Section 6(a)(2) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) requires
pesticide registrants to submit information to the Agency which may
be relevant to the balancing of the risks and benefits of a
pesticide product. The statute requires the registrant to submit
any factual information that it acquires regarding adverse effects
associated with its pesticidal products, and it is up to the Agency
to determine whether or not that factual information constitutes an
unreasonable adverse effect. In order to limit the amount of less
meaningful information that might be submitted to the Agency, the
EPA has limited the scope of factual information that the
registrant must submit. The Agencys regulations at 40 CFR part 159
provide a detailed description of the reporting obligations of
registrants under FIFRA section 6(a)(2).
