Agency personnel from SRRD met with Monsanto representatives (main
technical registrant for glyphosate) to discuss matters related to the
anticipated opening of the docket for the registration review of
glyphosate.  The company was interested in determining the overall
aspects of how the registration review process worked and the timing
involved for the scheduling of the preliminary work plan.  

A workshare proposal with the Pesticide Management Regulatory Agency
(PMRA) of Health Canada was also discussed.  The Agency is currently in
communications with PMRA in an effort to streamline and/or harmonize our
scheduling process together.
