Subform VII: Scientific Study
1. Study Reference
Title Oxadiazon SC 380 g/L, Effects on the vegetative vigour of ten species of non-target terrestrial plants (Tier 2)
Date 23-MAY-11
2. a) Is an extension needed to translate the document?
No
3. Type of incident identified in the study
Increased health or environmental risk
4. Describe the incident identified in the study (e.g. study demonstrates an increased risk to non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma after exposure to pesticide X)
This is a vegetative vigor study with formulation Oxadiazon SC 380 - it is considered to be similar to Ronstar FLO, a formulation registered in both the US and Canada. The lowest ER25 endpoint for monocots from this study was 0.669 lb a.i./A for oat, which is greater than the current endpoint of 0.37 lb a.i./A for monocots for oat. The dicot endpoint was 0.0146 lb a.i./A (cucumber), which is ~3.4x less than the current endpoint of 0.05 lb a.i./A (lettuce). The study is potentially reportable for the dicot endpoint.

No
