RED Facts: Sodium and Calcium Hypochlorite Salts

摘要

EPA is directed by the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act asamended in 1988 (FIFRA '88) to review all pesticide products containing active ingredients initially registered before November 1, 1984, and to reregister those products that have a substantially complete data base and do not pose unreasonable adverse effects to people or the environment. This pesticide reregistration program is to be completed by the late 1990's. The RED FACTS fact sheet summarizes EPA's conclusion, as set forth in the Reregistration Eligibility Document (or RED), that products containing a pesticide do not pose unreasonable risks when used as directed by Agency-approved labeling, and are eligible for reregistration. This fact sheet summarizes the information in the RED for sodium and calcium hypochlorite salts.
