Mexico regulations

Economic Aspects. Pertinent statistics on the U.S. production and consumption of fluorspar are given in Table 4. For many years the United States has rehed on imports for more than 80% of fluorspar needs. The principal sources are Mexico, China, and the Repubflc of South Africa. Imports from Mexico have declined in part because Mexican export regulations favor domestic conversion of fluorspar to hydrogen fluoride for export to the United States. [Pg.173]

The following countries also have evaporative emission regulations Canada, European Economic Cormnunity (EEC), Japan, Brazil, Mexico, Australia, South Korea. Regulations in these countries have requirements that are typically less stnngent than the U.S. imperatives. Table 1 depicts the chronology of evaporative emission regulation developments in the United States. [Pg.239]

As a result of that we got involved with the state s Department of Education to produce an MCS awareness brochure that went out to all the school administrators. That work led to invitations to four pesticide conferences, and to the opportunity to work on drafting regulations for pesticide notification. We also got involved with the Department of Health and participated in an MCS prevalence study working group. One of the outcomes of that was the inclusion of questions regarding chemical sensitivity on a statewide survey. That study revealed that sixteen percent of the population in New Mexico... [Pg.48]

The use of open pits or ponds for evaporation of brine is widely practiced in southwestern states where evaporation exceeds precipitation [23]. For example, about 75% of all oil and gas waste fluids are disposed of by evaporation pits in New Mexico [30]. Evaporation ponds require large land areas, and they may contaminate groundwater. Today regulators view evaporation pits with disfavor because faulty pond design and operation have allowed salts to migrate into usable groundwater reservoirs [9]. [Pg.274]

Salt of aspartame and acesulfame. A salt of aspartame and acesul-fame is now available. The product is a chemical combination of aspartame and acesulfame in a ratio of 64 36 on a weight basis. This product was given 2 years temporary national approval in the United Kingdom (Statutory Instrument 2003 number 1182). It also has temporary approval in The Netherlands (Staatscourant, 17 July 2002), and it can be used in the United States, Canada, China, Mexico and Russia. In 2004, amendment of the EU Sweetener Regulation saw extension of the approval to all EU markets. In solution, the salt breaks up to form aspartame and acesulfame. The relative sweetness is 350 (HSC, 2003). [Pg.78]

Further announcements with respect to modification of the existing standards or to issue new regulations for the application of the new Law are expected. Most of Mexico s organic output is destined for the export market, primarily the USA, and presumably meets the requirements of the NOP and those of other importing countries. [Pg.14]

The effect of these resistances has been to drive chemical control from one insecticide to the next. In most parts of the Nile delta the cotton leafworms can still be controlled by some OP compound, such as chlorpyrifos, supplemented where necessary with the insect growth regulator Dimilin. But in southern Texas, Mexico, Nicaragua and Peru the multiple resistances of the tobacco budworm, and to a less extreme degree of H. zea and Spodoptera sunia, have made even 20 insecticide applications a season quite worthless, and indeed there is less damage to the cotton if no chemicals are applied at all. The only materials that can be relied upon to kill these multiresistant H. viresoens are the dichlorovinyl pyrethroid NRDC-143 and the Heliothis nuclear polyhedrosis virus. [Pg.34]

The more stringent regulations enacted by Western governments have led, in turn, to a delocalization of chemical activities to places where such rules are less strictly enforced. Nations like India and China have thus become world leaders in the production of some fine chemical intermediates and dyestuffs. Similarly in Mexico many maquiladoras owe their success, in part, to this process of delocalization. [Pg.41]

Methyl parathion is applied to cotton in at least 10 countries including five of the top 10 cotton producers. Once commonly applied to cotton grown in the USSR, methyl parathion is now more closely linked with the Americas, being dominant in Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. Despite US EPA regulations which forbid labourers from entering a field within 48 hours of being sprayed with the chemicaP, over 66 tonnes of methyl parathion are applied annually across several southern US states. ... [Pg.33]

Transuranic waste (TRU) is defined as waste contaminated with a-emitting radionuchdes of atomic number greater than 92 and half-life greater than 20 yr in concentrations greater than 100 nCi g (3.7 X 10 Bq g ). TRU is primarily a product of the reprocessing of SF and the use of plutonium in the fabrication of nuclear weapons. In the US, the disposal of TRU at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in southeastern New Mexico is regulated by 40 CFR Part 194 (US EPA, 1996). It is also discussed in more detail in a later section of this chapter. [Pg.4752]
