Soil fumigations are complex processes that require specialized equipment and practices to properly apply volatile and toxic pesticides. EPA's risk mitigation allows for site-specific decisions to address the conditions where the fumigant is applied. To address this complexity and flexibility, EPA is requiring that fumigant users prepare a written, site-specific fumigant management plan (FMP) before fumigations begin. Written plans and procedures for safe and effective applications will help prevent accidents and misuse and will capture emergency response plans and steps to take in case an accident occurs.

Electronic Form for Fumigant Management Plans 
- Several registrant companies sponsored the development of an electronic form by Agrian, Inc. to assist soil fumigant applicators in preparing Fumigant Management Plans required by EPA. Agency staff provided input to the process to make sure the minimum label requirements would be addressed. Use of the Agrian electronic FMP tool is voluntary and FMPs developed using this tool include the elements required by labels . FMPs prepared using EPA's templates and in other ways will also be acceptable to the Agency.
