U.S. EPA will not Ban Chlorpyrifos

On July 18, 2019, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that it will not ban the use of chlorpyrifos. The action came in response to an appellate court decision earlier this year ordering the agency to respond to a petition from environmental groups that sought to ban the widely used pesticide. July 18 was the final day EPA could respond under the court’s timeline. More details on the EPA’s decision can be found here.
