Progress 04/01/01 to 03/31/04
Outputs The Northeast Regional IR-4 Program contributes to the national effort of the IR-4 Project to develop residue data in support of petitions for the approval of new registrations and approved uses for pest control agents on minor crops and ornamentals in the United States. During the period covered by this report the Northeast Regional IR-4 Program completed 167 magnitude of residue field trials, 317 ornamentals trials, and 36 performance/efficacy trials. The Northeast Regional IR-4 Laboratory completed 35 analytical studies, encompassing 216 residue trials. Quality assurance audits of facilities were performed for 6 sites and in-life audits were performed for 32 field studies and 32 analytical studies. Quality assurance audits were also completed for 37 Analytical summary reports and the associated raw data, 274 Field Data Books, and 40 final petitions.
Impacts The results from the Northeast Region IR-4 Laboratory, together with those generated by other partners in the IR-4 program, resulted in the approval by the US EPA of over 1000 new uses for pest control agents on minor crops during the period covered by this report.

Progress 01/01/01 to 12/31/01
Outputs The Northeast Region IR-4 Laboratory submitted data for one hundred sixty-nine food-use projects. Seventy-eight Field Data Books for 2000 and three for 1999 (two years trial) were reviewed and sent to the designated QA reviewer or IR-4 Headquarters. Eighty-eight residue trials were completed at the NE Regional Laboratory. Seventy-nine field trials were started in the NE Region during the 2001 growing season. There were ninety-six residue projects originally scheduled for the NE Laboratory. After canceling, redistribution and addition of projects, the NER Lab received one hundred and two projects. One hundred thirty-eight reports were submitted for ornamentals work conducted in 2000. One hundred thirty-four ornamental trials were funded in 2001. In addition thirty performance (efficacy and phytotoxicity) trials were performed by twelve researchers. GLP facility audits were conducted at three field sites. In-life audits were done for twenty-four lab projects and eight
field projects. QA Audits were completed on ninety-four Field Data Notebooks, Raw Data for fifteen laboratory studies and fifteen Analytical Summary Reports.
Impacts The results from the Northeast Region IR-4 Laboratory, together with those generated by other partners in the IR-4 program, resulted in the approval by the US EPA of over 500 new uses for pest control agents on minor crops during 2001.
