Label Review Training: Module 4: Applying the Principles of Pesticide Label Review, Page 5

Section 1: How should I use the Label Review Manual to review for consistency?

Key Points

  • The Label Review Manual provides guidance on how EPA interprets the applicable law. It is not intended to establish new guidance.
  • Label reviewers should become most familiar with Chapters 3, 7, 8, 10, 11, and 12 of the Label Review Manual. 

Progress Check

  • Is the Label Review Manual the only document reviewers should consult when conducting their reviews?
  • Which manual chapter provides a basic overview of the parts of the label and mandatory versus advisory language?

Answer

No, label reviewers should consult a variety of other resources, including RED documents and PR notices.

Answer

Chapter 3: General Labeling Requirements.
