Intent to Restrict Certain Neonicotinoid Pesticide Products
DEC announced the intent to reclassify certain neonicotinoid (neonic) pesticide products as "restricted use" effective January 1, 2023. Products containing imidacloprid, acetamiprid and thiamethoxam that are labeled for foliar and/or widespread outdoor use and/or seed treatment will be reclassified as restricted use. The reclassification will ensure proper use by trained applicators, and require sales and use data to be annually reported to the Department in accordance with the Pesticide Reporting Law. This will provide a practical mechanism for obtaining information on use location and amounts for products which are currently registered as "general use" in New York State and can be used by the general public. Products labeled for directed application to trees and/or the ground around trees and plants are not included.
The following products have been identified as meeting the restriction criteria:

Neonicotinoid Reclassification Questions and Answers
The following questions and answers have been developed to provide information regarding the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation's (DEC) planned reclassification of certain neonicotinoid pesticide products as restricted use pesticides in New York State. If you have any questions regarding this information, please contact the Pesticide Enforcement and Compliance Assurance Section in the Division of Materials Management's Bureau of Pesticides Management at 518-402-8727.
What neonicotinoid pesticide are subject to this reclassification as restricted use pesticides?
Effective January 1, 2023, pesticide products containing imidacloprid, acetamiprid, or thiamethoxam that are labeled for foliar or widespread outdoor use or seed treatment will be reclassified as restricted use. Neonicotinoid pesticides that are labeled for limited ground application directly at the base of trees, shrubs, and plants are not included in the reclassification. A complete list of the pesticide products subject to this action can be found in the tables included above. In addition to this list, pesticide product registration and classification status for all DEC registered pesticide products can be found on the DEC's NYSPAD website.
What is restricted use status for a pesticide?
Restricted use status is when a pesticide is only permitted to be purchased, possessed, used, or applied by a certified pesticide applicator or the holder of a pesticide purchase permit. However, in certain situations restricted use pesticides may be applied by someone working under the direct supervision of a certified pesticide applicator when proper training and oversight is provided. The DEC bases pesticide product restriction status on the Environmental Conservation Law and the registration and classification of pesticides regulations, which allows the Commissioner of DEC to classify any pesticide as restricted use in order to protect the public interest and prevent damage or injury to health, property, or wildlife.
What is the difference between DEC and US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) restricted use status?
Restricted use classification for pesticides can be established on the national level by USEPA or at the State level by DEC. All pesticides classified as restricted use by USEPA are also classified as restricted use by DEC. However, DEC can classify additional pesticides as restricted use to protect the public interest and prevent damage or injury to health, property, or wildlife. Pesticides classified as restricted use by USEPA will have a boxed statement on the top of the label indicating they are restricted use. While pesticides restricted by DEC only, and not by USEPA, will not have this label statement. In the case of this neonicotinoid reclassification, the listed neonicotinoid pesticides are DEC restricted and will not contain this label statement.
Why does DEC intend to reclassify these neonicotinoid pesticide products?
The intent to reclassify these neonicotinoid pesticide products is an important step in protecting New York's environmental resources, including pollinators. This reclassification will ensure proper use of these pesticide products and restrict the sale of products. In addition, the sales and use data reported to the DEC associated with the application of these restricted use pesticides, which includes use location and amounts, will be evaluated and assist DEC in further protecting New York's environmental resources.
What impact does this reclassification have on pesticide applicators and residential users?
This reclassification will result in allowing only certified pesticide applicators to purchase and possess these pesticide products. In addition, certified applicators, and in certain situations, people working under their direct supervision will be allowed to use and apply these pesticide products. Uncertified individuals, including residential users, will not be permitted to purchase, possess, and apply these pesticide products. However, under certain circumstances uncertified users may apply to the DEC for a pesticide purchase permit. If a purchase permit is provided, the applicator will be permitted to purchase, possess, use and apply the permitted pesticide product. The agricultural purchase permit form can be found on the DEC's website.
What can I do if I am not a certified pesticide applicator and currently have these pesticide products?
If you have one of the listed pesticide products they can be possessed, used, and applied until December 31, 2022. However, before January 1, 2023, you must either: use or dispose of the product, distribute the pesticide products to a certified pesticide applicator, become a certified pesticide applicator, or obtain a pesticide purchase permit to remain compliant with the requirements of this DEC reclassification. Information on pesticide applicator certification and the agricultural purchase permit form can be found on the DEC's website. Under certain circumstances, a purchase permit may allow possession and use of these products while inventory is being exhausted. After January 1, 2023, purchase, possession, distribution, or application of these pesticide products without a pesticide applicator certification or a purchase permit will be illegal.
What can I do if I am a retailer and sell these pesticide products?
If you are a retailer and sell these pesticide products, you can continue to sell listed products until December 31, 2022. However, as of January 1, 2023, you will be required to obtain a commercial permit from the DEC to sell these restricted use pesticides and you may only sell them to certified applicators or purchase permit holders. Sale of restricted use pesticides without a commercial permit is illegal.
Can these reclassified neonicotinoid pesticides be used by a commercial pesticide apprentice, certified commercial pesticide technician, or people working under the supervision of a certified private pesticide applicator?
The reclassification of neonicotinoid pesticide products to restricted use will result in these products being DEC restricted, not USEPA restricted. Therefore, off-site direct supervision will continue to be allowed for these neonicotinoid pesticide products after they are reclassified as state restricted pesticides. However, if they become federally restricted in the future, off-site direct supervision would not be appropriate for apprentices or people working under the direct supervision of a certified private pesticide applicator. In addition, supervising certified pesticide applicators should also review the other regulatory requirements associated with direct supervision. For example, if a label requires on-site direct supervision, the certified pesticide applicator must provide this oversight.
Will the USEPA registration numbers on the listed pesticides change?
The USEPA registration numbers will not change with this reclassification.

Glyphosate Information
A recent amendment to the Environmental Conservation Law bans any state department, state agency, public benefit corporation or any pesticide applicator employed as a contractor or subcontractor to apply glyphosate on state property. However, there are exemptions to this ban to maintain critical infrastructure, manage roadside vegetation to ensure public safety, for the control of invasive species and pests of significant public health importance, and for research purposes. The law is effective December 31, 2021. A DEC letter regarding compliance with this amendment to the Environmental Conservation Law
Chlorpyrifos Pesticide Registration Cancellations and Proposed Regulation
July 21, 2021: DEC announced a regulatory revision to 6 NYCRR Part 326 to prohibit the sale, distribution, possession, and use of pesticide products containing the active ingredient chlorpyrifos. This regulatory revision was effective July 31, 2021.
December 31, 2020: the New York State pesticide registrations were canceled for 29 pesticide products containing chlorpyrifos and on July 31, 2021 the remaining fifteen pesticide products containing the active ingredient were cancelled. When cancelled, pesticide products can no longer be offered for sale or sold, distributed, or used in New York.
Enforcement Discretion - Applicators and Businesses
November 24, 2020: certified pesticide applicators must now have a valid, current certification identification (ID) card in their possession to make any commercial or private applications of pesticides and registered pesticide businesses. Agencies need a current registration to operate as a pesticide business or agency.
February 24, 2021: DEC will assess penalty credits, related to recertification, as prescribed in regulation.
Neighbor Notifications in Spanish Language
2020: ECL now requires that the 48-hour prior notification for certain commercial lawn applications, the information sign posted by retailers, and the visual notification markers posted for residential lawn applications be printed in English and Spanish. Other languages may be necessary. The requirements of the amendments, like the Neighbor Notification Law, effect counties and cities with a population of one million or more, that have adopted a local law to "opt into" the Neighbor Notification Law in its entirety.

Pesticide Products for Use Against COVID-19
Pesticide products used to disinfect surfaces or objects must be registered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and then by DEC. EPA has activated its Emerging Viral Pathogens Guidance for Antimicrobial Products to allow the use of certain EPA-registered disinfectant products against COVID-19.
DEC has created a list of products registered in New York State that correspond to the list of products identified by EPA. The list is posted on the Open Data NY website (leaves DEC website).
Note: This list is subject to change -- check back for updates.
DEC reminds users to follow the label directions for disinfecting surfaces for viruses, including adherence to contact times and appropriate personal protective equipment as listed on each product label.
