Federal "Restricted Use Pesticides" are restricted
✓ <~~> when U.S. EPA determines that when the pesticide is applied in
accordance with its directions for use without additional restrictions, it
may generally cause:
•
Acute oral, dermal (skin), ocular (eye), or inhalation (lung) toxicity hazards to
applicators or others;
•
Significant sub-chronic, chronic, or delayed toxic effects on humans; or
•
A potential environmental effect, such as groundwater contamination or
hazards to non-target species.
When there is the potential for these or other effects, U.S. EPA will designate it
as a "Restricted Use Pesticide" to be used only by a certified applicator or, if
allowed by the label, someone under his/her direct supervision

Supervision Standards for Certified Applicators
✓ <~~> California restricted materials, which includes all federal
restricted use pesticides, shall be used only by or under the supervision
of a certified commercial or private applicator, unless the pesticide
labeling specifies otherwise. The certified applicator responsible for this
supervision must be aware of the conditions at the site of application
and be available to direct or control the manner in which applications
are made by non-certified applicators. The availability of the certified
applicator must be directly related to the actual or potential hazard of
the situation.
Some federal restricted use pesticides require the certified applicator provide
direct supervision and to be physically present when non-certified handlers
are involved in mixing, loading, or applying these pesticides and when they
