Contents Notes | This document presents the EPA decision regarding the reregistration eligibility of the registered uses of dazomet. Dazomet is used as a non-selective soil fumigant with fungicidal, herbicidal, and nematicidal properties. It is also used as an algaecide, bacteriostat, fungicide, microbiocide, mildewcide in a number of antimicrobial use sites. When dazomet is applied, it is quickly broken down into several degradates; the major degradate being methyl isothiocyanate (MITC). The Agency made its reregistration eligibility determination based on the required data, the current guidelines for conducting acceptable studies to generate such data, and published scientific literature. The Agency has found that currently registered uses of dazomet are eligible for reregistration provided the mitigation and labeling outlined in this RED are implemented.. |
