Abstract/Contents: | Discusses Imprelis, "a lawn herbicide that included label restrictions warning professional applicators not to compost grass clippings coming off of land where the chemical had been sprayed." Claims that "trees in proximity to where the herbicide had been used began dying by the thousands," and subsequently "the USEPA ordered the product off the market." Notes that "the most sensitive plants to Imprelis we have found are beans." Concludes that "dozens of individual and class-action lawsuits had been filed and Dupont promised full restitution to customers who waived their right to litigate." |
