(FIFRA or the Act), as amended, 7 U.S.C. ?? 136 et seq. The EPA is issuing this Notice of Warning (NOW)

reporting year. Pursuant to Section 12(a)(2)(L) of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. ? 136j(a)(2)(L), it is unlawful for any
person who is a producer to violate any of the provisions of Section 7 of FIFRA. Relevant definitions of
