II. Background
A. What Action is the Agency Taking?
Under section 4 of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide
Act (FIFRA), EPA is reevaluating
existing pesticides to ensure that they
meet current scientific and regulatory
standards. EPA has completed a RED for
the allethrins series of pesticides under
section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA. The
allethrins are synthetic pyrethroids used
as insecticides on both indoor
(residential and commercial) and
outdoor (residential, commercial, and
recreational) use sites. EPA has
determined that the database to support
reregistration is substantially complete
and that products containing the
allethrins are eligible for reregistration,
provided the risks are mitigated in the
manner described in the RED. Upon
submission of any required product
specific data under section 4(g)(2)(B) of
FIFRA and any necessary changes to the
registration and labeling (either to
address concerns identified in the RED
or as a result of product specific data),
EPA will make a final reregistration
decision under section 4(g)(2)(C) of
FIFRA for products containing the
allethrins.
Although the allethrins RED was
signed on June 30, 2007, certain
components of the document, which did
not affect the final regulatory decision,
were undergoing final editing at that
time. These components, including the
table of contents and the summary of
labeling changes, have been added to
the allethrins RED document. None of
these additions or changes alter the
conclusions documented in the June 30,
2007 allethrins RED.
EPA is applying the principles of
public participation to all pesticides
undergoing reregistration and tolerance
reassessment. The Agency’s Pesticide
Tolerance Reassessment and
Reregistration; Public Participation
Process, published in the Federal
Register on May 14, 2004, (69 FR 26819)
(FRL–7357–9) explains that in
conducting these programs, EPA is
tailoring its public participation process
to be commensurate with the level of
risk, extent of use, complexity of issues,
and degree of public concern associated
with each pesticide. Due to their uses,

risk, and other factors, the allethrins
were reviewed through the modified 4–
Phase public participation process.
Through this process, EPA worked
extensively with stakeholders and the
public to reach the regulatory decisions
for the allethrins.
The reregistration program is being
conducted under congressionally
mandated time frames, and EPA
recognizes the need both to make timely
decisions and to involve the public. Few
comments were received during the
earlier comment periods for this
reregistration case, and the issues
related to this pesticide were resolved
through consultations with
stakeholders. The Agency therefore is
issuing the allethrins RED without a
comment period.
B. What is the Agency’s Authority for
Taking this Action?
Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA, as amended,
directs that, after submission of all data
concerning a pesticide active ingredient,
‘‘the Administrator shall determine
whether pesticides containing such
active ingredient are eligible for
reregistration,’’ before calling in product
specific data on individual end-use
products and either reregistering
products or taking other ‘‘appropriate
regulatory action.’’
