LABELING REQUIREMENTS Chemicals that require registration under the Kentucky Economic Poisons Law must bear a label stating directions for use, which, if complied with, are con- sidered adequate for the protection of the public. With few exceptions, the label must contain a warning or caution statement, designed to prevent injury to man and other vertebrate animals, vegetation, or other useful living things. The front or display side of the label should also bear the statement "Keep Out Of Reach Of Children". If the product is shipped in interstate commerce, the label should bear the EPA registration number. The label of the product must also contain an active ingredient statement which shows either the name and percentage of each active ingredient together with the total percentage of the inert ingredients, or the names of each active ingredient in the desending order of their percentages together with the name of each and the total percentage of the inert ingredients. The ingredient statement of any product may be of either form, except in the case of compounds which are highly toxic to man. The ingredient statement for products containing highly toxic compounds must list the name and percentage of each active ingredient. Highly toxic materials may also be required to be colored or discolored for the protection of the public health. The label provides the public with information on the uses of, and the precau- tions to be taken in using all economic poisons sold in Kentucky. The name and address of the manufacturer or distributor, the net weight or measure of the con- tents of any package or bottle, and the brand or trademark under which the product _ is sold must appear on the label. FIELD INSPECTION In order to adequately enforce the provision of the act, field inspectors are authorized to collect samples of economic poisons and devices and to enter any car, warehouse, store, or other place where economic poisons or devices may be stored for the purpose of inspection or sampling. They are also authorized to issue and enforce a written or printed stop sale or removal order on a lot of economic poison when the material being offered for sale is in violation of any of the provisions of the Kentucky Economic Poisons Law. They are authorized to hold this material at a designated place. PESTICIDE—EERTILIZER MIXTURES An important group of specialty products are the products in which an insec- ticide, herbicide, or other economic poison is incorporated into a fertilizer. These products must be registered under the economic poisons law and the fert- ilizer law and the labeling must meet the requirements of both laws. · KENTUCKY ECONOMIC POISONS REPORT, 1973 5 EXPLANATION OF TABLES The following tables are compiled by active ingredient. Manufacturers are listed alphabetically above their respective products. The examinations reported are official samples of pesticide products offered for sale in Kentucky. Of the samples reported, 13 samples were found to be deficient in one or more of the active ingredients guaranteed. Seven products were not registered when the sample was taken. The symbols in the right hand column of each table have the following meaning: P (Passed) denotes the amount of active ingredient found was not significantly at variance from the amount guaranteed. D (Deficient) denotes the amount of active ingredient found was significantly below the amount guaranteed. X (Not registered) denotes the product was not registered in Ken- tucky at the time the sample was taken. M (Mislabeled) denotes the product did not meet the label require- ments in all respects.
