Allows the Administrator to elect to proceed with a special review proceeding or a public interim administrative review proceeding, if published before January 1, 1990, under the law in effect before enactment of this Act. Requires the Administrator to reassess each tolerance and exemption from the requirement for a tolerance at certain times in connection with reregistration of pesticides. Establishes the Science Review Board to assist the Scientific Advisory Panel in reviews conducted by the Panel. Revises procedures applicable after denial of an application for registration. Allows the Administrator to deny an application for registration because it does not comply with the requirements of a rule issued under provisions of this Act. Repeals provisions regulating the authority of the Administrator to initiate a public interim administrative review process. Declares a decision made after a hearing in certain circumstances during phase three of reregistration to be final. Amends provisions regulating: (1) review by district courts of suspension of registrations; and (2) public hearings. Title II: Data Collection - Directs the Secretary of Agriculture to collect by surveys on a biennial basis pesticide use data of State-level significance for all the major crops and crops of dietary significance. Authorizes appropriations. Amends the National Agricultural Research, Extension, and Teaching Policy Act of 1977 to add to the responsibilities of the Secretary of Agriculture that of establishing, with the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a committee to oversee coordination between the Department of Agriculture's conservation, commodity, research, and education programs and the EPA's pesticide regulatory activities. Requires the interagency coordinating committee to: (1) develop and oversee integrated pest management research and education initiatives targeted toward principal pests of crops, with an emphasis on crops which constitute significant human dietary exposure to pesticide residues and for which few pesticide alternatives exist; and (2) advise the Administrator regarding ways to take into account, in registration, reregistration, and cancellation actions, the implications of the emergency or severity of genetic resistance in pests to pesticides, or the viability and profitability of integrated pest management systems. Authorizes appropriations. Adds to the list of high priority research, for the purpose of grants by the Secretary of Agriculture under existing provisions, research to develop and refine integrated pest management techniques and other nonchemical or reduced chemical control technologies targeted toward crop pests, particularly those pests and crops which require applications of pesticides that may pose greater than a negligible risk to man or the environment. Title III: Authorizations - Increases the amount authorized to be appropriated to carry out the FIFRA for FY 1990 and 1991, earmarking the increased authorization for the implementation of regulations relating to certain ingredients in pesticide products.
