Should you wish to retain the reference to your company's website on the Bacillus pumilus strain BU 

F-33 Technical label, then please be aware that the website becomes labeling under FIFRA and is subject 

to review by the EPA. If the website is false or misleading, Bacillus pumifus strain BU F-33 Technical 

would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute under FIFRA section 12(a)(l )(E). 40 C.F.R. 

section 156.1 O(a)(5) lists examples of statements the EPA may consider false or misleading. In addition, 

regardless of whether a website is referenced on your product's label, claims made on the website may 

not substantially differ from those claims approved through the registration/amendment process. 

Therefore, should the EPA find or if it is brought to our attention that a website contains false or 

misleading statements or claims substantially differing from an EPA-approved registration/amendment, 

the website will be referred to the EPA's Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance. 

The November 6, 2012, February 22, 2013, March 30, 2013 and May 7, 2013 EPA Memoranda and a 

stamped, accepted copy of the product label are enclosed for your records.
