## Summary

On April 24, 2015, Region 1 filed a Consent Agreement and Final Order that both initiated and resolved EPA?s claim for a civil penalty against Valspar Corporation regarding alleged violations of FIFRA for the distribution or sale of adulterated pesticide products at the company's former facility located in Newburyport, Massachusetts.  Under the settlement, Valspar will pay a $40,000 penalty.  The FIFRA prohibition against the distribution or sale of adulterated pesticides helps ensure that end users and members of the public have a product that is properly formulated as registered.
