R68-7-4. Classification of Pesticides

The commissioner shall classify all pesticide products registered in Utah for "restricted-use" or "general-use" according to standards consistent with Section 3 of FIFRA. The commissioner shall consider all pesticides and uses classified as restricted by the EPA to be restricted in the State of Utah. The Commissioner may also restrict the use of additional pesticides if it is found that the characteristics of such pesticides require that their uses be restricted to prevent damage to property other than the property to which they are directly applied or to persons, animals, crops or vegetation other than the pests which they are intended to destroy. Individuals not appropriately certified are prohibited from using restricted-use pesticides, with the exception of those competent individuals working under the direct supervision of a certified private applicator.
