§ 14031 2,4-D Definition

This law simply defines what the term “2,4-D” means—it is any kind of the chemical called 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid.

Key Takeaways

  • •The law only gives a definition; it doesn’t set rules or penalties.
  • •Whenever you see “2,4-D” in other laws or regulations, it refers to any form of that chemical.
  • •You don’t have to do any math to apply this definition.

Example

A farmer reads a pesticide label that says the product contains “2,4-D.” The farmer now knows that any version of that chemical, no matter how it’s packaged, counts as 2,4-D under the law.

Because the law says “2,4-D” means any form of the chemical, the farmer can be sure the label is correct no matter which specific version is used.
