EPA v. DOUBLE B SERVICES, LLC

Case summary

On September 6, 2024, EPA filed an Expedited Settlement Agreement (ESA) that commences and concludes enforcement against Double B Services LLC of East Hartford, Connecticut ($500 penalty). The ESA addresses alleged violations of Section 7(c) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. 136e for failure to file or timely file annual pesticide production report(s) in connection with each registered establishment. The requirement for registered establishments to report production and sales information for pesticides and other pesticidal products/devices helps EPA carry out compliance, risk assessment and risk reduction functions important for protecting human health and the environment. Without annual production reports, EPA cannot determine where and in what manner pesticidal products are being produced, sold, and distributed. FIFRA annual reporting is a federal requirement and, while not enforceable by the states under primacy or delegation, Connecticut will be notified of this ESA.
