DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Proposed Stipulation and Order of Settlement
Under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
On June 13, 2022, the Department of Justice lodged a proposed
Stipulation and Order of Settlement (``settlement'') with the District
Court of the Southern District of New York in a lawsuit entitled Tzumi
Innovations, LLC v. Regan, et al., Civil Action No. 21-122.
In a counterclaim in this action, the United States seeks, as
provided under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
(``FIFRA''), a civil penalty and injunctive relief from Tzumi
Innovations, LLC (``Tzumi'') in connection with Tzumi's distribution
and sale of unregistered pesticides pursuant to FIFRA Sec.
12(a)(1)(A), 7 U.S.C. 136j(a)(1)(A). The proposed settlement resolves
the United States' counterclaim, requires Tzumi to pay $1.5 million,
and imposes injunctive relief. It also resolves Tzumi's claims against
the Environmental Protection Agency in the litigation.
