Summary

The importer, Pauline Young, attempted to import a shipment of unregistered Virus Shut Out cards into the United States. All pesticides are required to be registered with EPA before their entry into the United States, unless certain exemptions are met, pursuant to Section 3 of FIFRA (see Section 17 of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. Section 136o(c)). The distribution of an unregistered pesticide, without an exemption, is an unlawful act under FIFRA Section 12(a)(1)(A), 7 U.S.C. Section 136j(a)(1)(A). The Virus Shut Out product is not registered with EPA and does not meet any exemption for lawful entry. Therefore, this product cannot be allowed entry into the United States and should be denied pursuant to Section 17(c) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. Section 136o(c).
