To whom must records of RUP sales be submitted?

Records of Restricted Use Pesticide (RUP) sales must be submitted to private applicators and the intended county for use. This requirement ensures that there is accountability and traceability of pesticide use. By maintaining such records, it assists in monitoring the distribution and application of RUPs, helping to safeguard public health and the environment. It allows regulatory authorities to verify that these pesticides are used in accordance with legal guidelines and safety practices.

This submission also helps facilitate local regulatory oversight, ensuring that applicators are using pesticides appropriately and that any potential issues related to pesticide use can be addressed promptly.
