  1. A number assigned to each pesticide production facility

  2. A number assigned to a pesticide by the EPA

  3. The federal agency responsible for pesticide rules

  4. A method of disposal of pesticides in a waterproof container

The correct answer is: The federal agency responsible for pesticide rules

Explanation The EPA, or Environmental Protection Agency, plays a crucial role in pesticide regulation as the federal agency responsible for creating and enforcing rules related to the production, distribution, and use of pesticides. Option A is incorrect because it refers to a number assigned to a production facility, not the EPA itself. Option B is incorrect because it refers to a number assigned to a pesticide, not the role of the EPA. Option D is incorrect because it refers to a method of disposal, not the role of the EPA in regulating pesticides.
