meaningful involvement of any group,
including minority and/or low income
populations, in the development,
implementation, and enforcement of
environmental laws, regulations, and
policies. To help address potential
environmental justice issues, the
Agency seeks information on any groups
or segments of the population who, as
a result of their location, cultural
practices, or other factors, may have
atypical or disproportionately high and
adverse human health impacts or
environmental effects from exposure to
the pesticides discussed in this
document, compared to the general
population.
II. Authority
EPA is initiating its reviews of the
pesticides identified in this document
pursuant to section 3(g) of the Federal
Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide
Act (FIFRA) and the Procedural
Regulations for Registration Review at
40 CFR part 155, subpart C. Section 3(g)
of FIFRA provides, among other things,
that the registrations of pesticides are to
be reviewed every 15 years. Under
FIFRA, a pesticide product may be
registered or remain registered only if it
meets the statutory standard for
registration given in FIFRA section
3(c)(5). When used in accordance with
widespread and commonly recognized
practice, the pesticide product must
perform its intended function without
unreasonable adverse effects on the
environment; that is, without any
unreasonable risk to man or the
environment, or a human dietary risk
from residues that result from the use of
a pesticide in or on food.
III. Registration Reviews
A. What action is the agency taking?
As directed by FIFRA section 3(g),
EPA is reviewing the pesticide
registrations identified in the table in
this unit to assure that they continue to
satisfy the FIFRA standard for
registration—that is, they can still be
used without unreasonable adverse
effects on human health or the
environment. A pesticide’s registration
review begins when the Agency
establishes a docket for the pesticide’s
registration review case and opens the
docket for public review and comment.
At present, EPA is opening registration
review dockets for the cases identified
in the following table.

B. Docket Content
1. Review Dockets
The registration review dockets contain information that the Agency
may consider in the course of the registration review. The Agency may
include information from its files including, but not limited to, the
following information:
An overview of the registration review case status.
A list of current product registrations and registrants.
Federal Register notices regarding any pending
registration actions.
Federal Register notices regarding current or pending
tolerances.
Risk assessments.
Bibliographies concerning current registrations.
Summaries of incident data.
Any other pertinent data or information.
Each docket contains a document summarizing what the Agency
currently knows about the pesticide case and a preliminary work plan
for anticipated data and assessment needs. Additional documents provide
more detailed information. During this public comment period, the
Agency is asking that interested persons identify any additional
information they believe the Agency should consider during the
registration reviews of these pesticides. The Agency identifies in each
docket the areas where public comment is specifically requested, though
comment in any area is welcome.
2. Other Related Information
More information on these cases, including the active ingredients
for each case, may be located in the registration review schedule on
the Agency's Web site at https://www.epa.gov/oppsrrd1/registration_review/schedule.htm. Information on the Agency's registration review
program and its implementing regulation may be seen at https://www.epa.gov/oppsrrd1/registration_review.
3. Information Submission Requirements
Anyone may submit data or information in response to this document.
To be considered during a pesticide's registration review, the
submitted data or information must meet the following requirements:
To ensure that EPA will consider data or information
submitted, interested persons must submit the data or information
during the comment period. The Agency may, at its discretion, consider
data or information submitted at a later date.
The data or information submitted must be presented in a
legible and useable form. For example, an English translation must
accompany any material that is not in English and a written transcript
must accompany any information submitted as an audiographic or
videographic record. Written material may be submitted in paper or
electronic form.
Submitters must clearly identify the source of any
submitted data or information.
Submitters may request the Agency to reconsider data or
information that the Agency rejected in a previous review. However,
submitters must explain why they believe the Agency should reconsider
the data or information in the pesticide's registration review.
As provided in 40 CFR 155.58, the registration review docket for
each pesticide case will remain publicly accessible through the
duration of the registration review process; that is, until all actions
required in the final decision on the registration review case have
been completed.
