Environmental Protection Compliance Assessment Reports


Compliance Assessment of Unlicensed Pesticide Vendors in the Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley Regional Districts: Phase 3, June 2006

This report is Phase 3 of a multi-phase compliance assessment identifying companies selling non-excluded pesticides without a vendor licence, which is required under the Integrated Pest Management Act. In Phase 2, an overall compliance rate of 56% was observed as 25 of the 45 vendors identified as being non-compliance in Phase 2 of the assessment had become compliant. Over all three phases, the number of non-compliant vendors decreased from 115 to 20. The remaining 20 non-compliant vendors were sent warning letters at the conclusion of Phase 3.
