Pesticides; Expedited Review of Experimental Use Permits (EUPs) for Conventional Pesticides

Краткое содержание

The Agency seeks public comment on a draft Pesticide Registration (PR) Notice titled "Guidelines for Expedited Review of Experimental Use Permits (EUPs) for Conventional Pesticides." This draft Notice provides criteria that, if met, can result in a greater number of food use EUPs being issued on an expedited basis for conventional pesticides. EUP applications submitted that meet all of the criteria identified in the Notice will be expedited through the Agency's review process and registrants will not need to utilize their priority slots. The Notice applies to all applicants for EUPs for non- antimicrobial, conventional pesticides. The Notice does not apply to biological pesticides because these pesticides present different risk factors and because the Agency has not heard that the lack of biological pesticide EUPs is an issue.
