EPA Axes Pesticides Over Unpaid Maintenance Fees
Published Date: 8/5/2025
Notice
Summary
The EPA is planning to cancel some pesticide registrations because companies either asked to cancel them or didn’t pay their 2025 fees. If no one objects by the deadline, these cancellations will go through, meaning those pesticides can’t be sold or used anymore. This affects pesticide makers and users, so keep an eye on deadlines and payments to avoid losing your product registrations!
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.
Voluntary pesticide registration cancellations
Some pesticide registrants asked EPA to voluntarily cancel specific product registrations as part of the 2025 registration maintenance fee process. If no substantive comments are filed and registrants do not withdraw their requests by the close of the comment period, EPA will issue orders cancelling those registrations and those products can no longer be sold or used except as allowed in the final cancellation orders.
Cancellations for non-payment of 2025 fees
EPA will issue cancellation orders for pesticide registrations listed in Unit III if registrants did not respond or did not pay required 2025 maintenance fees. Unless registrants make prompt payment of the fees due, the listed registrations will be cancelled and the associated products will no longer be able to be sold or used except as allowed by the final order.
