II. What action is the agency taking?
EPA is announcing its receipt of
several pesticide petitions filed under
section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C.
346a, requesting 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. The Agency is taking
public comment on the requests before
responding to the petitioners. EPA is not
proposing any particular action at this
time. EPA has determined that the
pesticide petitions described in this
document contain the 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 support granting of the
pesticide petitions. After considering
the public comments, EPA intends to
evaluate whether and what action may
be warranted. Additional data may be
needed before EPA can make a final
determination on these pesticide
petitions.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a
summary of each of the petitions that
are the subject of this document,
prepared by the petitioner, is included
in a docket EPA has created for each
rulemaking. The docket for each of the
petitions 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.

Cypermethrin is a pyrethroid insecticide
consisting of three asymmetric carbon
atoms, and therefore, 8 stereo-isomeric
mixtures. Cypermethrin is also
characterized as consisting of cis- and
trans-configured diastereo-isomeric
components based on orientation
around its cyclopropane ring. Zetacypermethrin and alpha-cypermethrin
are optimized stereo-isomeric mixtures
of cypermethrin, each consisting of 4
major components. These zetacypermethrin and alpha-cypermethrin
components are the enriched trans(alpha-S) and cis (cis2-R) isomeric
orientations of cypermethrin,
respectively. There is a practical
analytical method for detecting and
measuring levels of cypermethrin in or
on food with a limit of detection (LOD)
that allows monitoring of food with
residues at or above the levels set in
these tolerances GC with electron
capture detection (GC/ECD) and liquid
chromatography with tandem mass
spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) methods are
available. Contact: Bewanda Alexander,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. General Information
A. Does this action apply to me?
You may be potentially affected by this action if you are an
agricultural producer, food manufacturer, or pesticide manufacturer.
Potentially affected entities may include, but are not limited to:
Crop production (NAICS code 111).
Animal production (NAICS code 112).
Food manufacturing (NAICS code 311).
Pesticide manufacturing (NAICS code 32532).
This listing is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather provides
a guide for readers regarding entities likely to be affected by this
action. Other types of entities not listed in this unit could also be
affected. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS)
codes have been provided to assist you and others in determining
whether this action might apply to certain entities. If you have any
questions regarding the applicability of this action to a particular
entity, consult the person listed at the end of the pesticide petition
summary of interest.
B. What should I consider as I prepare my comments for EPA?
1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that 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 copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.
iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.
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 its receipt of several pesticide petitions filed
under section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA),
21 U.S.C. 346a, requesting 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. The Agency is taking
public comment on the requests before responding to the petitioners.
EPA is not proposing any particular action at this time. EPA has
determined that the pesticide petitions described in this document
contain the 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 support granting of the pesticide
petitions. After considering the public comments, EPA intends to
evaluate whether and what action may be warranted. Additional data may
be needed before EPA can make a final determination on these pesticide
petitions.
Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of each of the petitions
that are the subject of this document, prepared by the petitioner, is
included in a docket EPA has created for each rulemaking. The docket
for each of the petitions 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.

Cypermethrin is a pyrethroid insecticide consisting of three asymmetric
carbon atoms, and therefore, 8 stereo-isomeric mixtures. Cypermethrin
is also characterized as consisting of cis- and trans-configured
diastereo-isomeric components based on orientation around its
cyclopropane ring. Zeta-cypermethrin and alpha-cypermethrin are
optimized stereo-isomeric mixtures of cypermethrin, each consisting of
4 major components. These zeta-cypermethrin and alpha-cypermethrin
components are the enriched trans- (alpha-S) and cis (cis2-R) isomeric
orientations of cypermethrin, respectively. There is a practical
analytical method for detecting and measuring levels of cypermethrin in
or on food with a limit of detection (LOD) that allows monitoring of
food with residues at or above the levels set in these tolerances GC
with electron capture detection (GC/ECD) and liquid chromatography with
tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) methods are available. Contact:
