Case summary

Based on the information provided, the SimPure Home Water Purifier DB10C-2KDF Whole House Water Filters in the shipment referenced above fall within the definition of devices under FIFRA section 2(h), 7 U.S.C. ? 136(h), and 40 C.F.R ? 152.500(a) as ?any instrument or contrivance (other than a firearm) which is intended for trapping, destroying, repelling, or mitigating any pest, [which includes virus, bacteria, or other micro-organism,] or any other form of plant or animal life (other than man and other than bacteria, virus, or other microorganism on or in living man or other living animals); but not including equipment used for the application of pesticides when sold separately therefrom.? The shipment that arrived at the border for import is in violation of FIFRA section 12(a)(2)(N), 7 U.S.C. ? 136j(a)(2)(N), because a registrant, wholesaler, dealer, retailer, or other distributor failed to correctly file reports required by the Act. As required by 19 C.F.R. ? 12.114, a Notice of Arrival of Pesticides and Devices (NOA), EPA form 3540-1, and a copy of one product label must be submitted. Therefore, these pesticide products in the shipment referenced above should not be allowed entry into the United States.
