Bloomberg BNA Daily Environment Report Article Includes Comments From James Aidala On Possible Chlorpyrifos Restrictions

On March 29, 2017, the Bloomberg BNA Daily Environment Report included comments from, James Aidala, Senior Government Affairs Consultant with Bergeson & Campbell, P.C. (B&C^®), in the article “Trump Administration to Make Tough Decision on Dow Chemical.”

[…]But undoing the underpinnings that justify a near-ban will take more than political will, said Jim Aidala, a senior consultant with Bergeson & Campbell PC. A decision that favors the manufacturer, Dow AgroSciences, and the agrichemical industry broadly, will have to be robust enough to convince the judges of the 9th Circuit.

“Saying ‘we’re not Obama’ is not a really strong rationale for denying the petition,” Aidala, a former assistant administrator for the Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Prevention, Pesticides, and Toxic Substances under President Bill Clinton, told Bloomberg BNA.
