(1) A decision review time that would otherwise end on a Saturday, Sunday, or 
federal holiday, will be extended to end on the next business day. 
(2) All requests for new uses (food and/or nonfood) contained in any applica-
tion for a new active ingredient or a first food use are covered by the base fee for 
that new active ingredient or first food use application and retain the same deci-
sion time review period as the new active ingredient or first food use application. 
The application must be received by the agency in one package. The base fee for 
the category covers a maximum of five new products. Each application for an ad-
ditional new product registration and new inert approval that is submitted in the 
new active ingredient application package or first food use application package is 
subject to the registration service fee for a new product or a new inert approval. 
All such associated applications that are submitted together will be subject to the 
new active ingredient or first food use decision review time. In the case of a new 
active ingredient application, until that new active ingredient is approved, any 
subsequent application for another new product containing the same active ingre-
dient or an amendment to the proposed labeling will be deemed a new active in-
gredient application, subject to the registration service fee and decision review 
time for a new active ingredient. In the case of a first food use application, until 
that first food use is approved, any subsequent application for an additional new 
food use or uses will be subject to the registration service fee and decision review 
time for a first food use. Any information that (a) was neither requested nor re-
quired by the Agency, and (b) is submitted by the applicant at the applicant’s ini-
tiative to support the application after completion of the technical deficiency 
screening, and (c) is not itself a covered registration application, must be assessed 
25% of the full registration service fee for the new active ingredient or first food 
use application. 
(3) An application for a new end-use product using a source of active ingre-
dient that (a) is not yet registered but (b) has an application pending with the 
Agency for review, will be considered an application for a new product with an 
unregistered source of active ingredient. 
(4) (a) EPA-initiated amendments shall not be charged registration service fees. 
(b) Registrant-initiated fast-track amendments are to be completed within the 
timelines specified in FIFRA Section 3(c)(3)(B) and are not subject to registra-
tion service fees. (c) Registrant-initiated fast-track amendments handled by the 
Antimicrobials Division are to be completed within the timelines specified in 
FIFRA Section 3(h) and are not subject to registration service fees. (d) Registrant 
initiated amendments submitted by notification under PR Notices, such as PR 
Notice 98-10, continue under PR Notice timelines and are not subject to registra-
tion service fees. (e) Submissions with data and requiring data review are subject 
to registration service fees.
† HR 1029 EAS 
(5) Amendment applications to add the new use(s) to registered product labels 
are covered by the base fee for the new use(s). All items in the covered application 
must be submitted together in one package. Each application for an additional 
new product registration and new inert approval(s) that is submitted in the new 
use application package is subject to the registration service fee for a new product 
or a new inert approval. However, if a new use application only proposes to reg-
ister the new use for a new product and there are no amendments in the applica-
tion, then review of one new product application is covered by the new use fee. All 
such associated applications that are submitted together will be subject to the new 
use decision review time. Any application for a new product or an amendment to 
the proposed labeling (a) submitted subsequent to submission of the new use appli-
cation and (b) prior to conclusion of its decision review time and (c) containing 
the same new uses, will be deemed a separate new-use application, subject to a 
separate registration service fee and new decision review time for a new use. If the 
new-use application includes non-food (indoor and/or outdoor), and food (outdoor 
and/or indoor) uses, the appropriate fee is due for each type of new use and the 
longest decision review time applies to all of the new uses requested in the applica-
tion. Any information that (a) was neither requested nor required by the Agency, 
and (b) is submitted by the applicant at the applicant’s initiative to support the 
application after completion of the technical deficiency screen, and (c) is not itself 
a covered registration application, must be assessed 25% of the full registration 
service fee for the new use application. 
(6) Where the action involves approval of a new or amended label, on or before 
the end date of the decision review time, the Agency shall provide to the applicant 
a draft accepted label, including any changes made by the Agency that differ from 
the applicant-submitted label and relevant supporting data reviewed by the Agen-
cy. The applicant will notify the Agency that the applicant either (a) agrees to all 
of the terms associated with the draft accepted label as amended by the Agency 
and requests that it be issued as the accepted final Agency-stamped label; or (b) 
does not agree to one or more of the terms of the draft accepted label as amended 
by the Agency and requests additional time to resolve the difference(s); or (c) with-
draws the application without prejudice for subsequent resubmission, but forfeits 
the associated registration service fee. For cases described in (b), the applicant 
shall have up to 30 calendar days to reach agreement with the Agency on the final 
terms of the Agency-accepted label. If the applicant agrees to all of the terms of the 
accepted label as in (a), including upon resolution of differences in (b), the Agency 
shall provide an accepted final Agency-stamped label to the registrant within 2 
business days following the registrant’s written or electronic confirmation of agree-
ment to the Agency.

(1) A decision review time that would otherwise end on a Saturday, Sunday, or

(2) New PIP = a PIP with an active ingredient that has not been registered. 
(3) Registered PIP = a PIP with an active ingredient that is currently reg-
istered. 
(4) Transfer registered PIP through conventional breeding for new food/feed use, 
such as from field corn to sweet corn. 
(5) The scientific data involved in this category are complex. EPA often seeks 
technical advice from the Scientific Advisory Panel on risks that pesticides pose to 
wildlife, farm workers, pesticide applicators, non-target species, as well as insect 
resistance, and novel scientific issues surrounding new technologies. The scientists 
of the SAP neither make nor recommend policy decisions. They provide advice on 
the science used to make these decisions. Their advice is invaluable to the EPA as 
it strives to protect humans and the environment from risks posed by pesticides. 
Due to the time it takes to schedule and prepare for meetings with the SAP, addi-
tional time and costs are needed. 
(6) Registered PIPs stacked through conventional breeding. 
(7) Deployment of a registered PIP with a different IRM plan (e.g., seed blend). 
(8) The negotiated acreage cap will depend upon EPA’s determination of the 
potential environmental exposure, risk(s) to non-target organisms, and the risk of 
targeted pest developing resistance to the pesticidal substance. The uncertainty of 
these risks may reduce the allowable acreage, based upon the quantity and type of 
non-target organism data submitted and the lack of insect resistance management 
data, which is usually not required for seed-increase registrations. Registrants are 
encouraged to consult with EPA prior to submission of a registration application 
in this category. 
(9) Application can be submitted prior to or concurrently with an application 
for commercial registration.

cy. The applicant will notify the Agency that the applicant either (a) agrees to all 
of the terms associated with the draft accepted label as amended by the Agency 
and requests that it be issued as the accepted final Agency-stamped label; or (b) 
does not agree to one or more of the terms of the draft accepted label as amended 
by the Agency and requests additional time to resolve the difference(s); or (c) with-
draws the application without prejudice for subsequent resubmission, but forfeits 
the associated registration service fee. For cases described in (b), the applicant 
shall have up to 30 calendar days to reach agreement with the Agency on the final 
terms of the Agency-accepted label. If the applicant agrees to all of the terms of the 
accepted label as in (a), including upon resolution of differences in (b), the Agency 
shall provide an accepted final Agency-stamped label to the registrant within 2 
business days following the registrant’s written or electronic confirmation of agree-
ment to the Agency. 
(8) If a new safener is submitted in the same package as a new active ingre-
dient, and that new active ingredient is determined to be reduced risk, then the 
safener would get the same reduced timeframe as the new active ingredient.

(1) A decision review time that would otherwise end on a Saturday, Sunday, or 
federal holiday, will be extended to end on the next business day. 
(2) If another covered application is submitted that depends upon an applica-
tion to approve an inert ingredient, each application will be subject to its respec-
tive registration service fee. The decision review time line for both submissions will 
be the longest of the associated applications. If the application covers multiple in-
gredients grouped by EPA into one chemical class, a single registration service fee 
will be assessed for approval of those ingredients. 
(3) If EPA data rules are amended to newly require clearance under section 
408 of the FFDCA for an ingredient of an antimicrobial product where such in-
gredient was not previously subject to such a clearance, then review of the data for 
such clearance of such product is not subject to a registration service fee for the 
tolerance action for two years from the effective date of the rule. 
(4) Any other covered application that is associated with and dependent on the 
HSRB review will be subject to its separate registration service fee. The decision 
review times for the associated actions run concurrently, but will end at the date 
of the latest review time.
† HR 1029 EAS 
(5) Any other covered application that is associated with and dependent on the 
SAP review will be subject to its separate registration service fee. The decision re-
view time for the associated action will be extended by the decision review time for 
the SAP review. 
(6) An application for a new end-use product using a source of active ingre-
dient that (a) is not yet registered but (b) has an application pending with the 
Agency for review, will be considered an application for a new product with an 
unregistered source of active ingredient. 
(7) Where the action involves approval of a new or amended label, on or before 
the end date of the decision review time, the Agency shall provide to the applicant 
a draft accepted label, including any changes made by the Agency that differ from 
the applicant-submitted label and relevant supporting data reviewed by the Agen-
cy. The applicant will notify the Agency that the applicant either (a) agrees to all 
of the terms associated with the draft accepted label as amended by the Agency 
and requests that it be issued as the accepted final Agency-stamped label; or (b) 
does not agree to one or more of the terms of the draft accepted label as amended 
by the Agency and requests additional time to resolve the difference(s); or (c) with-
draws the application without prejudice for subsequent resubmission, but forfeits 
the associated registration service fee. For cases described in (b), the applicant 
shall have up to 30 calendar days to reach agreement with the Agency on the final 
terms of the Agency-accepted label. If the applicant agrees to all of the terms of the 
accepted label as in (a), including upon resolution of differences in (b), the Agency 
shall provide an accepted final Agency-stamped label to the registrant within 2 
business days following the registrant’s written or electronic confirmation of agree-
ment to the Agency. 
(8) Due to low fee and short time frame this category is not eligible for small 
business waivers. Gold seal applies to one registered product. 
(9) This category includes amendments the sole purpose of which is to add DfE 
(or equivalent terms that do not use ‘‘safe’’ or derivatives of ‘‘safe’’) logos to a 
label. DfE is a voluntary program. A label bearing a DfE logo is not considered 
an Agency endorsement because the ingredients in the qualifying product must 
meet objective, scientific criteria established and widely publicized by EPA.’’. 
SEC. 7. EXTENSION. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act or 
amendment made by this Act, any reference in this Act or 
an amendment made by this Act to ‘‘2020’’ shall be deemed 
to be a reference to ‘‘2023’’. 
SEC. 8. AGRICULTURAL WORKER PROTECTION STANDARD; 
CERTIFICATION OF PESTICIDE APPLICATORS. 
(a) IN GENERAL.—Except as provided in subsection 
(b), during the period beginning on the date of enactment 
of this Act and ending not earlier than October 1, 2021,

(1) shall carry out—
† HR 1029 EAS 
(A) the final rule of the Administrator enti-
tled ‘‘Pesticides; Agricultural Worker Protection 
Standard Revisions’’ (80 Fed. Reg. 67496 (No-
vember 2, 2015)); and 
(B) the final rule of the Administrator enti-
tled ‘‘Pesticides; Certification of Pesticide Appli-
cators’’ (82 Fed. Reg. 952 (January 4, 2017)); 
and 
(2) shall not revise or develop revisions to the 
rules described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of 
paragraph (1). 
(b) EXCEPTIONS.—Prior to October 1, 2021, the Ad-
ministrator may propose, and after a notice and public 
comment period of not less than 90 days, promulgate revi-
sions to the final rule described in subsection (a)(1)(A) ad-
dressing application exclusion zones under part 170 of title 
40, Code of Federal Regulations, consistent with the Federal 
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (7 U.S.C. 136 
et seq.). 
(c) GAO REPORT.—The Comptroller General of the 
United States shall— 
(1) conduct a study on the use of the designated 
representative, including the effect of that use on the 
availability of pesticide application and hazard infor-
mation and worker health and safety; and
† HR 1029 EAS 
(2) not later than October 1, 2021, make pub-
lically available a report describing the study under 
paragraph (1), including any recommendations to 
prevent the misuse of pesticide application and haz-
ard information, if that misuse is identified.
