Devices
Since the start of the pandemic, EPA has increased its focus on pesticide devices, particularly those that make claims related to microbes. The agency’s increasingly aggressive exercise of authority over devices like air purifiers, water filters, UV lights, and similar devices has caused significant disruption and confusion in the industry. In this session we review the regulatory requirements applicable to pesticide devices at the federal and state level, and we examine the current enforcement environment facing manufacturers, importers and distributors of devices. We also discuss recent developments in the regulation of devices in Canada.
Followed by a Q&A session
