Abstract |
The Standard Evaluation Procedure (SEP) for Field Testing for Pollinators is a guidance document primarily intended for Agency reviewers and the regulated industry who assess pesticide hazards to bees. The SEP is also intended to provide information to the general public indicating how the Agency uses toxicity data to determine if field testing for pollinators is required. As such, it is designed to supplement Subdivision L of the Pesticide Assessment Guidelines: Hazard Evaluation - Nontarget Insects. The SEP provides an Introduction, Discussion of Test Standards, Reporting Requirements, and a section on Reviewer Evaluation. |
