Schedule of covered applications and other actions and their registration service fees
Subject to paragraph (6), the schedule of registration applications and other covered actions and their corresponding registration service fees shall be as follows: TABLE 1. — REGISTRATION DIVISION — NEW ACTIVE INGREDIENTSEPA No.New CR No.ActionDecision Review Time (Months)(1) Registration Service Fee ($)(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 application 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
decision 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 additional 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 ingredient or an amendment to the
proposed labeling will be deemed a new active ingredient 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 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 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) 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
Agency. 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) withdraws 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 agreement to the
Agency. R0101New Active Ingredient, Food use. (2)(3)24 753,082 R0202New Active Ingredient, Food use; reduced risk. (2)(3)18627,568R0403New Active Ingredient, Food use; Experimental Use Permit application; establish temporary

active ingredient or first food use application and retain the same
decision time review period as the new active ingredient or first food use
application. The application must be received by the agency in one

active ingredient is approved, any subsequent application for another new
product containing the same active ingredient or an amendment to the

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 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 screening, and (c) is not itself a
covered registration application, must be assessed 25% of the full

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 agreement to the
Agency.(4) 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 register the new use for a new product and there are no
amendments in the application, 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 application 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 application. 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.R13013First food use; indoor; food/food handling. (2) (3)21191,444R14014Additional food use; Indoor; food/food handling.

for an additional new product registration and new inert approval(s) that
is submitted in the amendment application package is subject to the
registration service fee for a new product or a new inert approval.
However, if an amendment application only proposes to register the
amendment for a new product and there are no amendments in the

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 agreement to the
Agency.(4) For the purposes of classifying proposed registration actions into PRIA categories, “pest(s)
requiring efficacy” are: public health pests listed in PR Notice 2002-1,
livestock pests (e.g. Horn flies, Stable flies), wood-destroying pests
(e.g. termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles) and certain invasive
species (e.g. Asian Longhorned beetle, Emerald Ashborer). This list may be
updated/refined as invasive pest needs arise. To determine the number of
pests for the PRIA categories, pests have been placed into groups
(general; e.g., cockroaches) and pest specific (specifically a test
species). If seeking a label claim against a pest group (general), use the
group listing below and each group will count as 1. The general pests
groups are: mites, dust mites, chiggers, ticks, hard ticks, soft ticks,
cattle ticks, scorpions, spiders, centipedes, lice, fleas, cockroaches,
keds, bot flies, screwworms, filth flies, blow flies, house flies, flesh
flies, mosquitoes, biting flies, horse flies, stable flies, deer flies,
sand flies, biting midges, black flies, true bugs, bed bugs, stinging
bees, wasps, yellow jackets, hornets, ants (excluding carpenter ants),
fire and harvester ants, wood destroying beetles, carpenter ants,
termites, subterranean termites, dry wood termites, arboreal termites,
damp wood termites and invasive species. If seeking a claim against a
specific pest without a general claim then each specific pest will count
as 1.R30045New product; or similar combination product (already registered) to an identical or substantially

requiring efficacy” are: public health pests listed in PR Notice 2002-1,
livestock pests (e.g. Horn flies, Stable flies), wood-destroying pests
(e.g. termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles) and certain invasive
species (e.g. Asian Longhorned beetle, Emerald Ashborer). This list may be
updated/refined as invasive pest needs arise. To determine the number of
pests for the PRIA categories, pests have been placed into groups
(general; e.g., cockroaches) and pest specific (specifically a test
species). If seeking a label claim against a pest group (general), use the
group listing below and each group will count as 1. The general pests
groups are: mites, dust mites, chiggers, ticks, hard ticks, soft ticks,
cattle ticks, scorpions, spiders, centipedes, lice, fleas, cockroaches,
keds, bot flies, screwworms, filth flies, blow flies, house flies, flesh
flies, mosquitoes, biting flies, horse flies, stable flies, deer flies,
sand flies, biting midges, black flies, true bugs, bed bugs, stinging
bees, wasps, yellow jackets, hornets, ants (excluding carpenter ants),
fire and harvester ants, wood destroying beetles, carpenter ants,
termites, subterranean termites, dry wood termites, arboreal termites,
damp wood termites and invasive species. If seeking a claim against a
specific pest without a general claim then each specific pest will count
as 1.R34060Amendment requiring data review within RD (e.g., changes to precautionary label statements);

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 register the new use for a new product and there are no
amendments in the application, 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 application 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 application. 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

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 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 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) 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 register the new use for a new product and there are no
amendments in the application, 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 application 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 application. 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. (4) 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
Agency. 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) withdraws 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 agreement to the

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, additional
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.(10) For example, IRM plan modifications that are applicant-initiated.(11) EPA-initiated amendments shall not be charged fees.(12) Where the action involves approval of a new or amended label, on or before the end date of the
