Explain the Pollinator Risk Assessment Framework as it functions in this case.

(b) What were the results in Tier 1 and how were they reached?

(c) What different analysis takes place at the Tier 2 level?

(d) What problems did the EPA detect here? How did the agency justify its decision to "unconditionally" register sulfoxaflor? Consider the "Advisory Pollinator Statement" that the EPA would require on sulfoxaflor when used on continuously-blooming crops:

Notifying known beekeepers within 1 mile of the treatment area 48 hours before the product is applied will allow them to take additional steps to protect their bees. Also, limiting application to times when managed bees and native pollinators are least active, e.g., before 7 am or after 7 pm local time or when the temperature is below 55E F at the site of application, will minimize the risk to bees.

-Do you think this labeling would be effective? Why/why not?
