The US Department of Agriculture (USDA), the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and EPA investigated and confirmed the unregistered seed was distributed on more than 1,000 occasions. Syngenta destroyed the affected seed.

The US government concluded that there are no human health or environmental concerns with Bt10 corn.
