Are the Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) involved in the FESTF project?
The responsibilities for EPAs FIFRA programmatic compliance with the Endangered Species Act lie with EPA and its direct consultation with the FWS or NMFS. Because FESTFs efforts address FIFRA data requirements, FESTF is not involved in the EPA/FWS/NMFS communication process. FESTF does maintain communication with CropLife America in order to be aware of mutual activities that could relate to this process.
