of WDL versus the current pesticide product labeling.

As considered by EPA, WDL would make available via the Internet site- and state-specific use directions for pesticide products as downloadable electronic files. To access this labeling, a user would visit the Web site identified on the pesticide label, enter information identifying the product, and select the intended state and use site. The Web site would return a streamlined version of the pesticide labeling containing the language applicable to all uses of the product, such as hazard statement and first aid, and the relevant state/site specific directions for use (e.g., application to cranberries in Maine). Sufficient labeling for the correct use of the product would still be available with the pesticide either on the container label or in accompanying material. B. Overview of PR Notice

This PR Notice provides guidance about how EPA intends to implement WDL under this system. First, the PR Notice defines terms used related to WDL in this notice. It includes suggested language that registrants can use on the labeling affixed to or accompanying the pesticide container to reference the WDL portion of labeling. It recommends content, function, and security for the Web site associated with a product’s WDL. Finally, the PR Notice suggests a process by which registrants can request that a product’s labeling include WDL and outlines what information EPA expects to receive. III. Do PR notices contain binding requirements?

The PR Notice discussed in this notice is intended to provide guidance to EPA personnel and decisionmakers and to pesticide registrants. While the requirements in the statutes and Agency regulations are binding on EPA and the applicants, this PR Notice is not binding on either EPA or pesticide registrants, and EPA may depart from the guidance where circumstances warrant and without prior notice. Likewise, pesticide registrants may assert that the guidance is not appropriate generally or not applicable to a specific pesticide or situation. List of Subjects
