S. EPA plans to publish policy options in the Federal Register shortly. More information about the proposed notice is available at the U.S. EPA Web site.
