Abstract

This exemption order announces EPA's decision to grant an exemption until December 31, 2016, from the child-resistant packaging (CRP) senior-adult test and younger-adult test effectiveness specifications for prefilled, nonrefillable ant or roach insecticide bait stations not designed or intended to be opened or activated in a manner that exposes the contents to human contact. Products qualifying for this exemption must still fully comply with all other CRP effectiveness, compatibility, and durability standards. CRP certification for products relying on this exemption must specify that the package does not comply with the senior and younger adult effectiveness specifications per the exemption announced in this document. This exemption was requested by S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc., pursuant to EPA's CRP regulations. The basis for this exemption is that a package that does not require opening or activation to put into use should not require adult ease of opening testing.
