The regulations governing section 18 of FIFRA allow for publication of a notice of receipt of an application for a specific exemption if the Administrator determines that publication of a notice is appropriate. The applicant proposes a use of a pesticide containing streptomycin sulfate, which is also used in human and animal treatment as an antibiotic. The 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 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
