Manufacturing-use product means any pesticide product other than a product to be labeled with directions for end use. This term includes any product intended for use as a pesticide after reformulation or repackaging.

New product means a pesticide product which is not a federally registered product.

Pest problem means:

(1) A pest infestation and its consequences, or

(2) Any condition for which the use of plant regulators, defoliants, or desiccants would be appropriate.

Similar product means a pesticide product which, when compared to a federally registered product, has a similar composition and a similar use pattern.

Similar use pattern means a use of a pesticide product which, when compared to a federally registered use of a product with a similar composition, does not require a change in precautionary labeling under part 156 of this chapter, and which is substantially the same as the federally registered use. Registrations involving changed use patterns are not included in this term.

Special local need means an existing or imminent pest problem within a State for which the State lead agency, based upon satisfactory supporting information, has determined that an appropriate federally registered pesticide product is not sufficiently available.
