Stipulated Injunction Protecting the Threatened California Red-Legged Frog

On October 20, 2006, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California imposed no-use buffer zones around California red-legged frog habitats for 66 active ingredients in 33 California counties. Under this injunction, no-use buffer zones of 60 feet for ground applications and 200 feet for aerial applications apply from the edge of California red-legged frog habitats.

The enclosed document describes the U.S. District Court´s decision in greater detail for your information.
