Imprelis is a selective herbicide created by
DuPont. The active ingredient is
aminocyclopyrachlor, a synthetic
auxin. Imprelis was registered with the
United States Environmental Protection Agency for sale in October 2010. Sale of Imprelis was voluntarily suspended a week before the EPA required sales stopped. DuPont allegedly knew Imprelis would damage evergreens before seeking EPA approval. DuPont offered to compensate customers whose trees were affected. They asked that a claim be submitted, and said that they would send a claim resolution agreement, which would specify the amount DuPont would pay to settle the claim. By late May 2012, the end of the planting season, many tree owners had not heard from DuPont. Other tree owners who accepted payment agreements with DuPont had not been paid. Several hundred tree owners have filed lawsuits with DuPont. , they are seeking
class action status. == References ==
