NPMA Continues Engagement on EPA’s PIDs on Rodenticides

NPMA recently sent a letter to the EPA that outlined high-level alternative mitigation measures that the Agency could consider in lieu of an RUP classification. In addition to the alternative mitigation measures, NPMA also suggested many partnerships that EPA could form with industry to help achieve the Agency’s objectives. A few examples of these partnerships are working with the Agency to develop refreshed rodenticide stewardship training, in addition to annual training for state and federal regulators and inspectors.
This week, NPMA will be meeting with EPA to discuss our proposed alternative mitigation measures and suggested partnerships. During this meeting, we also plan on reminding the Agency that the additional proposed mitigation measures outside of an RUP classification (PPE requirements, carcass removal statements, etc.) are not only ineffective, but are also incredibly burdensome to industry.
