The latest update of the OPP’s workplan for new active ingredient approvals shows virtually no changes to the previously issued schedule for fiscal 2009. The OPP still plans to make seven new ai registration decisions, but it has brought forward its planned decision forHelena’s herbicide, cumyluron, from the second quarter to the first quarter.
Registration decisions for two of the nine ais scheduled for fiscal 2008 were outstanding in mid-August. Decisions forArkema’s fungicide, dimethyl disulfide, and Bayer’s herbicide, thiencarbazone-methyl, are scheduled for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008, which ends on September 30th.
