Work Begun To Ban The Use Of DDT
The Environmental Protection Agency has started actions to ban DDT nationwide. EPA chief William Ruckelshaus announced notices to cancel registrations will go to manufacturers within a week, with a 60 day review to halt interstate sale of DDT and the pesticide 2 4 5 T starting January 18. Suspension orders could be issued without appeal, and a broader interstate ban would affect other sales. Ruckelshaus said the agency aims to answer whether DDT poses an imminent hazard and balance public benefit against risk, following a January 6 appeals court order for immediate EPA proceedings to ban remaining DDT uses.
