I strongly support collecting ENM data under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA),section 6 (a).
Furthermore, I agree with the EPA that this statute provides the most efficient and effective way to gather data both for pre-market safety assessment and post-market surveillance of ENMs in pesticides.
I believe the EPA should determine which part of the submitted information and test data must be made public to enable peer-reviewed studies of the data to assess public and environmental health effects. The EPA should make a public determination about each nanotech developer claim that such information and data should be classified as Confidential Business information, exempt from public review.
