The move is widely seen by environmental advocates as influenced by the chemical industry, in particular the <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/2017\/04\/dow-dupont-mega-merger-moving-forward-eu-raising-food-security-concerns\/\">new agrichemical conglomerate DowDuPont<\/a>, which completed a megamerger in September. The Trump Administration\u2019s ongoing willingness to do the bidding of the chemical and pesticide industry means that voters must speak out to their elected representatives to stem the tide of chemical poisonings in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>In 2014, the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) sued the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for its failure to comply with the Endangered Species Act (ESA), which requires the agency&#8217;s pesticide registration process to include consultations with federal wildlife agencies, including NMFS and the Fish and Wildlife Service. In this case, the pesticides in question are <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/resources\/pesticide-gateway?pesticideid=17\">chlorpyrifos<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/resources\/pesticide-gateway?pesticideid=44\">malathion<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/resources\/pesticide-gateway?pesticideid=24\">diazinon<\/a>, three highly toxic chemicals used as nerve agents during WW2 and registered as pesticides since the 1960s. EPA\u2019s failure to consult with these agencies is a chronic problem in the pesticide registration and review process, leaving critical gaps in the protection of endangered species, and costing taxpayers significant sums when a lawsuit is the only option to force agency compliance with the law. CBD\u2019s lawsuit resulted in an agreement that EPA would complete its assessment by the end of 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Under Section 7 of ESA, any agency action must find that it \u201cis not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any endangered species or threatened species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of habitat.\u201d Earlier this year, EPA released its first biological evaluation analyzing \u201cnation-wide effects\u201d of the three chemicals, as required by the settlement agreement, finding that chlorpyrifos and malathion are likely to have a detrimental effect on 97% of endangered species, with diazinon likely to adversely affect 78%.<\/p>\n<p>After EPA\u2019s evaluation, NMFS is required to analyze EPA\u2019s data and come up with actions that would limit the effect of these chemicals on endangered species habitat. Earlier this year, <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/2017\/04\/dow-urges-trump-administration-ignore-findings-pesticide-impacts-endangered-species\/\">Dow Chemical asked the Trump Administration<\/a> to: (i) ignore EPA\u2019s evaluation; (ii) set aside the development of any NMFS actions that would address concerns in the evaluation; and (iii) file a court motion requesting a delay of NMFS 2017 deadline.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt decided to ignore the agency\u2019s own science in its <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/2017\/03\/epa-reverses-course-allows-continued-use-highly-neurotoxic-pesticide-chlorpyrifos\/\">decision to permit the continued use of chlorpyrifos<\/a> in agriculture. There is no indication whether NMFS continued to work on any actions related to EPA\u2019s biological evaluation (as outlined in request (ii)), but the Trump Administration is now fulfilling its third request from Dow by filing a motion to delay NMFS 2017 deadline. If the court agrees with the Trump Administration and grants a delay, it will be another two years before the roughly 1,800 endangered species throughout the U.S. are protected from these toxic chemicals.<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that Dow Chemical contributed $1 million dollars to President Trump\u2019s inauguration day festivities, and the company&#8217;s CEO held a <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/2017\/06\/dow-chemical-influence-epa-administrators-decision-reverse-chlorpyrifos-ban\/\">\u00a0closed door meeting with EPA Administrator Pruitt<\/a>\u00a0only 20 days before the agency\u2019s decision to allow continued use of chlorpyrifos.<\/p>\n<p>Fight back against industry influence in our governmental decisions by <a href=\"http:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/2017\/08\/ask-senators-co-sponsor-bill-ban-chlorpyrifos-neurotoxic-pesticide-harms-children-epa-reversal\/\">urging your Senator to co-sponsor a bill to ban chlorpyrifos<\/a>.

The founders, who established Beyond Pesticides (originally as National Coalition Against the Misuse of Pesticides) as a nonprofit membership organization in 1981, felt that without the existence of such an organized, national network, local, state and national pesticide policy would become, under chemical industry pressure, increasingly unresponsive to public health and environmental concerns. Beyond Pesticides believes that people must have a voice in decisions that affect them directly. We believe decisions should not be made for us by chemical companies or by decision-makers who either do not have all of the facts or refuse to consider them. Learn more about our work, read A Year in Review\u20142021, our accomplishments are your victories! Beyond Pesticides seeks to protect healthy air, water, land, and food for ourselves and future generations. By forging ties with governments, nonprofits, and people who rely on these natural resources, we reduce the need for unnecessary pesticide use and protect public health and the environment. Beyond Pesticides provides hands-on services to the public and supports local action by: identifying and interpreting hazards; and, designing safe pest management programs. With the information provided by Beyond Pesticides, people may not only be able to make informed choices and adopt practices that protect themselves and their families from unnecessary exposure to pesticides, but they will be able to effect changes on community-wide pest management decisions and policies that govern pesticide use, such as pesticide uses in parks, schools, for community insect control and along roadsides.

The founders, who established Beyond Pesticides (originally as National Coalition Against the Misuse of Pesticides) as a nonprofit membership organization in 1981, felt that without the existence of such an organized, national network, local, state and national pesticide policy would become, under chemical industry pressure, increasingly unresponsive to public health and environmental concerns. Beyond Pesticides believes that people must have a voice in decisions that affect them directly. We believe decisions should not be made for us by chemical companies or by decision-makers who either do not have all of the facts or refuse to consider them. Learn more about our work, read A Year in Review\u20142021, our accomplishments are your victories! Beyond Pesticides seeks to protect healthy air, water, land, and food for ourselves and future generations. By forging ties with governments, nonprofits, and people who rely on these natural resources, we reduce the need for unnecessary pesticide use and protect public health and the environment. Beyond Pesticides provides hands-on services to the public and supports local action by: identifying and interpreting hazards; and, designing safe pest management programs. With the information provided by Beyond Pesticides, people may not only be able to make informed choices and adopt practices that protect themselves and their families from unnecessary exposure to pesticides, but they will be able to effect changes on community-wide pest management decisions and policies that govern pesticide use, such as pesticide uses in parks, schools, for community insect control and along roadsides. Beyond Pesticides believes that people must have a voice in decisions which affect them directly.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.beyondpesticides.org","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/beyondpesticides\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/beyondpesticides\/","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/beyond-pesticides\/","https:\/\/x.com\/ByondPesticides","https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/bpncamp\/"],"url":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/author\/beyond-pesticides\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21603","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21603"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21603\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21613,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21603\/revisions\/21613"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21603"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21603"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beyondpesticides.org\/dailynewsblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21603"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
