Overview

The repackaging facility must have written authorization (repackaging agreement) from the registrant to repackage and use its label. The authorization must be inwriting, and the repackaging facility must keep a copy of the authorization on file and make it available upon request to an authorized EPA representative. Failure to have a written authorization may result in the repackaging facility being charged with selling or distributing an unregistered pesticide.

Repackaging facilities who wish to operate under the bulk pesticide repackaging policy must retain the written authorization for the period of time the authorization is valid. The length of time the authorization is valid should be reflected in the authorization and is at the discretion of the registrant. If there is no expiration date, the authorization must be retained as long as the repackaging facility is operating under that authorization. If the registration is sold or transferred, a new authorization must be obtained from the new registrant.
