American Chemistry Council Supports Passage of PRIA 5 Reauthorization Omnibus Bill

December 23, 2022

The American Chemistry Council (ACC) backed the U.S. Congress' adoption of the 2022 omnibus  bill that contains the Pesticide Registration Improvement Act's (PRIA 5) fifth renewal to reform the pesticide registration service pricing structure. The law also dedcatesi funds for the EPA to develop techniques for evaluating antimicrobial pesticide devices, which is an important step in ensuring that products on the market are effective against particular bacteria, such as those that cause COVID-19 and the flu. The Center for Biocide Chemistries (CBC) of the American Chemical Society (ACC) represents the worldwide biocide sector and has aggressively advocated for PRIA renewal in advance of the law's expiry in 2023.
