Abstract: This information collection program provides the EPA with the data necessary to determine whether to issue an experimental use permit under section 5 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). FIFRA requires that before a pesticide product may be distributed or sold in the U.S. it must be registered by EPA. FIFRA section 5 authorizes EPA to issue EUPs which allow companies to temporarily ship pesticide products for experimental use for the purpose of gathering data necessary to support the application for registration of a pesticide product. In general, EUP's are either issued for a pesticide not registered with the Agency or for a registered pesticide for a use not registered with the Agency.
