Ifcontact(residual)pesticidesare tobeusedasa complementtofumigation, theFumigationPERSUAPmustalsocovertheiruse. (The soleexceptionisifsuchthe programhasanotherPERSUAP,e.g. for use of pesticidesinagricultural production,andcontactpesticide iscovered by thisPERSUAP.)

SUMMARYOFFINDINGS

Phosphinefumigation offood commoditiesand complementaryuseofthecontactpesticide[insertproductname]inand around food commodity warehouses for the XXX Program isapproved subject tocompliancewith theSafer Use ActionPlan (SUAP)thatconstitutes sections 6 and 7of thePERSUAPTemplate.TheSUAPimposes themitigation requirements (safer use conditions)established by the ProgrammaticEnvironmentalAssessment“Phosphine Fumigationof StoredAgriculturalCommodity.”

LISTOFCONDITIONS

Condition1:AFumigation ManagementPlan (FMP) mustdescribe the fumigationprocess,includingforfumigantpesticide use,storage,transportanddisposal. The FMPand the actualfumigation processwillsubstantively conformto the planprovidedasToolT-3 (Template of theFMP)ofthe FumigationPEA.ThisFMPmustinclude the followingdetailsonthe fumigationequipment:

1a). Gas monitoringEquipment:Brandname,modeland type ofphosphinegasmonitoringequipment(electrochemical,photo-ionizationortube type)

1b)PersonalProtectionEquipment:includinggascanistermasksorself-containedbreathingapparatus

1c) Gas impermeabletarps:resistant to UV lightandtearingalongbothlengthandwidth,andimpermeable tophosphinegas

Condition2:Any additionalContactPesticide(s)usedin warehouse commodityprotection mustbe limitedto the pesticide(s)authorizedby the PERSUAPandshouldsubstantively conform tocontactpesticidebestpracticesasset out in FumigationPEA AnnexT-6 on “IPMPRACTICES &INSPECTION CHECKLISTFORUSAID-FUNDEDCOMMODITIES AND WAREHOUSES”. ThePERSUAPwillalso include

informationon thesafeusemeasuresandpersonalprotectionequipmentusedintheapplicationofthecontactpesticide(s),aswell as contact pesticidestorage,transportand disposal.

Condition3:GoodHousekeepingand IPM Measures.The implementingpartnermust fullyimplementthe daily/weeklywarehouseandcommoditiesinspectionchecklist(AnnexT- 6on IPMPRACTICES)andtake maintenance/correctiveactionsspecified.Compliance withthischecklistimplementsasetof IPMmeasuresthat are essentialcomplementstofumigation.Theimplementing partner willalsoonlypurchasecommoditythatisat 13%orlessmoisture anddistributestocksasquicklyaspossiblein orderto ensure fullprotectionagainstfungalgrowth, since fungalgrowth andmycotoxinproductioncannotbe completelycontrolledbyphosphinefumigation.

Condition4:FumigationContractLanguageWhenusing a3rd-PartyFumigationServiceProvider, theprovidedmodelRFQandcontract(orsubstantiveequivalent)willbe usedto procure fumigationservicesandproposals/quoteswillbe evaluatedbasedonability to comply withspecifiedsaferuse practices,includingtheprocurementanduse ofgas monitoringequipment,fumigation andcontactpesticidePPE aswellasgasimpermeable tarpsmeetingspecifiedrequirements.

Formally,approvalofthisPERSUAPwillassign anegativedeterminationtophosphinefumigationanduseof thecontactpesticide[insertproductname],subjecttothe conditionthatthe SaferUse ActionPlanprovidedasSections6 and7of thePERSUAPTemplate, is fullyimplemented.

This PERSUAPsatisfiesthe requirementsof 22CFR216.3(b)(USAIDPesticideProcedures)andputs inplace the saferuse requirements(mitigationmeasures)establishedby theUSAID ProgrammaticEnvironmental Assessment“PhosphineFumigationofStoredAgriculturalCommodity” (Henceforththe“FumigationPEA.”)2
