II. Did EPA Approve the Application?
The Agency approved the application
after considering all required data on
risks associated with the proposed use
of coyote urine, and information on
social, economic, and environmental
benefits to be derived from use.
Specifically, the Agency has considered
the nature of the chemical 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 use of coyote urine when used in
accordance with widespread and
commonly recognized practice, will not
generally cause unreasonable adverse
effects to the environment.

III. Approved Application
The company submitted an
application to EPA to register the
pesticide product ShakeAway Deer
Repellent Granules (EPA File Symbol
80917-1) containing the same chemical
at 5 percent. However, since the notice
of receipt of the application to register
the product as required by section
3(c)(4) of FIFRA, as amended, did not
publish in the Federal Register,
interested parties may submit comments
on or before October 6, 2006 for this
product only.
Listed below is the application
approved on March 28, 2006 for
ShakeAway Deer Repellent Granules.
EPA issued a notice, published in the
Federal Register of December 15, 2004
(69 FR 75063) (FRL–7687–7), which
announced that Shake-Away, 2330
Whitney Avenue, Hamden, CT, 06518,
had submitted an application to register
the pesticide product, Deer Repellent
Granules, an animal repellent (File

Notice of Final Determination.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that
pursuant to Section 1424(e) of the Safe
Drinking Water Act (42 U.S.C. 300h–
3(e), Pub. L. 93–523), and in response to
a petition from a group of Clark County
residents (two private groups and 8
individuals), the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) Region 10
Administrator has determined that the
Troutdale aquifer system, in Clark
County, Washington, is a sole or
principal source of drinking water, and
that if contaminated, would create a
significant hazard to public health. As a
result of this action, all Federal
financially-assisted projects proposed
over the designated aquifer system will
be subject to EPA review to ensure that
they do not create a significant hazard
to public health.
DATES: This determination shall be
promulgated for purposes of judicial
review at 1 p.m. eastern time on
September 20, 2006.
ADDRESSES: The information upon
which this determination is based is
available to the public and may be
inspected during normal business hours
at the EPA Region 10 Library, 1200
Sixth Avenue, Seattle, Washington
98101, or on the EPA Web site at: https://

If the Administrator determines, on his
own initiative or upon petition that an area
has an aquifer which is the sole or principal
drinking water source for the area and which,
if contaminated, would create a significant
hazard to public health, he shall publish
notice of that determination in the Federal
Register. After the publication of any such
notice, no commitment for Federal financial
assistance (through a grant, contract, loan
guarantee, or otherwise) may be entered into
for any project which the Administrator
determines may contaminate such aquifer
through a recharge zone so as to create a
significant hazard to public health, but a
commitment for Federal assistance may, if
authorized under another provision of law,
be entered into to plan or design the project
to assure that it will not so contaminate the
aquifer.
The EPA Region 10 Drinking Water
Section received a draft sole source
aquifer (SSA) petition in early
November 2005 from a group of Clark
County residents, who represent both
individuals and private public interest
groups. The petitioners were:
The Columbia Riverkeeper,
The Rosemere Neighborhood
Association,
Dvija Michael Bertish,
Dennis Dykes,
Thom McConathy,
Nathan Reynolds,
Karen Kingston,
Coleen Broad,
Richard Dyrland,
Dean Swanson.
A final petition was presented to EPA
on November 29, 2005. On December
28, 2005, EPA sent a letter to the
petitioners acknowledging that the
agency considered the petition
complete, and that the technical review
process would begin.
In January 2006 EPA met with the
petitioners to discuss expanding the
aquifer system boundary to include
more of the geologic formations. There
was agreement to extend the boundary,
and the petitioners agreed to provide
updated values for population and
drinking water use data. On January 17,
2006 the petitioners provided the
adjusted water use and population data
to EPA.
In February of 2006, the Troutdale
aquifer system review was completed
and the area appeared to meet all
criteria for SSA designation. The legal
and technical basis for the proposal was
outlined in an EPA publication titled:
‘‘Draft Support Document for the Sole
Source Aquifer Designation of the
Troutdale Aquifer System’’. After a

II. Did EPA Approve the Application?
The Agency approved the application after considering all required
data on risks associated with the proposed use of coyote urine, and
information on social, economic, and environmental benefits to be
derived from use. Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of
the chemical 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 use of coyote urine when used in accordance with widespread
and commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable
adverse effects to the environment.
III. Approved Application
The company submitted an application to EPA to register the
pesticide product ShakeAway Deer Repellent Granules (EPA File Symbol
80917-1) containing the same chemical at 5 percent. However, since the
notice of receipt of the application to register the product as
required by section 3(c)(4) of FIFRA, as amended, did not publish in
the Federal Register, interested parties may submit comments on or
before October 6, 2006 for this product only.
Listed below is the application approved on March 28, 2006 for
ShakeAway Deer Repellent Granules.
EPA issued a notice, published in the Federal Register of December
15, 2004 (69 FR 75063) (FRL-7687-7), which announced that Shake-Away,
