II. Background

A. Purpose of the Meeting

Under the NAFTA, EPA and our

Canadian counterpart, the Pest

Management Regulatory Agency

(PMRA), have conducted a joint review

of aquatic and terrestrial plant tests and

test methods. The existing data

requirements and tests do not provide

the information needed to adequately

characterize risks to non-target plants.

As an example, the number of plant

species specified in the plant test

guidelines need to be increased. In

addition, tests are needed to assess plant

reproduction and community impacts.

The purpose of this session is to review

non-target plant toxicity tests under

NAFTA.

B. Panel Report

The Agency anticipates that the

Panel’s report of their recommendations

will be available approximately 60 days

after the meeting. The Panel’s report

will be posted on the FIFRA SAP web

site or may be obtained by contacting

the PIRIB at the address or telephone

number listed in Unit I. of this

document.
