Summary: The Center for Biological Diversity supports the EPA's Draft Fungicide Strategy as a programmatic approach to protect endangered and threatened species, particularly through the use of Pesticide Use Limitation Areas (PULAs). However, they argue that the current mitigation menu and point system are too weak and complex, and they urge the EPA to adopt more stringent, objective, and geographically tailored conservation measures.
