Abstract

The framework describes the analyses conducted to estimate exposure and assess the potential impacts of a pesticide to species groups with similar characteristics, and the extent of mitigations that would apply for a particular herbicide to protect listed species groups. The HS proposes a mitigation menu to reduce exposure to listed species from spray drift, runoff, and erosion that would apply to conventional agricultural herbicides. Finally, the HS provides information on the identifying the geographic extent of mitigation and describes the implementation plan.
