adequately document OPP's records holdings by conducting inventories to 
properly schedule records for disposition.
    OPP has determined that access by ADS and Labat Anderson to 
information on pesticide data is necessary for the performance of the 
contract. Some of this information may be entitled to confidential

    In accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 2.307(h)(2), the 
contract with ADS and Labat Anderson prohibits use of the information 
for any purpose other than specified in the contract; prohibits 
disclosure of the information to a third party without prior written 
approval from the Agency; and requires that each official and employee 
of the contractor sign an agreement to protect the information from 
unauthorized release and to handle it in accordance with the FIFRA 
Information Security Manual. No information will be provided to this 
contractor until the above requirements have been fully satisfied. 
Records of information provided to this contractor and subcontractor 
will be maintained by the Project Officer for this contract in the EPA 
OPP. All information supplied to ADS and Labat Anderson by EPA for use 
in connection with this contract will be returned to EPA when ADS and 
Labat Anderson have completed their work.
