ALACHLOR AWAITS
FEDERAL DECISION
The Alachlor Review Board (ARB)
has released its report recommending
that the registration of the herbicide
alachlor be restored, but it is up to Agri-
culture Canada to decide if it will follow
the recommendation.
The board held 41 days of hearings
and heard evidence from 53 witnesses.
Some of its conclusions were:
• both alachlor (Lasso) and meto-
lachlor (Dual) are animal carcinogens
and should be considered potential
human carcinogens for regulatory pur-
poses,
• the availability of at least one of
these two chloracetanilide herbicides is
essential if corn and soybean production
in Canada is to remain economically
viable and internationally competitive,
• reasonable worst-case estimates of
applicator exposure to alachlor are
1,000 to 10,000 times lower than the
lowest dose at which a tumour was
• observed in one long-term rat feeding
trial. The board considered this a rea-
sonable margin of safety.0
