EPA v. Bedding Acquisition, LLC

Case summary

FIFRA NOW: 4/8/2026 BEDDING ACQUISITION, LLC Notice of Warning for Non-filing of Pesticide Reports Docket No.: FIFRA-04-2026-3897 The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulates the registration, distribution, sale, and use of pesticide products pursuant to the provisions of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA or the Act), as amended, 7 U.S.C. ?? 136 et seq. The EPA is issuing this Notice of Warning (NOW) pursuant to Section 9(c)(3) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. ? 136g(c)(3). As explained below, the EPA finds that BEDDING ACQUISITION, LLC violated FIFRA Section 12(a)(2)(L) by failing to comply with provisions of Section 7. Pursuant to Section 7(c) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. ? 136e(c), and regulations promulgated thereunder at Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.), Section 167.85(d), a pesticide producer operating an establishment must submit an initial report no later than 30 days after the first registration of each establishment the producer operates. Thereafter, the producer must submit an annual report on or before March 1st of each year, even if the producer has produced no pesticidal product for that reporting year. Pursuant to Section 12(a)(2)(L) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. ? 136j(a)(2)(L), it is unlawful for any person who is a producer to violate any of the provisions of Section 7 of FIFRA. Relevant definitions of ?produce,? ?producer,? ?establishment,? and ?pesticidal product? are found in Section 2 of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. ? 136 and 40 C.F.R. Section 167.3. This NOW only resolves BEDDING ACQUISITION, LLC?s civil liability for the specific violations set forth above for the instances described in this NOW. The EPA has the right to institute further enforcement actions for any additional or continuing violations. The EPA may also institute further enforcement proceedings to recover appropriate relief upon obtaining evidence that any information or representations made by Respondent were false, inaccurate, or misleading. Nothing in this NOW relieves BEDDING ACQUISITION, LLC of its obligation to comply with all applicable provisions of FIFRA and other federal, state, and local laws and regulations, nor shall it constitute a waiver, suspension, or modification of the requirements of FIFRA and any regulations promulgated thereunder.
