The EPA PGA Message Set pilot test for Notice of Arrival of Pesticides and Devices, announced in Federal Register Notice (FRN) (80 FR 6098, published February 4, 2015) and participant limitations further defined in a subsequent FRN (81 FR 13399, published March 14, 2016), is now open to all importers.

As explained in the subsequent March Notice, consistent with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), this pilot initially was limited to 9 importers. The data collection has now been approved under OMB Control number 2070-0020. We encourage all importers of pesticides and devices to participate in the pilot to gain greater experience with filing under ACE/ITDS.

To participate in the Notice of Arrival of Pesticides and Devices pilot or for questions on any of the EPA pilots, please contact Roy Chaudet at chaudet.roy@epa.gov.
