If a facility is blending chemicals to make a fungicide cleaner; what labeling requirements pertain to the actual blending tanks and associated piping, if any?
EPA, under FIFRA and its associated regulations, does not generally regulate labeling of blending tanks and associated piping used in the production of a pesticide by a registrant. Therefore, unless one of the tanks holds a registered pesticide no labeling would be necessary for the blending tanks and piping under FIFRA. If one of the tanks holds a registered pesticide, the tank would have to bear the label of the product. Labeling for the end product must be present when the end product is released for shipment. The production facility and/or the blending tanks and related piping may be subject to other EPA regulations or other federal regulations such as those promulgated by OSHA. Note that this answer addresses blending tanks in a manufacturing setting to produce a registered end-use pesticide and is not intended to address custom blenders or refilling establishments.
