Federal and state agencies may have overlapping jurisdiction over contaminated sites. Property owners may be responsible for ensuring that their property meets all health and environmental laws regarding pesticide contamination of soil. Legal jurisdiction and responsibility for remediation must be determined on a case-by-case basis.
