EPA v. ALBAUGH INC NORA
Final Order No Penalty
Case summary
The shipment that arrived at the border for import had a label with the following language, ?Made in China.? This statement implies that the product was manufactured in China, yet the EPA Establishment is listed as 79693-CAN-4. The ?Made in China? language is therefore false and misleading. Therefore, the pesticide is misbranded pursuant to 7 U.S.C. ? 136(q)(1) and 40 C.F.R. ? 156.10(a)(5), and sale or distribution of the product violates 7 U.S.C. ? 136j(a)(1)(E).
