Reregistrations

Several antimicrobials have been banned or severely restricted by the EPA based on documented or suspected toxicity or environmental problems. Others have been discontinued in the face of testing costs required by the EPA reregistration program mandated by the Pederal Insecticide, Pungicide, and Rodenticide Act (PIPRA) of 1988 (10). Some of the significant products that have become obsolete are 2,4,5-trichlorophenol/P3 -5 3 -47, sodium...

FIFRA Sections 3 and 4 pertain to registration and reregistration of pesticides, with clearly defined data requirements as outlined in Tide 40 of the US. Code of federal Regulations (51). About 120 different studies are Hsted, most of which are to be done on technical-grade active ingredients (TGAIs).

FIFRA23 imposes a system of pesticide product registrations. Such requirements include premarket review of potential health and environmental effects before a pesticide can be introduced in the United States, reregistration of products introduced prior to the enactment of FIFRA to assess their safety in light of current standards, and classification of pesticides for restricted or general use. Restricted products can be used only by those whose competence has been certified by a state program.

To illustrate the application of 2nd-order Monte Carlo analysis, we estimated exposure of Carolina wrens to a hypothetical pesticide in cotton fields in the southwest United States. For this case study, the pesticide is assumed to be persistent, and the goal is to estimate chronic exposure (i.e., total daily intake) at the local field scale. The input data are representative of the kinds of data available during reregistration but, for this case study, are entirely hypothetical.
