**(a) In general** A State may regulate the sale or use of any federally registered pesticide or device in the State, but only if and to the extent the regulation does not permit any sale or use prohibited by this subchapter. **(b) Uniformity** Such State shall not impose or continue in effect any requirements for labeling or packaging in addition to or different from those required under this subchapter. **(c) Additional uses** (1) A State may provide registration for additional uses of federally registered pesticides formulated for distribution and use within that State to meet special local needs in accord with the purposes of this subchapter and if registration for such use has not previously been denied, disapproved, or canceled by the Administrator. Such registration shall be deemed registration under [section 136a of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title7-section136a&num=0&edition=prelim) for all purposes of this subchapter, but shall authorize distribution and use only within such State. (2) A registration issued by a State under this subsection shall not be effective for more than ninety days if disapproved by the Administrator within that period. Prior to disapproval, the Administrator shall, except as provided in paragraph (3) of this subsection, advise the State of the Administrator’s intention to disapprove and the reasons therefor, and provide the State time to respond. The Administrator shall not prohibit or disapprove a registration issued by a State under this subsection (A) on the basis of lack of essentiality of a pesticide or (B) except as provided in paragraph (3) of this subsection, if its composition and use patterns are similar to those of a federally registered pesticide. (3) In no instance may a State issue a registration for a food or feed use unless there exists a tolerance or exemption under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act [[21 U.S.C. 301](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title21-section301&num=0&edition=prelim) et seq.] that permits the residues of the pesticides on the food or feed. If the Administrator determines that a registration issued by a State is inconsistent with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or the use of, a pesticide under a registration issued by a State constitutes an imminent hazard, the Administrator may immediately disapprove the registration. (4) If the Administrator finds, in accordance with standards set forth in regulations issued under [section 136w of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title7-section136w&num=0&edition=prelim), that a State is not capable of exercising adequate controls to assure that State registration under this section will be in accord with the purposes of this subchapter or has failed to exercise adequate controls, the Administrator may suspend the authority of the State to register pesticides until such time as the Administrator is satisfied that the State can and will exercise adequate controls. Prior to any such suspension, the Administrator shall advise the State of the Administrator’s intention to suspend and the reasons therefor and provide the State time to respond.

**(a) In general** (1) **Regulations** — The Administrator is authorized, in accordance with the procedure described in paragraph (2), to prescribe regulations to carry out the provisions of this subchapter. Such regulations shall take into account the difference in concept and usage between various classes of pesticides, including public health pesticides, and differences in environmental risk and the appropriate data for evaluating such risk between agricultural, nonagricultural, and public health pesticides. (2) **Procedure** (A) *Proposed regulations* — At least 60 days prior to signing any proposed regulation for publication in the Federal Register, the Administrator shall provide the Secretary of Agriculture with a copy of such regulation.

**(a) Requirement of registration** Except as provided by this subchapter, no person in any State may distribute or sell to any person any pesticide that is not registered under this subchapter. To the extent necessary to prevent unreasonable adverse effects on the environment, the Administrator may by regulation limit the distribution, sale, or use in any State of any pesticide that is not registered under this subchapter and that is not the subject of an experimental use permit under [section 136c of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title7-section136c&num=0&edition=prelim) or an emergency exemption under [section 136p of this title](https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title7-section136p&num=0&edition=prelim). **(b) Exemptions** A pesticide which is not registered with the Administrator may be transferred if— (1) the transfer is from one registered establishment to another registered establishment operated by the same producer solely for packaging at the second establishment or for use as a constituent part of another pesticide produced at the second establishment; or (2) the transfer is pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of an experimental use permit. **(c) Procedure for registration** (1) **Statement required** — Each applicant for registration of a pesticide shall file with the Administrator a statement which includes— (A) the name and address of the applicant and of any other person whose name will appear on the labeling; (B) the name of the pesticide; (C) a complete copy of the labeling of the pesticide, a statement of all claims to be made for it, and any directions for its use; (D) the complete formula of the pesticide; (E) a request that the pesticide be classi
