About the PPDC
Background
The Pesticide Program Dialogue Committee (PPDC), originally established in 1995, was renewed in October 2009 for two more years under the Federal Advisory Committee Act. This Committee provides a forum for a diverse group of stakeholders to provide feedback to the pesticide program on various pesticide regulatory, policy and program implementation issues. Topics of discussion at past meetings have included the following: inerts disclosure, registration review, spray drift, non-animal testing, antimicrobial pesticides, endangered species, reduced risk pesticides, labeling, minor uses, ecological standards, fees for service, experimental use permits, environmental marketing claims, outreach to the public, and several implementation issues emanating from the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996.
Membership to the Committee includes environmental and public interest groups, pesticide manufacturers and trade associations, user and commodity groups, public health and academic institutions, Federal and State agencies, and the general public. The Committee meets two to three times a year and all meetings are open to the public. Background materials along with a summary of each meeting held to date are keptin a public docket at EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs. The Docket is located in Room S-4400, One Potomac Yard, 2777 S. Crystal Drive, Arlington, VA 22202, and is available for viewing Monday through Friday from 8:30 A.M. to 4:00 P.M.
