Contacting EPA about the Environmental Effects of Pesticides

EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) works with 10 Regional Offices and other EPA program offices on a wide range of pesticide issues and topics. OPP's Environmental Fate and Effects Division (EFED) is the main division responsible for evaluating and validating environmental data submitted on pesticide properties and effects. Unless otherwise noted, staff are from the Office of Pesticide Programs.
