Abstract: This paper presents a framework for comprehensive multi-disciplinary analysis of the risks, costs and benefits of pesticide uses in support of pesticide regulatory programs. It also discusses how analyses based upon such a framework could contribute to EPA's pesticide regulatory program being implemented under the Federal Pesticide Law, as amended substantively in 1972.
