Pesticide News Story: New e-mail box for reporting data errors
For Release: September 9, 2009
The Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) has established a central location for users to report issues with pesticide program data contained in the Office of Pesticide Programs data system, known as OPPIN or the Pesticide Product Label System (PPLS). Data from OPPIN is available to the public through the Pesticide Product Information System or through the National Pesticide Information Retrieval System operated by Purdue University. These data sources are available on the Registration Resources Web page at https://www.epa.gov/pesticides/regulating/registering/data_sources.htm. If you encounter missing data, errors, or information that is unclear, please send your report to - OPP-DATA-ISSUES@epa.gov.
This e-mail box is available to any user – OPP staff, regions, states, regulated community, or the public. Staff will check the e-mail box daily and route the problem for research and resolution.
Please be specific. If you’re in a product record, include the registration number. If you’re in an active ingredient record, include the AI name or number. Include screen shots if possible. The more specific your report, the better able we’ll be to research the problem. Also, please identify yourself in your e-mail including name and phone number so we can contact you if we need further information about the issue you have identified.
Our goals are to promptly address data issues and to increase the reliability of pesticide information. You can help us meet these goals by reporting issues you encounter.
Questions or comments related to pesticide issues other than data errors should be directed to http://pesticides.supportportal.com, the Pesticide Programs frequent questions database.
