make sure that the pesticide residue on food crops and in milk are not greater than the tolerance.

Tolerance ✔✔The amount of legally permitted residue.



FAA ✔✔The Federal Aviation Administration

,- In charge of the rules for applying pesticides by airplane.

- FAA certifies commercial and private farm aircraft pilots.

- Pilots must have the correct pesticide liscense from Oregon Deparment of Agriculture (ODA),

before applying pesticides.



Label Directions ✔✔The Pesticide label is a legal document under both federal and state laws.

Anyone who applies a pesticide in a way that does not agree with label directions is breaking the

law.



Supplemental Labeling ✔✔You must have special labeling for uses that are not stated on the

container label.



Restricted-Use Pesticide ✔✔-Any pesticide that poses special risks, even when used according

to the label, is classified as a restricted-use pesticide (RUP).

- You must have a pesticide aapplicator license to buy or use a RUP or be working under the

supervision of someone who does.



General-Use Pesticide ✔✔- If a product's label does not state "restricted-use pesticide," then it is

a general-use pesticide.

- General-use pesticides should not harm people, animals, or the environment when used

according to label directions.



3 types of pesticide registrations ✔✔Section 3

, Section 24(c)

Section 18



Section 3 ✔✔Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS 634) and the Oregon Pesticide Regulations are the

main Pesticide Control laws. ORS 634 states that each pesticide product distributed, sold or

offered for sale in Oregon must be registered with ODA. Each product must be registered every

year. ODA registers products that the EPA has registered first unser Section 3 of FIFRA.



Section 24(c) ✔✔Special Local Need

- If a pest causes serious damage to a crop and there is no pesticide that already is registered to

control it, section 24(c) of FIFRA allows states to give a Special Local Need.

-24(c) may add sites, increase rates, or change the way to apply the pesticide. These are different

from the federally registered label.

- The person or group asking for a SLN registration must give specific data to ODA. The data

must show that the product will control the pest and not harm the treated animals, plants, or crop.

The pesticide must have an existing tolerance set by EPA.

- You must have the SLN label with you when you use a pesticide registered under Section

24(c). If you do not have the label, you are breaking federal and state law.



Section 18 ✔✔Emergency Exemption

-Sometimes, there is a pest crisis for farmers.

1) A pest may invade a site for which there is no registered pesticide to control it.

2) The pest could cause farmers in the area serious economic loss.
