II. Background
The Office of Pesticide Programs is
entrusted with the responsibility to help
ensure the safety of the American food
supply, the education and protection
from unreasonable risk of those who
apply or are exposed to pesticides
occupationally or through use of
products, and general protection of the
environment and special ecosystems
from potential risks posed by pesticides.
The Charter for EPA’s Pesticide
Program Dialogue Committee (PPDC)
was established under the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA), Public
Law 92–463, in September 1995, and
has been renewed every 2 years since
that time. PPDC’s Charter was renewed
November 5, 2005, for another 2–year
period. The purpose of PPDC is to
provide advice and recommendations to
the EPA Administrator on issues
associated with pesticide regulatory
development and reform initiatives,
evolving public policy and program
implementation issues, and science
issues associated with evaluating and
reducing risks from use of pesticides. It
is determined that PPDC is in the public
interest in connection with the
performance of duties imposed on the
Agency by law. The following sectors
are represented on the PPDC: Pesticide
industry and trade associations;
environmental/public interest,
consumer, and animal rights groups;
farm worker organizations; pesticide
user, grower, and commodity groups;
Federal and State/local/Tribal
governments; the general public;
academia; and public health
organizations.
Copies of the PPDC Charter are filed
with appropriate committees of
Congress and the Library of Congress
and are available upon request.
III. How Can I Request to Participate in
this Meeting?

Analysis of Agreement Containing
Consent Order To Aid Public Comment
The Federal Trade Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has accepted, subject to
final approval, an Agreement
Containing Consent Order (‘‘Consent
Agreement’’) from Actavis Group hf.
(‘‘Actavis’’), which is designed to
remedy the anticompetitive effects of
the acquisition of Abrika
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (‘‘Abrika’’) by
Actavis. Under the terms of the
proposed Consent Agreement, the
company would be required to assign
and divest the Abrika rights and assets
necessary to manufacture and market
generic isradipine capsules to Cobalt
Laboratories, Inc. (‘‘Cobalt’’), the U.S.
subsidiary of Arrow Group.
The proposed Consent Agreement has
been placed on the public record for
thirty (30) days for receipt of comments
by interested persons. Comments
received during this period will become
part of the public record. After thirty
(30) days, the Commission will again
review the proposed Consent Agreement
and the comments received, and will
decide whether it should withdraw from
the proposed Consent Agreement,
modify it, or make final the Decision
and Order (‘‘Order’’).
Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of
Merger executed on November 20, 2006,
Actavis proposes to acquire all of the
voting securities of Abrika for $235
million. The Commission’s Complaint
alleges that the proposed acquisition, if
consummated, would violate Section 7
of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15
U.S.C. 18, and Section 5 of the Federal
Trade Commission Act, as amended, 15
U.S.C. 45, by lessening competition in
the U.S. markets for the manufacture
and sale of generic isradipine capsules.
The proposed Consent Agreement will
remedy the alleged violation by
replacing the lost competition that
would result from the acquisition in this
market.
Actavis is a leading developer,
manufacturer, marketer, and distributor
of generic pharmaceutical drugs.
Headquartered in Iceland, Actavis sells
generic pharmaceuticals in over 30
countries and has manufacturing
facilities in Europe, the United States,
