SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA's Registration Division's Labeling 
Center for Excellence (LCE) within the Office of Pesticide Programs 
(OPP) originally developed this manual to serve as a training tool for 
its new employees and as guidance for product management team members 
who are responsible for performing label reviews. Initially, 
availability of the Label Review Manual was announced in the Federal 
Register of February 8, 1995 (60 FR 7539) (FRL-4934-2). Since then, the 
Agency has received comments and suggestions from OPP label reviewers 
as well as the regulated community. Accordingly, the manual has been 
revised to address these comments and to reflect current changes in 
Agency policy. It is the goal of this manual to improve the quality of 
labels as well as increase the consistency of label reviews.
    The Label Review Manual is updated on an ``as needed'' basis to 
reflect new and changing labeling policies.
