EPA v. MANN DISTRIBUTION LLC

Case summary

On March 2, 2016, EPA filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order that will both initiate and resolve EPA?s claim for a civil penalty against Mann Distribution, LLC regarding an alleged violation of Section 7(c)(1) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. ?? 136e(c)(1) for failing to submit timely annual pesticide reports for its Warwick, Rhode Island facility for calendar year 2014. EPA requires that pesticide-producing establishments submit annual reports by March 1, covering production, sales and distribution of pesticides (and pesticidal devices) for the preceding calendar year. EPA uses the reports for compliance, risk assessment, and risk reduction activities important for protecting human health and the environment. Even those registered facilities that have not produced any pesticides or pesticidal devices in any given year must submit a report to EPA. The settlement calls for the payment of a $6,000 penalty.
