preservative in toys, paints, mattresses,
clothing, brooms, mulch, floors, shower
curtains, awnings, tents, toilet bowls,
urinals, garbage cans, refuse container
liners, insulation, concrete mixtures,
grouts, and upholstery fabrics. The
FDA-regulated uses include hand soaps,
toothpaste, deodorants, laundry
detergent, fabric softeners, facial tissues,
antiseptics for wound care, and medical
devices. Although these uses are not
regulated under pesticide law, EPA
considered these exposures in the
aggregate risk assessment. EPA used
population-based biological monitoring
data to assess the co-occurrence of uses
to develop an aggregate exposure
assessment.
EPA has determined that the data base
to support reregistration is substantially
complete and that products containing
triclosan are eligible for reregistration
provided the risks are mitigated either
in the manner described in the RED or
by another means that achieves
equivalent risk reduction. 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 triclosan.
Although the triclosan RED was
signed on September 18, 2008, certain
components of the document, which did
not affect the final regulatory decision,
were undergoing final editing at that
time. These components, the
appendices, have been added to the
triclosan RED document.
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 its uses,
risks, and other factors, triclosan was
reviewed through the modified 4–Phase
process. Through this process, EPA
worked extensively with stakeholders
and the public to reach the regulatory
decisions for triclosan.
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. The

Agency is issuing the triclosan RED for
public comment. This comment period
is intended to provide an additional
opportunity for public input and a
mechanism for initiating any necessary
amendments to the RED. All comments
should be submitted using the methods
in ADDRESSES, and must be received by
EPA on or before the closing date. These
comments will become part of the
Agency Docket for triclosan. Comments
received after the close of the comment
period will be marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not
required to consider these late
comments.
The Agency will carefully consider all
comments received by the closing date
and will provide a Response to
Comments Memorandum in the Docket
and regulations.gov. If any comment
significantly affects the document, EPA
also will publish an amendment to the
RED in the Federal Register. In the
absence of substantive comments
requiring changes, the triclosan RED
will be implemented as it is now
presented.
