Permits
Section 250
Section 250.160 Permits
a) The Director may declare a pesticide sale, use application
within or shipment into the State prohibited without prior permit. A permit
for sale, use or shipment is required for pesticides that USEPA has ordered
registration cancelled or suspended even when such order provides for specific
continued use registration, an orderly phase out of uses and/or continued use
until current inventories are exhausted.
b) The following pesticides must be accompanied by a permit:
1) Dichloro diphenyl trichlorethane (DDT);
2) Sodium fluoroacetate (Compound 1080);
3) Fluoroacetamide (Compound 1081);
c) A pesticide permit to allow the sale, use application or
shipment of any pesticide determined to be a permitted pesticide, when such
sale, use, application or shipment is in conjunction with a public health pest
control problem or a structural pest control problem, may be issued by the
Director of the Department of Public Health after consulting the Director of
the Department of Agriculture. In other instances the Director of Agriculture
will issue said permit after considering USEPA registration action, information
relative to toxicity and environmental hazards, and other factors meriting
consideration, including but not limited to, public health and welfare, past performance
of applicant and economic matters.
d) Application to sell, use, apply or ship pesticides requiring a
permit shall be made to the respective responsible agency on forms provided by
that agency.
e) No pesticide permit will be issued contrary to USEPA product
registration standards (40 U.S.C. 136a).
f) A pesticide permit will be valid for a limited period
sufficient to control the pest but under no circumstances shall that period
exceed one year. Such permit will specify the quantity of pesticides
permitted, the purpose for which this pesticide is needed, and any conditions
imposed by the Director in granting said permit.
g) There is no charge for the pesticide permit.
