Residue analysis - 2 corn and 2 cotton trials

Data from the study must allow for clear characterization of the level of imidacloprid in plant residues resulting from the manner of application expected to result in the greatest

concentration/expression of imidacloprid during the bloom period of the subject crop for year one. Data from the study must also allow for clear characterization of the level of imidacloprid in the

same crop/site from a repeated/consecutive growing cycle where imidacloprid is applied in a manner expected to result in the greatest concentration/expression. (That is, the study should

provide a clear characterization of any marginal change in the expression of imidacloprid in plant residues resulting from two seasons of applications to the subject crop/site where imidacloprid 

is

applied in a manner expected to result in the greatest concentration in the plant.)

Scenarios required:

Corn Trial 1: Year 1 - Corn, Year 2 - Corn, Study Termination

Corn Trial 2: Year 1 - Corn, Year 2 - Forage (ie clover, alfalfa), Study Termination

Cotton Trial 1: Year 1 - Cotton, Year 2 - Cotton, Study Termination

Cotton Trial 2: Year 1 - Cotton, Year 2 - Forage (ie clover, alfalfa), Study Termination

Forage crops from the second year of "Corn Trial 2" and "Cotton Trial 2" are not to be treated with imidacloprid. Repeat "Corn Trial 1" and "Cotton Trial 1" are to receive the same imidacloprid

treatment regimen in year 1 and year 2.

Residue analysis - 1 blueberry, 1 citrus, and 1 stone fruit (cherry) trials

Data must be submitted to clearly characterize the level of imidacloprid in plant residues during the bloom period, of the subject crop, from the first season of application as well as the second

season of application. Data from the study should provide a clear characterization of any marginal change in the expression of imidacloprid in plant residues resulting from two consecutive

seasons of applications to the subject crop/site where imidacloprid is applied in a manner expected to result in the greatest concentration in the plant.

Soil type for the site selection must fall within the range of clay-loam in order to limit the amount of leaching by increased organic carbon and clay content of the soil.

A procured test site without [background] imidacloprid residues is preferred. If the residues of imidacloprid or its primary degradates are detected in the soil, then data must be submitted to

characterize the background levels of imidacloprid in the soil prior to study. (Continued A1)

Required if an aquatic species exhibits a 50 percent or greater detrimental effect in Tier 1.

Required for all outdoor pesticide uses except for known phytotoxicants such as herbicides, desiccants, defoliants, and plant growth regulators.

EFED has issued guidance for this study (Memo from Denise Keehner re: Standard Method for Determining the Leachability of Pesticides from Treated Seeds, 7/6/2000).

Data to assess potential post-application exposure, i.e., transferable residue data, is required for the wood treatment use of imidacloprid (such as on wood, and wood-based composite 

products such as, but not limited to: utility poles, pilings, decking, wood shingles, timber landscaping ties; oriented stand board (OSB)).

- Residue data from (composite) samples, sufficient for analytical purposes of pollen and nectar (where applicable), to be collected in some or all of these studies.

-Whole flower and leaf samples and analysis of parent plus major degradates.

- Region of study - registrant should propose and defend geographic site selection relative to study requirements identified in this DCI.

- Analysis of residue translocation in the plant - the study should provide sufficient information to characterize the movement of imidacloprid/degradates into different plant tissues over time.

- Number of trials per crop.

- Study design must include spiked standard and negative controls and analysis requirements.

(Continued A1)

-Data to characterize the background levels should include but is not limited to levels, information on prior applications (rates and timing) believed to have led to the measured background

levels.)

-Ultimately, data must be submitted to allow for accurate recording of change to soil residue levels resulting from the application of imidacloprid from the first year to the second year under the

current data requirement.

Submitted protocol must define all application parameters used for the study and should include, but not be limited to the following:

-application parameters should not vary between years;

-applications to corn must be via seed treatment;

-applications to cotton must be via seed treatment and one foliar application made prior to bloom (timing of applications should be justified in regards to the label language and noted with

respect to recorded bloom period.)

-weather conditions during applications should be included;

-applications must be at maximum label rate, maximum number of applications, and minimal reapplication interval consistent with the product label.

Residue collection regime must be defined in the submitted protocol and should include, but is not limited to the following:

-Residues to be collected must be defined in the protocol and must include parent and any primary degradates.

-Residues to be collected in the primary crops must include nectar, pollen, and whole plant tissue.

-Residues to be collected in the forage cover crop must include nectar, pollen, and whole plant tissue.

-Residue samples of the different matricies must concurrent.

-Collection regime must define exposure during bloom period.residue collection regime must indicate whether imidacloprid residues are increasing, decreasing, or remaining constant during the

bloom period for the subject crop.

-Residue collection regime should also relate exposure during bloom period to the maximum possible [plant] concentrations during a growing cycle.
