I am looking for current research and papers on herbicide regulation,
current trends, mechanisms, and past problems.  If anyone could help by
providing information, I would appreciate it.

You might start by pointing your webrowser to EXTOXNET.

The best place that I know is a book called "The Herbicide Handbook of the
Weed Science Society of America".  This book is renued every 2 years or
so, and tells you all of the herbicides currently in use, how to use them,
how they work, toxicity,  chemical makeup, and how long it takes for them
to break down microbally and photatically.  It also gives info on which
ones are made illegal for what uses each year (it grows each year since it
costs so much to do new research on old herbicides).  Other sources would
be your local farm - seed store, who have lots of pamphlets on herbicide
law and regulation.  Good luck.
