Summary

Directs the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency to delete from his Mirex orders of May 3 and June 30, 1972, the prohibition against aerial application of Mirex within coastal counties or parishes except in areas within the coastal counties or parishes where natural runoff would result in pollution by the Mirex of coastal waterways, and to apply instead the same standards applicable to noncoastal counties.
