BACKGROUND		

The OPP Incident Data System (IDS) was consulted for poisoning incident
data on the active ingredient flutolanil.  The purpose of the database
search is to identify potential patterns on the extent and severity of
the health effects attributed to flutolanil exposure.  The IDS includes
reports of incidents from various sources, including mandatory Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) Section 6 (a) (2)
reports from registrants, other federal and state health and
environmental agencies and individual consumers.  The following
databases were not searched for poisoning incident data:  the American
Association of Poison Control Centers Toxic Exposure Surveillance System
(TESS), the California Pesticide Illness Surveillance Program, and the
National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health’s Sentinel Event
Notification System for Occupational Risks (NIOSH SENSOR).  The EPA is
supplying the following incident report to fulfill our requirement to
docket summaries of incident data that were reported to the Agency. 
This report represents incidents occurring in the United States from
2000 to the present for the single chemical only.
