    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced the final cancellation of certain pesticide registrations and amendments for chlorpyrifos products, as requested by the registrants. This action, effective December 12, 2024, aims to terminate certain uses of chlorpyrifos, a pesticide, following a period of public comment and under the provisions of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). The order also outlines the conditions for selling, distributing, or using existing stocks of these products. EPA has determined that allowing the use of existing stocks for a limited time is not inconsistent with the purposes of FIFRA.
