SUMMARY: This document notifies the
public that the Administrator of EPA
has forwarded to the Secretary of
Agriculture a draft final rule as required
by section 25(a) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide
Act (FIFRA). As described in the
Agency’s semi-annual Regulatory
Agenda, the draft final rule will
establish procedures to implement
section 3(g) of FIFRA which provides
for periodic review of pesticide
registrations. The goal of these
regulations, which are required by
FIFRA section 3(g), is to review a
pesticide’s registration every 15 years.
The regulations will address the
following procedural aspects of the
program: establishing pesticide cases for
registration review; establishing

Temporary Exemption from the
Requirement of a Tolerance

Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This regulation establishes a
temporary exemption from the
requirement of a tolerance for residues
of the microbial pesticide Bacillus
mycoides isolate J on sugar beets when
applied/used to control Cercospora Leaf
Spot (Cercospora beticola) in sugar
beets. Montana Microbial Products
submitted a petition to EPA under the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(FFDCA), as amended by the Food
Quality Protection Act of 1996 (FQPA),
requesting the temporary exemption
from tolerance. This regulation
eliminates the need to establish a
maximum permissible level for residues
of Bacillus mycoides isolate J. The
temporary tolerance exemption will
expire on December 31, 2007.
DATES: This regulation is effective June
14, 2006. Objections and requests for
hearings must be received on or before
August 14, 2006, and must be filed in
accordance with the instructions
provided in 40 CFR part 178 (see also
