EPA v. EXOBAN

Case summary

On August 6, 2025, EPA Region 1 filed an Expedited Settlement Agreement (ESA) for Exoban, LLC located in Plainville, Connecticut. The ESA simultaneously commences and concludes enforcement against the Respondent for the penalty amount of $1,000. The ESA alleges violations of Section 7(c) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. Section 136e for failure to file or timely file annual pesticide production report(s) in connection with the Respondent's 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 Section 7 reporting requirements are enforced federally and not delegated to the states.
