you claim to be CBI. For CBI
information in a disk or CD–ROM that
you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the
disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then
identify electronically within the disk or
CD–ROM the specific information that
is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that
includes information claimed as CBI, a

must be submitted for inclusion in the
public docket. Information so marked
will not be disclosed except in
accordance with procedures set forth in

vi. Provide specific examples to
illustrate your concerns and suggest
alternatives.

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to
achieve environmental justice, the fair
treatment and 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. What action is the agency taking?
EPA is announcing receipt of a
pesticide petition filed under section
408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a,
proposing the establishment or
modification of regulations in 40 CFR
part 174 or part 180 for residues of
pesticide chemicals in or on various
food commodities. EPA has determined
that the pesticide petition described in
this notice contains data or information
prescribed in FFDCA section 408(d)(2);
however, EPA has not fully evaluated
the sufficiency of the submitted data at
this time or whether the data supports
granting of the pesticide petition.
Additional data may be needed before
EPA can make a final determination on
this pesticide petition.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a
summary of the petition that is the
subject of this notice, prepared by the
petitioner, is included in a docket EPA
has created for this rulemaking. The
docket for this petition is available online at https://www.regulations.gov.
As specified in FFDCA section
408(d)(3), (21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3)), EPA is
publishing notice of the petition so that
the public has an opportunity to
comment on this request for the
establishment or modification of
regulations for residues of pesticides in
or on food commodities. Further
information on the petition may be
obtained through the petition summary
referenced in this unit.

PP 0F7767. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2009–
0996). Enviro Tech Chemical Services,
Inc., 500 Winmoore Way, Modesto, CA

brussel sprouts; carrot; cauliflower;
celery; cherry; cabbage; lettuce; fruits,
citrus; cucumber; onion, green; melon;
peach; nectarine; plum; pear; pepper,
bell; potato; radish; fruit, stone; and
tomato. The petitioner believes no
analytical method is needed because
this petition requests the exemption
from the requirement of a tolerance.
