§ 12102 Pesticide Agency Exemption

This law says that the rules in Section 12101 do NOT apply to any government agency that gives out pesticide supplies for farming.

Key Takeaways

  • •Section 12101's rules are skipped for government agencies that supply pesticides for farming.
  • •The exemption covers federal, state, and county agencies.
  • •It only applies when the agency is giving pesticide materials for agricultural purposes.

Example

A state department of agriculture sends a batch of herbicide to a local farmer to help control weeds on his field.

Because the department is a state agency providing pesticide for agricultural use, the rules in Section 12101 don't affect this transaction.
