Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
docker: production image + Gitea Actions for monthly refresh
Dockerfile: self-contained image with corpus + Chroma + BM25 baked
in. Drawbar's compose pulls + runs without volume mounts. Built from
sources.json (labels schema), PRODUCT_NAME=crop_chem by default,
HYBRID_SEARCH=true (always-on for production quality). RERANK_URL +
OLLAMA_URL get set at compose time.

.gitea/workflows/refresh.yml: monthly cron (1st @ 06:00 UTC) does
full scrape → reindex → image push. Scrapes Bayer (~30 min) +
EPA PPLS row-crop filtered (~7h). Skips reindex+push if no corpus
diff. Tags pushed: :latest, :<sha12>, :corpus-<YYYY.MM.DD>.

.gitea/workflows/image-only.yml: on-demand or auto on code-only
pushes to main (paths: docs_mcp/, rag/, scrape/, requirements.txt,
Dockerfile, sources.json). Reindexes from committed corpus, builds
image, pushes. ~10 min vs ~9h full refresh.

.gitignore: corpus/ now COMMITTED (4,159 labels, 265 MB of .md +
sidecars). Lets image-only.yml rebuild indexes without re-scraping.
chroma/ + bm25/ still gitignored (regenerable binary indexes).

.dockerignore: drops venv, eval results, PLAN/README/CLAUDE.md,
deploy/, .git/ — keeps the image lean. corpus + chroma + bm25
explicitly NOT in dockerignore (those go INTO the image).

Subject: Registration Review Label Amendments Incorporating Mitigation from the
National Marine Fisheries Services (NMFS) Biological Opinions on the Effects of
Carbaryl
Product Name: SA-50 Brand Sevin 5% Dust
EPA Registration Number: 829-128
Application Date: 4/25/24
Decision Number: 595706
Dear Kasey Ray:
The Agency, in accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA),
as amended, has completed reviewing all the information submitted with your application of
the above referenced product in connection with the NMFS Biological Opinion on the effects of
carbaryl on federally listed endangered and threatened species and designated critical habitat
in accordance with section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended (16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The Agency has concluded that your submission is acceptable. The label
referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under FIFRA, as amended, is
acceptable.
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the companys website on your label, then please
be aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
Rodenticide Act and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is false or misleading, the
product would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E).
40 CFR 156.10(a)(5) list examples of statements EPA may consider false or misleading. In
addition, regardless of whether a website is referenced on your products label, claims made on
the website may not substantially differ from those claims approved through the registration
process. Therefore, should the Agency find or if it is brought to our attention that a website
contains false or misleading statements or claims substantially differing from the EPA approved

Decision No. 595706
registration, the website will be referred to the EPAs Office of Enforcement and Compliance
Assurance.
A stamped copy of your labeling is enclosed for your records. This labeling supersedes
all previously accepted labeling. You must submit one copy of the final printed labeling
before you release the product for shipment with the new labeling. In accordance with
40 CFR 152.130(c), you may distribute or sell this product under the previously
approved labeling for 12 months from the date of this letter. After 12 months, you may
only distribute or sell this product if it bears this new revised labeling or subsequently
approved labeling. “To distribute or sell” is defined under FIFRA section 2(gg) and its
implementing regulation at 40 CFR 152.3.
The Agency received the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services (FWS) BiOp on the effects of EPAs
national registration of carbaryl and posted it on the website on April 9, 2025. The Agency
plans to incorporate and implement this FWS BiOp when issuing the interim decision for
carbaryl. EPA will notify the registrants of any need to submit label amendments within 60
days of the issuance of the interim decision.
If you have any questions about this letter, please contact Carolyn Smith at
smith.carolyn@epa.gov.
