department, and such registration shall be renewed annually.
(2) The registrant shall file with the department a statement including:
(a) The name and address of the registrant and the name and address of
the person whose name will appear on the label, if other than the
registrant; and
(b) the name of the pesticide; and
(c) a complete copy of the labeling except for annual renewals where the
registrant has certified that the product label on file with the
department is unchanged; and
(d) if requested by the director the registrant shall furnish efficacy
data upon which all the label claims are based for those products
registered for special local needs as provided for in Section 24(c) of the
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, Rodenticide Act; and
(e) such other information as the director may require.
(3) Contents of the label:
(a) All pesticide labels shall contain statements, words, graphic
material and any other information required by federal laws; and
(b) all labels for spray adjuvants shall contain but are not limited to:
1. The name of the pesticide; and
2. the name and address of the manufacturer. An unqualified name
and address listed on the label shall be considered the
manufacturer's name and address; and
3. the registrant's name and address. If the registrant's name
appears on the label and the registrant is not the manufacturer, it
must be qualified by appropriate wording such as "packaged for or
distributed by"; and
4. the net contents; and
5. the name and type of functioning agents. If more than three (3)
agents are present, only the three (3) principal agents need be
named; and
6. the total percentage of constituents ineffective as a spray
adjuvant; and
7. directions for use.
(4) Pesticides which have identical ingredient statements, identical
label claims, are manufactured by the same company, and the labels of which
bear a designation identifying the products as the same pesticide may be
registered as a single pesticide provided the additional product names and
labels are supplied and specified as one (1) pesticide.
(5) The director may register a pesticide if he determines that, when
considered in connection with any restrictions imposed under section 22-3419,
Idaho Code:
(a) Its composition is such as to warrant the proposed claims for it; and
(b) its labeling and other material required to be submitted comply with
requirements of federal law and Idaho law; and
(c) it will not cause an unreasonable adverse effect on the environment;
and
(d) in the case of an application for registration for a special local
need:
1. A special local need exists, and
2. authority to issue the registration in question has been obtained
from the administrator of EPA, pursuant to Section 24(c), Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, Rodenticide Act.
(6) The registrant shall pay an annual registration fee as prescribed by
rule.
(7) If the application for renewal is not filed with the department prior
to January 1 of each year a late penalty fee of five dollars ($5.00) per
product shall be assessed and added to the original fee and shall be paid
prior to the issuing of the renewal registration. No penalty fee shall be
assessed if the applicant furnishes an affidavit stating that he did not
distribute such unregistered pesticide subsequent to the expiration of
registration of that pesticide.
(8) The director, whenever he deems it necessary in the administration of
this act, may require the submission of the complete formula of any pesticide.
(9) A registration shall expire on December 31 following issuance unless
the registration has been suspended or revoked as provided for in paragraph
(10) of this section.
(10) Refusal to register, suspension:
(a) If it does not appear to the director that the composition of the
pesticide is such as to warrant the proposed claims for it, or if the
pesticide and its labeling and other material required to be submitted do
not comply with the provisions of this act or rules adopted thereunder, he
shall notify the applicant of the manner in which the pesticide, labeling
or other material required to be submitted fails to comply with the
provisions of this act so as to afford the applicant an opportunity to
make the necessary corrections. If, upon receipt of such notice, the
applicant does not make the required changes, the director may refuse to
register the pesticide. The applicant may request a hearing as provided
for in the provisions of chapter 52, title 67, Idaho Code.
(b) When the director determines that a pesticide or its labeling does
not comply with the provisions of this act or the rules adopted
thereunder, or when necessary to prevent unreasonable adverse effects on
the environment, he may suspend, revoke, or modify the registration of
such pesticide in accordance with the provisions of chapter 52, title 67,
Idaho Code.
