Research Project: **Location:
                            Southeast Watershed Research** Project Number: 0500-00007-115-000-D
                        
                        Project Type: In-House Appropriated Start Date: Jul 29, 2020
                        
                        End Date: Jul 28, 2025 **Objective:**
                        
                        Determine magnitude of the residues of pesticides in minor crops and conduct other residue studies as appropriate in support of registration petitions submitted to EPA by IR-4. Work primarily with reduced-risk compounds to replace uses that continue to be lost due to the tolerance reassessment mandated by the Food Quality Protection  bAct (FQPA) of 1996. **Approach:**
                        
                        All work will be in compliance with 40 CFR Part 160, "Good Laboratory Practice
Standards." Analytical methodology, Standard Operating Procedures, and GLP
documentation will be updated for the project as needed. Priorities and assignments
of crop/pesticide combinations for analysis are determined at an annual meeting.
Crop samples will be obtained from IR-4 Field Projects and analyzed by methods
approved by EPA. Laboratory residue data and all required documentation will be
reported to IR-4 Headquarters.
