On March 10, 2021, the acting head of EPA's Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention (OCSPP) indicated in an internal memo that she believes the former EPA leadership was politically-motivated and cherry-picked data when approving dicamba registrations. A recent editorial in The Counter explores the impacts of this memo and questions the fate of the contested herbicide.

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Andrew Wheeler announced that EPA is approving new 5-year registrations for two dicamba products and extending the registration of an additional dicamba product.
