II. Did EPA Conditionally Approve the
Application?
A conditional registration may be
granted under section 3(c)(7)(C) of
FIFRA for a new active ingredient where
certain data are lacking, on condition
that such data are received by the end
of the conditional registration period
and do not meet or exceed the risk
criteria set forth in 40 CFR 154.7; that
use of the pesticide during the
conditional registration period will not
cause unreasonable adverse effects; and
that use of the pesticide is in the public
interest. The Agency has considered the
available data on the risks associated
with the proposed uses of Paecilomyces
lilacinus strain 251, and of
Chondrostereum purpureum strain
HQ1, and information on social,
economic, and environmental benefits
to be derived from such use.
Specifically, the Agency has considered
the nature and its pattern of use,
application methods and rates, and level
and extent of potential exposure. Based
on these reviews, the Agency was able
to make basic health and safety
determinations which show that uses of
Paecilomyces lilacinus strain 251, and
of Chondrostereum purpureum strain
HQ1 during the period of conditional
registration will not cause any
unreasonable adverse effect on the
environment, and that use of these
pesticides is in the public interest.
Consistent with section 3(c)(7)(C) of
FIFRA, the Agency has determined that
these conditional registrations are in the
public interest. Use of the pesticides are
of significance to the user community,
and appropriate labeling, use directions,
and other measures have been taken to
E:\FR\FM\03JNN1.SGM
03JNN1

result in unreasonable adverse effects to
man and the environment.
