I. General Information
III. Authority
A. Does this action apply to me?
This action is directed to the public
in general, and may be of interest to a
wide range of stakeholders including
environmental, human health, farm
worker, and agricultural advocates; the
chemical industry; pesticide users; and
members of the public interested in the
sale, distribution, or use of pesticides.
Since others also may be interested, the
Agency has not attempted to describe all
the specific entities that may be affected
by this action. If you have any questions
regarding the applicability of this action
to a particular entity, consult the
Chemical Review Manager for the
pesticide of interest identified in the
Table in Unit IV.
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 on 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.

II. Background
Registration review is EPA’s periodic
review of pesticide registrations to
ensure that each pesticide continues to
satisfy the statutory standard for
registration, that is, the pesticide can
perform its intended function without
unreasonable adverse effects on human
health or the environment. As part of
the registration review process, the
Agency has completed proposed interim
decisions for all pesticides listed in the
Table in Unit IV. Through this program,
EPA is ensuring that each pesticide’s
registration is based on current
scientific and other knowledge,
including its effects on human health
and the environment.
EPA is conducting its registration
review of the chemicals listed in the
Table in Unit IV 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) (7 U.S.C. 136a(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.
IV. What action is the Agency taking?
Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58, this notice
announces the availability of EPA’s
proposed interim registration review
decisions for the pesticides shown in
Table 1 and opens a 60-day public
comment period on the proposed
interim registration review decisions. In
addition, the human health and
ecological risk assessments for
aluminum phosphide, benzyl benzoate,
butoxypolypropylene glycol,
magnesium phosphide, the organic
esters of phosphoric acid (OEPA),
phosphine, and propylene oxide are
also being published for comment at
this time.

The registration review docket for a
pesticide includes earlier documents
related to the registration review case.
For example, the review opened with a
Preliminary Work Plan, for public
comment. A Final Work Plan was
placed in the docket following public
comment on the Preliminary Work Plan.
The documents in the dockets
describe EPA’s rationales for conducting
additional risk assessments for the
registration review of the pesticides
included in the tables in Unit IV, as well
as the Agency’s subsequent risk findings
and consideration of possible risk
mitigation measures. These proposed
interim registration review decisions are
supported by the rationales included in
those documents. Following public
comment, the Agency will issue interim
or final registration review decisions for
the pesticides listed in Table 1 in Unit
IV.
