Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and substitute language for your requested changes. iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information and/ or data that you used. v.

Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period deadline identified. II. Background BCS has requested an EUP, 264–EUP– RUG, to allow for the evaluation of cotton plants that produce the insecticidal protein, Bacillus thuringiensis Cry2Ae, as well as cotton plants that produce two insecticidal proteins, Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ab and Cry2Ae, for protection against lepidopteran cotton pests. For 2008, the proposed acreage includes 94.75 acres of Events GHB119 and/or GHB714, 138.75 acres of Events T303–3 and/or T304–40 cotton plants and Events GHB119 and/or GHB714 cotton plants, and 434.50 acres of non plantincorporated protectant border areas (688 total acres). Cotton derived from transformation events T303–3 or T304– 40 express the plant-incorporated protectant, Bacillus thuringiensis Cry1Ab protein (pTDL004 or pTDL008) and the genetic material necessary for its production were included in the previously granted EUP, 264–EUP–140. Cotton events GHB119 or GHB714 express the plant-incorporated protectant, Bacillus thuringiensis Cry2Ae protein (pTEM12) and the genetic material necessary for its production. These plants also contain a pesticidal inert ingredient as a selectable marker, the phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT) protein that confers tolerance to glufosinateammonium herbicides. The Cry1Ab and Cry2Ae proteins are being tested for their effectiveness in controlling the following lepidopteran cotton pests: Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa zea), tobacco budworm (Heliothis virescens), pink bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella), fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda), and beet armyworm (Spodoptera exigua). Four trial protocols have been proposed: VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:43 Sep 11, 2007 Jkt 211001 • Introgression (nurseries), evaluation (line trials), and seed increases. • Evaluation of the insecticidal efficacy against cotton insect pests, under different degrees of insect pressure, in different growing environments and in different genetic backgrounds. • Evaluation of the agronomic performance in different genetic backgrounds and in different growing regions. • Generation of plant material and data to support future regulatory submissions in the United States and other countries. The states involved in the proposed EUP include: Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas. Proposed shipment/use dates are March 1, 2008 to January 31, 2009. III. What Action is the Agency Taking? Following the review of the BCS application and any comments and data received in response to this notice, EPA will decide whether to issue or deny the EUP request for this EUP program, and if issued, the conditions under which it is to be conducted. Any issuance of an EUP will be announced in the Federal Register. IV. What is the Agency’s Authority for Taking this Action? The Agency’s authority for taking this action is under FIFRA section 5. List of Subjects Environmental protection, Experimental use permits. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Roland E.
