| The
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) sponsors four regional
Integrated Pest
Management Centers (IPM Centers). A primary purpose of the IPM
Centers is facilitating two-way communication
between agricultural stakeholders and federal agencies including
USDA and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Washington
State is part of the Western
IPM Center.
From time
to time, EPA asks questions of USDA in the course of EPA's work
in
pesticide registration and reregistration. USDA in turn poses
these questions to agricultural stakeholders through the IPM
Centers. Six Pacific Northwest
states within the Western IPM Center (Alaska, Idaho, Montana,
Oregon, Utah, Washington) began, in September 2002, to formally
coordinate
their responses to such inquiries through a Comment Coordinator.
For each request, the Comment Coordinator gathers information
from growers, commodity groups,
Extension personnel, and others and then submits a response
to the appropriate Federal agency. For more background
on
the
Comment Coordinator
position
and summaries
of
Comment Coordinator
activity
see "Got
Comments?" from the November 2003 issue of Agrichemical
and Environmental News and
the FY 08 Annual
Report.
This page
contains the various information requests received from EPA or
USDA, the final response packages prepared by the Comment Coordinator,
and other
related
documents.
Note that this
page does
not include
pesticide-related information generated by EPA such as Interim
Reregistration
Eligibility Decision documents. These and other
registration-related documents can be found on EPA's
Pesticides: Reregistration Website.
Inquiries
are generally made about specific pesticide active ingredients.
Accordingly, this page is organized alphabetically by active
ingredient. For
example, to
see
the
communications
regarding dimethoate, click on or scroll to the "D" section.
Communications that cover policy issues, are crop-specific,
or are otherwise not pesticide-specific, are found under the
heading
"General." Occasionally additional information is received
after a formal response has been submitted. These addenda are
identified below as supplemental responses.
