Regulatory Requirements for Reformulation of Liquid Pesticides

Back to VOC Emissions from Pesticides
Back to Current Reevaluations

DPR is responsible for reducing VOC emissions from pesticide products. Many pesticide products formulated as liquids contain solvents, and are a major contributor of pesticide VOC emissions. DPR has requested that registrants (manufacturers and distributors) reformulate certain liquid pesticides to reduce their VOC emissions.
