Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 11 / Wednesday, January 16, 2013 / Notices
of WDL versus the current pesticide
product labeling.
As considered by EPA, WDL would
make available via the Internet site- and
state-specific use directions for
pesticide products as downloadable
electronic files. To access this labeling,
a user would visit the Web site
identified on the pesticide label, enter
information identifying the product, and
select the intended state and use site.
The Web site would return a
streamlined version of the pesticide
labeling containing the language
applicable to all uses of the product,
such as hazard statement and first aid,
and the relevant state/site specific
directions for use (e.g., application to
cranberries in Maine). Sufficient
labeling for the correct use of the
product would still be available with
the pesticide either on the container
label or in accompanying material.

III. Do PR notices contain binding
requirements?

The PR Notice discussed in this
notice is intended to provide guidance
to EPA personnel and decisionmakers
and to pesticide registrants. While the
requirements in the statutes and Agency
regulations are binding on EPA and the
applicants, this PR Notice is not binding
on either EPA or pesticide registrants,
and EPA may depart from the guidance
where circumstances warrant and
without prior notice. Likewise, pesticide
registrants may assert that the guidance
is not appropriate generally or not
applicable to a specific pesticide or
situation.
