{OSHA definition of "working life" number of years for chronic exposure limits} "The OSH Act requires OSHA to set the standard that most adequately protects employees against harmful workplace exposures for the period of their ‘‘working life’’ (29 U.S.C. 655(b)(5)).

***!!!!*** "it is unlawful “to detach, alter, deface, or destroy, in whole or in part, any labeling required [under FIFRA].” Putting the copied mixing directions on another product is considered labeling and must be done in a registered establishment and in accordance with the registration of the product to which the sticker is added" "the warehouse where the labeling is taking place must be registered as a pesticide producing establishment" "distributor must complete a signed Notice of Supplemental Distribution of a Registered Pesticide Product (EPA form 8570-5), however, the form can contain more then one brand name" "A distributor may not place a tag or sticker to a product " "container the unlabeled pesticides are shipped in must bear the label of the registered product." "The other substances you list may be both registered for pesticidal use or available unregistered for non-pesticidal uses. While the Agency does regulate the ***sale and distribution of unregistered pesticides, it does not regulate the ***personal use of unregistered pesticides. The personal use of products that are not registered pesticides – such as ammonia, ***bleach, kerosene, gasoline – may be dangerous, but it is not a violation of FIFRA."

Keep Out of Reach of Children Statement... Signal Word... First Aid (or referral statement... Skull & Crossbones Symbol and the word Poison (if applicable)... In addition, generally the net weight or contents also appears on the front panel." "Agency recommends that the shipping container be labeled with enough information for emergency personnel" "minimum requirements for booklet labels" "Generally, it is not acceptable to print the required label items only on the "blister card"" "Because the strips themselves are the pesticide product, they do not need to be individually labeled because 40 CFR 156.10(a)(4) requires labels to be securely attached to the immediate container of the product and not the product itself." "EPA does not have requirements for statements included on such a technical bulletin [marketing brochure] that is not a part of the labeling. However, it must not have claims that differ from the product label." "All states, under individual state laws, require that pesticides be registered in their state before they can be sold and distributed" "skin sensitization procedures state the highest nonirritating dose be used for the... tests" "It is not permissible to list a specific application rate on the distributor product labeling when the application rates on the registered primary product appear in a range." "Agency may determine a product is a pesticide, and therefore requires a registration, regardless of the product's label claims." "Suggestive terms such as "should," "may" or "recommend" may be confusing " "The language "For Industrial/Institutional/Commercial Use Only" does not prohibit a product's sale to consumers for household use." "labeling an empty container as described does not have to be done in a registered establishment [although other FIFRA requirements may apply if container is later filled before sale]" "If, however, the MSDS accompanies the pesticide at any time, it is considered labeling and must not conflict with the labeling EPA has approved" "pesticide being exported" "advises against directions for use that call for use of more than the net content" "do-it-yourself store would have to register as a producing establishment" "if the kit is considered anything more than the combination of separately named products (i.e., when the kit is marketed with its own distinct name), the kit must be registered" "states cannot require labeling different from the federally-approved label" "If you buy a product from a company and repackage it to smaller quantities for resale, how do you use the parent company's label" "TIf the individual items bear an abbreviated label, they must refer to further directions on the outer container" "Such stickering must occur at a registered establishment and be recorded per the requirements of 40 CFR Part 167."

The sticker must be applied in a registered establishment, the relabeling must be reported" "importing a substance for research and development" "If a product is manufactured as a topical antiseptic on human skin, (regulated by FDA) and also as a hard surface disinfectant (regulated by EPA), can the uses be combined on a single label...?" "Certain categories of products... need not be registered unless they contain a pesticidal claim... Deodorizers, bleaches, and cleaning agents..." "products for use against microorganisms intended for use on or in living animals are not subject to EPA regulation. They instead are within the jurisdiction of FDA" "The term “anti-bacterial” is also considered to be a public health claim which would require efficacy data" "label or immediate container must bear the establishment number of the establishment where the final production step occurred" "the label of a pesticide manufactured only for export does not need to be approved by EPA" "If the approved label(s) is visible through the outer packaging (e.g. visible through shrink-wrap), or if the outer packaging is an exact replica of the approved label(s), EPA does not need to review the kit label... when the kit is marketed with its own distinct name), the kit must be registered" "Intent for a pesticidal purpose is considered on a case-by-case basis and the Agency may determine a product is a pesticide, and therefore requires a registration, regardless of the product's label claims."
