Pesticide Registration Improvement Act

The Pesticide Registration Improvement Act (PRIA) is U.S. legislation that streamlines the process for registering new pesticides and amends existing ones. It aims to ensure timely review and approval by funding the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to process registration applications more efficiently. PRIA sets specific timeframes for EPA to decide whether a pesticide can be sold and used, while maintaining safety standards to protect human health and the environment. Overall, it balances the needs of agricultural innovation and health safety through a structured, predictable registration process.
