Copper pesticides : environmental assessment of wood preservative, material preservative and antifouling uses.: H113-27/2016-14E-PDF

After the final phase of re-evaluation of the copper pesticides, Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA), under the authority of the Pest Control Products Act and Regulations, is proposing continued registration of products containing cuprous oxide, copper hydroxide, metallic copper and copper present as mixed copper ethanolamine complexes, for sale and use in Canada. Products containing copper-based active ingredients that are registered for wood preservative, material preservative or antifouling uses, do not present unacceptable risks to the environment when used according to the revised label directions. No additional data are being requested at this time. This proposal affects all end-use products containing cuprous oxide, copper hydroxide, metallic copper and copper present as mixed copper ethanolamine complexes registered in Canada. This Proposed Re-evaluation Decision is a consultation document that summarizes the science evaluation for copper-containing pesticides and presents the reasons for the proposed re-evaluation decision.
