ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: SUMMARY: On October 20, 2006, the Federal District Court for the Northern District of California issued a Stipulated Injunction, resolving a lawsuit filed by the Center for Biological Diversity against EPA, alleging that EPA failed to comply with section 7(a)(2) of the Endangered Species Act by not ensuring that its registration of 66 named pesticide active ingredients will not jeopardize the California red-legged frog, a federally-listed Threatened species. Key terms of the Stipulated Injunction are summarized as follows: a Court-ordered schedule for EPA to make effects determinations for the 66 named pesticides; interim injunctive measures regarding EPA’s authorization of uses of the 66 pesticides in certain parts of 33 counties in California; and the development and distribution of a bilingual brochure regarding certain aspects of the injunction, pesticides and frogs. Today, EPA announces the availability on its Web site (www.epa.gov/espp) of the bilingual brochure, along with maps and guidance regarding the interim injunctive measures ordered by the Court.
