Enviromental Protection Agency (EPA) Responsible for Pesticide Regulation
EPA carries out the regulations established under federal laws.


Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act FIFRA regulates the production, transportation, sales, use, and disposal of all
(FIFRA) pesticides in the United States.
FIFRA requires that all people who purchase, apply, or supervise the use of a
restricted-use pesticide must have the appropriate state credentials.


Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) To ensure the safety of the food supply, the EPA set allowable residue levels
called tolerances, under regulations authorized by the FFDCA.
A safe tolerance is defined as a level at which there is a "reasonable certainty of
no harm" from the exposure.

grains, other foods, and animal feed.


Tolerance The amount of Residue levels allowed in products that will cause no harm.


Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) FQPA amended both FIFRA and FFSCA and set a tougher standard for pesticide
use on foods.
FQPA established a single, health-based standard to be used when assessing
the risk of pesticide residues in food or feed.
FQPA also requires EPA to give special consideration to the exposure of infants
and children to pesticide residues in food.


Worker Protection Standard (WPS) WPS is a set of regulations from the EPA aimed at reducing the risk of pesticide
poisonings, injuries, and exposure to agricultural workers and handlers.


Endangered Species Act (ESA) ESA is a program for the conservation of threatened ad endangered plants and
animals and the habitats in which they are found.
Pesticide use may directly or indirectly , through drift and runoff, affect
