The Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency is
authorized and directed to undertake comprehensive continuing
studies on the effects of insecticides, herbicides, fungicides and
pesticides, upon the fish and wildlife resources of the United
States, for the purpose of determining the amounts, percentages,
and formulations of such chemicals that are lethal to or injurious
to fish and wildlife and the amounts, percentages, mixtures, or
formulations that can be used safely, and thereby prevent losses of
fish and wildlife from such spraying, dusting, or other treatment.
