B. MICHIGAN LEGISLATION DEFICIENCIES
1. Registration
State authority requires economic poisons be registered
by the state to allow for sale or distribution within
the state. Regulations do not require pesticides be
registered with the Administrator of EPA.
2. Classification - General Use or Restricted Use
State authority identifies those materials that are
restricted use pesticides. It does not provide for a
general use category.
3. Certification of Applicators
Applicator certification is not provided for under current
state authorities.
4. Pesticide Disposal
Not provided for. However, the Michigan Pesticide
Association and the Hazardous Materials Control Committee
(several state agencies represented) are attempting to
form a working corrmittee to address this problem.
-25-
-------
-------
5. Cooperation with Other Agencies
The Director of Agriculture has authority to cooperate
with and enter into agreements with the U.S. Department
of Agriculture and any other state or agency thereof.
There are no provisions for cooperation and agreements
with U.S.E.P.A.
6. Registration of Establishments
Regulations do not require manufacturing establishments
be registered to produce a pesticide for sale and
distribution.
7. Book and Records
Dealers are required to submit to the Director records
of restricted use pesticide sales. Records for manu-
facturing and sales of non-restricted use pesticides
are not required.
-26-
-------
-------
C. TIMETABLE FOR MICHIGAN ENABLING LEGISLATION
Discussions with Michigan state officials on the Federal
Environmental Pesticide Control Act were initiated in
October, 1972. The need for appropriate enabling legisla-
tion was emphasized, however, none was proposed to the
1973 legislature.
Department of Agriculture officials advise enabling legisla-
tion hopefully will be introduced to the 1974 legislature.
It is anticipated current pesticide authorities will be
reviewed by the department and the pesticide advisory
coniniitt.ee. Also, it is expected these groups will draft
the initial pesticide enabling legislation by combining
and modifying current authorities. Subsequent to drafting
a new law, the proposal is reviewed by the Legislative
Service Bureau and Attorney Generals Office to insure
appropriate terminology.
Proposed legislation is presented to both the Senate and
House Agricultural Committee in an effort to find a
sponsor. Following review by the agricultural committees
the public is made aware of the bill thraugh public notices
in the news media. Citizens may testify before the appro-
-27-
-------
-------
priate committee before the legislature votes on the
proposal.
Any individual, industry representative, or legislator
may present to the legislature pesticide related proposals,
providing a legislative sponsor can be located. The
measure is then sent to an agricultural committee in each
the House and Senate. Generally these committees consult
with the advisory committee on economic poisons before
submitting the measure to regular legislative procedures.

2. Permits
a. Experimental Permits
Michigan issued one experimental permit in 1973 to:
Modern Aquatic Weed Control
Imlay, Mich.
for herbicide Aqua-H. Permit fee is $10.
Experimental permit products can not be sold during the
review period.
Such permits most often deal with non-food uses.
Involvement of food use requires a commitment of total
destruction during the permit period.
Criteria data include fish residues, water and bottom
sedimentation disappearance curves.
b. "Limited Permits" are issued in situations where considerable
information is known about the pesticide and only final
checking is requested before its acceptance for registration.
Such permits may limit the quantity to be investigated
during the review period. Fee is $10.
Sales of pesticides are allowed during the Limited Permit
period.
-60-
-------
-------
Michigan issues a companion permit to the Federal
Experimental Permit for a pesticide that is under review
for Federal Registration.

C. USE DATA ON PESTICIDES
1. Acres Treated:
Michigan farmers applied pesticides to 3.9 million acres
harvested in 1971. Approximately 3.2 million acres of
the acreage were treated two years earlier. Of approximately
5.8 million acres of corn, small grains, hay, soybeans and
dry beans harvested in 1971, approximately 2.3 million did
not receive either herbicide or insecticide treatment.
The use of herbicides was far more prevalent than insec-
ticides in all three years. This was especially so for
corn, soybeans and dry beans. Approximately 2 million acres
of corn were treated with herbicides in 1971, up very little
from 1969. The percentages of herbicide usage on soybeans
and dry beans were 70 and 05 percent respectively in 1971.
Insecticides accounted for only about one-fifth of the acres
treated with pesticides each year. About 70,000 acres were
treated for disease in 1971.
Compiled pesticide use data for fruits and vegetables are
not available.
Dealers sales records (see page 76 ) provide Restricted
use pesticide data relevant to fruits and vegetables.

-------

2, Pesticides Used:
Atrazine, alone or in mixtures, was by far the most popular
herbicide used on corn in Michigan. It was used on over
nine-tenths of the acreage treated before the corn was up
and three-fourths of the postemergence treatment. The only
other herbicide used to any extent on corn was 2,4-D.
Linuron was used on nearly one-half of the soybeans acreage
treated with herbicides. Three-fourths of the weed control
treatment on dry beans was with EPTC. As for small grains
2,4-D and HCPA were the primary herbicides used.
For control of insects, aldrin was used on three-fifths of
the corn acres treated. Aldrin and heptachlor were the only
chlorinated hydrocarbons with any sizeable usage in Michigan.
About 200,000 "acres of field crops were treated with chlorinated
hydrocarbons in 1971, only 3 percent of the total acres planted.
3. Method of Application
Survey results for Michigan indicate that the majority of
pesticides in 1971 were applied by the farm operators them-
selves. Only 11 percent of herbicide treatment was custom
applied, while 16 percent of the insecticide application was
custom. As in past years, surface broadcast was the most
common method of application. Band placement remained at
about the same level as previously.
•-72-
-------
-------
The effectiveness rating of herbicide on the eight field crops
was down somewhat from 1969 and 1971. Only about half of the
farmers reporting herbicide treatment considered the results
as good, while 37 percent gave only a fair rating. Four-fifths
of the farmers using insecticides reported control as good.
Corn: Time of Application
Information on corn pesticide usage was collected according
to the time of application, either preemergence or post-
emergence. Almost all insecticide treatment took place at
planting time. This was not the case for herbicide usage,
where 56 percent of the treatment came at planting and the
balance was applied after corn was up. About 10 percent of
the corn treated for weeds at planting was retreated after
emergence. A net acreage of more than two million acres of
corn received herbicide treatment in 1971.

MICHIGAN PESTICIDE PROFILE
PART III
A. REGIONAL/STATE SPECIAL PROBLEMS ON PROGRAM OPERATIONS
1. Pesticide and Container Disposal
In 1970 and 1971 a concentrated effort was made by the Depart-
ment of Agriculture and Natural Resources to remove all DDT
products from the market.
Some 12,000 retail establishments returned DDT products to the
manufacturer or to the Michigan Department of Agriculture.
DDT products collected wr.re :
35,609 Ibs. gross - dry formulations
3,377 gal. gross - liquid formulations
9,476 aerosol containers of various sizes and formulations.
No attempts were made to assay these materials for DDT
content.
Products given to MDA were accumlated, repacked for shipment
to Dow Chemical Co. and have been incinerated. However,
Dow will not accept further excess materials for incineration.
-89-
-------

2. Landfills
Although the state geologist has made studies for disposal
sites capable of accepting pesticides, none have been approved
for pesticide and pesticide container disposal.
Disposal recommendations from the Department of Crop & Soil
Sciences are:
a. use if legal
b. rinse and drain container, three times;
c. deep burial on farm or in a landfill that has no
hydraulic connection with groundwater
3. PASS
Michigan personnel have resisted the program for the following
reasons:
a. They do not want to report unverified accidents.
b. They do not want to reveal source of report (in case
of litigation).
c. They do not believe there is a pesticide accident
problem in Michigan.

B. SPECIAL LOCAL NEEDS
1. Tank Mixes
Herbicide specialists in the Department of Crop and
Soil Sciences prefer to recommend only the EPA approved
(labeled) tank mixes.
2. Special Use - IR-4
Dr. Don Cress, MSU Entomologist, reported this list of
IR-4 applications.
Onion application - parathion and diazinon for control
of adult onion maggot.
Apricot - Dursban application for lesser
peach tree borer.
Asparagus - Larmate use for cutworm.
Blueberries - Cygon use for aphid.
Maple and Birch Trees Carbar.yl and Trichlorfon for
saddle prominent larvae.
