Health Canada Re-evaluation of 2,4-D on Lawn and Turf Uses

Health Canada's Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) is currently seeking input on its re-evaluation of 2,4-D on lawn and turf uses. As per usual process, the Agency is releasing its Proposed Acceptability for Continuing Registration document on the re-evaluation and is seeking input from stakeholders, including the scientific community and all other interested parties, to provide any additional information that may be relevant to this re-evaluation.

Environment Canada is currently inviting interested parties to consult the materials posted on their website. The 2,4-D Feature page is available at the Pest Management and Regulatory Agency website. The comment period will end on April 22, 2005.

Please consult the News Release and Information Note that were distributed to media earlier this week.

If you have any questions, please contact the PMRA Media Relations Team at (613)736-3500.
