Abstract/Contents: | Announces the decision of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to ban the use of chlorpyrifos "for most indoor and outdoor residential uses; most uses in schools, parks, and other institutions; all uses on tomatoes; and uses on apple trees after fruit has begun to form." States that the "EPA's decision to restrict use of chlorpyrifos is a result of the agency's evaluation of the insecticide under the 1996 Food Quality Protection Act." |
