The Government will provide the contract laboratory the Spinosad technical reference standard and an appropriate analytical chemistry method to be used in the applicable study guidelines listed above (830.6317 6313). As part of this contract, the contract laboratory will produce a GLP-compliant Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for the Spinosad technical reference standard and validate the provided analytical chemistry method in accordance with the GLPs prior to completing the studies listed above. The resulting final reports for the product chemistry registration studies listed above must also meet the FIFRA GLP requirements and EPA's data submission format requirements (EPA PRN 2011-3: Standard Format for Data Submitted Under FIFRA and Certain Provisions of FFDCA [3]) to support a future pesticide registration application to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
