Organophosphate Pesticides; Availability of Risk Management Decision Documents

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) have made available risk management decision documents for four organophosphate pesticides: ethyl parathion, phorate, phosalone, and temephos. These documents are part of the public participation process for reassessing pesticide tolerances under the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) and reregistering individual organophosphate pesticides under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).
