of agriculture, and 1994 Institutions to develop training for pesticide
registrants on regulatory procedures according to the Pesticide Registration
Improvement Act (PRIA). The goal is to improve the efficiency, clarity, and
consistency of EPA's pesticide registration and registration review processes.
In addition to developing training, the awardee will also assist EPA in determining
agricultural focus areas for crop tours. The overall objectives are to improve
skills, align competencies with EPA's mission, address best practices, improve
processes, promote consistency, and educate stakeholders on regulatory
procedures.
