EPA’s chlorpyrifos meeting moving forward
The EPA’s meeting to review an ag chemical is still on the docket – to begin today.
A number of ag groups including the American Soybean and the National Corn Growers Associations had asked the EPA to postpone the meeting on chlorpyrifos, saying the EPA is not following a lawful process for “evaluating potential risk and regulation of pesticides.”
Chlorpyrifos is a widely used insecticide in corn, soybeans and other crops. The EPA’s Science Advisory Panel is planning to hold the meetings through this Thursday.
