Why We Did This Report
The Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act, requires the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Office of Inspector General to perform an annual audit of the financial statements for the Pesticides Reregistration and Expedited Processing Fund.
Summary of Findings
We rendered an unmodified opinion on the EPA’s fiscal years 2023 and 2022 (Restated) Pesticides Reregistration and Expedited Processing Fund financial statements-also known as the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act Fund, financial statements, meaning that the statements were fairly presented and free of material misstatement. We noted the following material weakness: the EPA materially misstated the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act Fund income and expenses from other appropriations.
