C.A. 1st;
A145632
The First Appellate District reversed a judgment. The court held that the Department of Pesticide Regulation violated the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) by failing to consider alternatives prior to approving the expanded use of two pesticides.
California Department of Pesticide Regulation approved amended labels for pesticides Dinotefuran 20SG and Venom Insecticide. The amended labels allowed both pesticides to be used on additional crops and allowed Venom Insecticide to be used in increased quantities. The labels for both products had carried warnings of their toxicity to honey bees since their initial registration. In approving the labels, the Department concluded the increased use of the pesticides would cause no significant environmental effect on honeybees or the environment.
