that other products can be harmful to
the environment, but methyl soyate
(BIO-LARV) has been shown to have
little or no side effects on other aquatic
species or mammal life in or near
ponds. The applicant also cites statistics
detailing the number of cases of West
Nile virus infections during the period
2003–2008, and reports 14 deaths over
the period.
Methyl soyate (BIO-LARV) will be
applied at the rate of 3–5 gallons per
acre depending on the density of the
vegetation. Per the label the mixture
will consist of 3–5 gallons of BIO-LARV
to 100 gallons of water.
This notice does not constitute a
decision by EPA on the application
itself. The regulations governing section
18 of FIFRA require publication of a
notice of receipt of an application for a
specific exemption proposing use of a
new chemical (i.e., an active ingredient)
which has not been registered by EPA.
This notice provides an opportunity for
public comment on the application.
The Agency will review and consider
all comments received during the
comment period in determining
whether to issue the specific exemption
requested by the Wyoming Departmrnt
of Agriculture.
