Compliance Monitoring

EPA conducts inspections as part of its GLP program:

• to monitor compliance with the regulations
• to assure that studies submitted to the Agency in support of a pesticide registration or under a testing consent agreement for an industrial chemical were done with integrity, are of good quality and valid

GLP inspectors:

• conduct inspections and investigations to detect violations and collect evidence necessary to successfully prosecute FIFRA and TSCA violators
• collect physical samples and documentary evidence

EPA provides a list of the testing facilities (PDF) (5 pp, 310K, About PDF) that have been inspected since October 1, 2005.  The list provides the name and address of the testing facility, the date of inspection and the status of the inspection.  It is updated biannually.
