II. Summary of Petitioned-For Tolerance

    In the Federal Register of April 28, 2022 (87 FR 25178) (FRL-9410-
12-OCSPP), EPA issued a document pursuant to FFDCA section 408(d)(3), 
21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), announcing the filing of a pesticide petition (PP 
1E8957) by IR-4, North Carolina State University, 1730 Varsity Drive, 
Venture IV, Suite 210, Raleigh, NC 27606. The petition requested that 
40 CFR 180.433 be amended by establishing tolerances for residues of 
fomesafen, 5-2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy-N-(methylsulfonyl)-2-
nitrobenzamide in or on the raw agricultural commodities Vegetable, 
bulb, group 3-07 at 0.02 parts per million (ppm); Vegetable, cucurbit, 
group 9 at 0.025 ppm; Vegetable, foliage of legume, except soybean, 
subgroup 7A at 0.05 ppm; and Vegetable, fruiting, group 8-10 at 0.025 
ppm.
    The petition also proposed to remove established tolerances for 
residues of fomesafen in or on the following: Cantaloupe at 0.025 ppm; 
Cucumber at 0.025 ppm; Pepper, bell at 0.025 ppm; Pepper, non-bell at 
0.025 ppm; Pumpkin at 0.025 ppm; Squash, summer at 0.025 ppm; Squash, 
winter at 0.025 ppm; Tomato at 0.025 ppm; and Watermelon at 0.025 ppm.
    That document referenced a summary of the petition, which is 
available in the docket, https://www.regulations.gov. One comment was 
submitted in response to this petition. EPA's response to this comment 
can be found in Unit VI.D. of this publication.
    Based upon review of the data supporting the petition and in 
accordance with its authority under FFDCA section 408(d)(4)(A)(i), EPA 
is modifying some of the requested tolerances and one of the tolerance 
definitions. For details, see Unit VI.C.

III. Aggregate Risk Assessment and Determination of Safety

    Section 408(b)(2)(A)(i) of FFDCA allows EPA to establish a 
tolerance (the legal limit for a pesticide chemical residue in or on a 
food) only if EPA determines that the tolerance is ``safe.'' Section 
408(b)(2)(A)(ii) of FFDCA defines ``safe'' to mean that ``there is a 
reasonable certainty that no harm will result from aggregate exposure 
to the pesticide chemical residue, including all anticipated dietary 
exposures and all other exposures for which there is reliable 
information.'' This includes exposure through drinking water and in 
residential settings but does not include occupational exposure. 
Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA requires EPA to give special 
consideration to exposure of infants and children to the pesticide 
chemical residue in establishing a tolerance and to ``ensure that there 
is a reasonable certainty that no harm will result to infants and 
children from aggregate exposure to the pesticide chemical residue . . 
. .''
    Consistent with FFDCA section 408(b)(2)(D), and the factors 
specified

[[Page 29837]]

therein, EPA has reviewed the available scientific data and other 
relevant information in support of this action. EPA has sufficient data 
to assess the hazards of and to make a determination on aggregate 
exposure for fomesafen including exposure resulting from the tolerances 
established by this action. EPA's assessment of exposures and risks 
associated with fomesafen follows.
    In an effort to streamline its publications in the Federal 
Register, EPA is not reprinting sections that repeat what has been 
previously published for tolerance rulemaking of the same pesticide 
chemical. Where scientific information concerning a particular chemical 
remains unchanged, the content of those sections would not vary between 
tolerance rulemaking, and EPA considers referral back to those sections 
as sufficient to provide an explanation of the information EPA 
considered in making its safety determination for the new rulemaking.
    EPA has previously published a tolerance rulemaking for fomesafen, 
in which EPA concluded, based on the available information, that there 
is a reasonable certainty that no harm would result from aggregate 
exposure to fomesafen and established tolerances for residues of that 
chemical. EPA is incorporating previously published sections of that 
rulemaking that remains unchanged, as described further in this 
rulemaking. Specific information on the risk assessment conducted in 
support of this action, including on the studies received and the 
nature of the adverse effects caused by fomesafen, can be found in the 
document titled ``Fomesafen. Human Health Risk Assessment for the 
Petition to Establish Permanent Tolerances and Associated Registrations 
for Bulb Vegetable (Group 3-07) and Vegetable, Foliage of Legume Except 
Soybean (Subgroup 7A) and for Proposed Crop Group Conversions and 
Expansions for Vegetable, Cucurbit (Group 9) and Vegetable, Fruiting 
(Group 8-10).'' (hereafter, the Fomesafen Human Health Assessment) 
which is available in the docket for this action at https://www.regulations.gov.
    Toxicological profile. Fomesafen is an herbicide that is absorbed 
by leaves and roots and inhibits potato polyphenol oxidase (PPO), 
leading to irreversible cell membrane damage. PPO inhibits a step in 
the protoporphyrin synthesis pathway and is a precursor to both 
chlorophyll and hemoglobin synthesis. The toxicological database for 
fomesafen is complete. The primary target organ of fomesafen is the 
liver. Generally, in rats, after subchronic and chronic exposure, liver 
histopathology (hyalinization of hepatocytes, necrosis, etc.) provided 
the most sensitive toxicological endpoint. In mice, liver tumors were 
observed after chronic exposure, and liver carcinogenicity has been 
established by a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-
alpha mode of action. Decreased motor activity was observed at doses 
above those causing liver toxicity. Post-implantation loss was noted in 
the rat developmental study, but no quantitative or qualitative 
evidence of increased susceptibility was seen following in utero 
exposure to rats in developmental studies or in the 2-generation 
reproduction study. Fomesafen can result in suppression of anti-sheep 
red blood cell (SRBC) immunoglobulin M response; however, this 
immunotoxic potential was noted only at high doses. In a metabolism 
study in rats, fomesafen was readily absorbed in male and female rats 
after oral dosing. The sex difference was not evident at higher doses, 
where urine was the main route of excretion after a single oral dose of 
500 mg/kg. However, a marked sex difference in disposition was observed 
at low doses, with females excreting a higher percentage compared to 
males.
    Carcinogenicity was not observed in the rat chronic toxicity/
carcinogenicity study. Liver tumors were produced in the mouse 
carcinogenicity study; however, the Agency determined that fomesafen 
should be classified as ``Not Likely to be Carcinogenic to Humans.'' 
This decision was based on the weight-of-evidence (WOE) which supports 
activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha 
(PPAR[alpha]) as the mode of action for fomesafen-induced 
hepatocarcinogenesis in mice.
    Toxicological points of departure/Levels of concern. The 
toxicological endpoints for fomesafen have changed since the last 
rulemaking and have been updated in accordance with current hazard 
evaluation practices. For a summary of the Toxicological Points of 
Departure/Levels of Concern used for the safety assessment, see Section 
4.5.3. of the Fomesafen Human Health Assessment.
    Exposure assessment. Much of the exposure assessment remains the 
same since the rulemaking that published on February 7, 2018 (83 FR 
5312) (FRL-9972-66), although the new exposure assessment incorporates 
additional dietary exposures from the petitioned-for tolerances. These 
updates are discussed in this section; for a description of the rest of 
EPA's approach to and assumptions for the exposure assessment, see Unit 
III.C in the February 7, 2018, rulemaking.
    EPA conducted unrefined acute and chronic dietary (food and 
drinking water) exposure and risk assessments using the Dietary 
Exposure Evaluation Model with the Food Commodity Intake Database 
(DEEM-FCID, ver. 4.02) which incorporates food consumption data from 
the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Health and 
Nutrition Examination Survey, What We Eat in America (NHANES/WWEIA; 
2005-2010). The acute and chronic dietary assessments used tolerance-
level residues, 100 percent crop treated (PCT) and default processing 
factors.
    Drinking water and non-occupational exposures. The estimated 
drinking water concentrations (EDWCs) have been updated since the 2018 
rulemaking. The Agency used EDWCs of 154 parts per billion for the 
acute assessment and 118 ppb for the chronic assessment.
    There are no proposed or registered residential uses of fomesafen 
at this time; therefore, a quantitative residential assessment was not 
conducted.
    Cumulative exposure. Section 408(b)(2)(D)(v) of FFDCA requires 
that, when considering whether to establish, modify, or revoke a 
tolerance, the Agency consider ``available information'' concerning the 
cumulative effects of a particular pesticide's residues and ``other 
substances that have a common mechanism of toxicity.'' Unlike other 
pesticides for which EPA has followed a cumulative risk approach based 
on a common mechanism of toxicity, EPA has not made a common mechanism 
of toxicity finding as to fomesafen and any other substances. For the 
purposes of this action, therefore, EPA has not assumed that fomesafen 
has a common mechanism of toxicity with other substances.

IV. Safety Factor for Infants and Children

    1. In general. Section 408(b)(2)(C) of FFDCA provides that EPA 
shall apply an additional tenfold (10X) margin of safety for infants 
and children in the case of threshold effects to account for prenatal 
and postnatal toxicity and the completeness of the database on toxicity 
and exposure unless EPA determines based on reliable data that a 
different margin of safety will be safe for infants and children. This 
additional margin of safety is commonly referred to as the Food Quality 
Protection Act (FQPA) Safety Factor (SF). In applying this provision, 
EPA either retains the default value of 10X, or uses a different 
additional safety factor when reliable data available to EPA support 
the choice of a different factor.
    2. Prenatal and postnatal sensitivity. There is no evidence of 
increased

[[Page 29838]]

susceptibility of rat fetuses to in utero exposure to fomesafen. Post-
implantation loss was noted in the rat developmental study, but no 
quantitative or qualitative evidence of increased susceptibility was 
seen following in utero exposure to rats in developmental studies or in 
the 2-generation reproduction study. As the etiology of the post-
implantation loss is unknown, it is considered to be both a maternal 
and fetal endpoint and not indicative of increased susceptibility.
    3. Conclusion. EPA has determined that reliable data show the 
safety of infants and children would be adequately protected if the 
Food Quality Protection Act Safety Factor were reduced to 1X. That 
decision is based on the following findings:
    i. The toxicology database for fomesafen is complete and sufficient 
for assessing potential susceptibility to infants and children.
    ii. The potential of neurotoxicity (decreased motor activity) was 
observed in the acute neurotoxicity study in the rat. However, there is 
a low degree of concern for the potential neurotoxic effects of 
fomesafen since (1) clear no observed adverse effect levels (NOAELs) 
were identified for the neurotoxic effects; and (2) the endpoints 
chosen for risk assessment are protective of any potential 
neurotoxicity.
    iii. There is no evidence of increased susceptibility after 
exposure to fomesafen. Post-implantation loss was observed in the rat 
developmental toxicity study. However, as the etiology of the effect is 
unknown, it is considered to be both a maternal and fetal effect.
    iv. There are no residential uses for fomesafen, and the dietary 
assessment is based on high-end exposure assumptions including 100 PCT, 
tolerance level residues, and high-end estimates derived from ground 
drinking water modeling estimates. These exposure assessments are not 
likely to underestimate the resulting estimates of risk from exposure 
to fomesafen.

V. Aggregate Risks and Determination of Safety

    EPA determines whether acute and chronic dietary pesticide 
exposures are safe by comparing dietary exposure estimates to the acute 
population-adjusted dose (aPAD) and chronic population-adjusted dose 
(cPAD). Short-, intermediate-, and chronic-term aggregate risks are 
evaluated by comparing the estimated total food, water, and residential 
exposure to the appropriate points of departure to ensure that an 
adequate margin of exposure (MOE) exists.
    Acute dietary (food and drinking water) risks are below the 
Agency's level of concern of 100% of the aPAD: they are 2.8% of the 
aPAD for all infants less than 1 year old, the population group with 
the highest exposure estimate. Chronic dietary (food and drinking 
water) risks are below the Agency's level of concern of 100% of the 
cPAD: they are 18% of the cPAD for all infants less than 1 year old, 
which is the population subgroup with the highest exposure estimate.
    Because there are no proposed or registered residential uses of 
fomesafen, the acute and chronic aggregate risks are the same as the 
dietary (food and drinking water) risks and are not of concern. 
Finally, because fomesafen is classified as ``Not Likely to be 
Carcinogenic to Humans'' due to an absence of carcinogenicity in the 
available studies, EPA concludes that aggregate exposure to fomesafen 
will not pose a cancer risk.
    Therefore, based on the risk assessments and information described 
above, EPA concludes there is a reasonable certainty that no harm will 
result to the general population, or to infants and children, from 
aggregate exposure to fomesafen residues.

VI. Other Considerations

A. Analytical Enforcement Methodology

    For a discussion of the available analytical enforcement method, 
see Unit IV.A. of the February 7, 2018, rulemaking.

B. International Residue Limits

    In making its tolerance decisions, EPA seeks to harmonize U.S. 
tolerances with international standards whenever possible, consistent 
with U.S. food safety standards and agricultural practices. EPA 
considers the international maximum residue limits (MRLs) established 
by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex), as required by FFDCA 
section 408(b)(4).
    There are currently no established Codex MRLs for the proposed new 
uses of fomesafen.

C. Revisions to Tolerances

    The petitioner requested tolerances for the Vegetable, foliage of 
legume, except soybean, subgroup 7A, but EPA is establishing the 
tolerance for the new crop subgroup Vegetable, legume, forage and hay, 
except soybeans, subgroup 7-22A. As noted in EPA's regulations, once a 
revised crop group is established, EPA no longer establishes crop 
groups under the pre-existing crop group. See 40 CFR 180.40(j)(4). EPA 
updated subgroup 7A in its final rule dated September 21, 2022. See 
Pesticides; Expansion of Crop Grouping Program VI (87 FR 57627) (FRL-
5031-13-OCSPP). Additionally, the petitioned-for tolerances of 0.025 
ppm for the Vegetable, cucurbit, group 9 and Vegetable, fruiting, group 
8-10 are being established at 0.03 ppm to be consistent with Agency 
rounding practice.

D. Response to Comments

    One comment was received in response to the Notice of Filing. The 
commenter stated in part that they were ``against approval of any of 
the below applications for further pollution of the air water soil of 
this earth'' and that the Agency should ``shut down these dirty rotten 
businesses. now.'' Although the Agency recognizes that some individuals 
believe that pesticides should be banned on agricultural crops, the 
existing legal framework provided by section 408 of the FFDCA 
authorizes EPA to establish tolerances when it determines that the 
tolerances are safe. Upon consideration of the validity, completeness, 
and reliability of the available data as well as other factors the 
FFDCA requires EPA to consider, EPA has determined that the fomesafen 
tolerances are safe. The commenter has provided no information 
indicating that a safety determination cannot be supported.

VII. Conclusion

    Therefore, tolerances are established for residues of fomesafen in 
or on the Vegetable, bulb, group 3-07 at 0.02 ppm; Vegetable, cucurbit, 
group 9 at 0.03 ppm; Vegetable, fruiting, group 8-10 at 0.03 ppm; and 
Vegetable, legume, forage and hay, except soybean, subgroup 7-22A at 
0.05 ppm.
    Additionally, the established tolerances on Cantaloupe; Cucumber; 
Pepper, bell; Pepper, non-bell; Pumpkin; Squash, summer; Squash, 
winter; Tomato; and Watermelon are removed as unnecessary.

VIII. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    This action establishes tolerances under FFDCA section 408(d) in 
response to a petition submitted to the Agency. The Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) has exempted these types of actions from 
review under Executive Order 12866, entitled ``Regulatory Planning and 
Review'' (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993). Because this action has been 
exempted from review under Executive Order 12866, this action is not 
subject to Executive Order 13211, entitled ``Actions Concerning 
Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or 
Use'' (66

[[Page 29839]]

FR 28355, May 22, 2001), or to Executive Order 13045, entitled 
``Protection of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety 
Risks'' (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997). This action does not contain any 
information collections subject to OMB approval under the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), nor does it require any 
special considerations under Executive Order 12898, entitled ``Federal 
Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and 
Low-Income Populations'' (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994).
    Since tolerances and exemptions that are established on the basis 
of a petition under FFDCA section 408(d), such as the tolerances in 
this final rule, do not require the issuance of a proposed rule, the 
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et 
seq.), do not apply.
    This action directly regulates growers, food processors, food 
handlers, and food retailers, not States or Tribes, nor does this 
action alter the relationships or distribution of power and 
responsibilities established by Congress in the preemption provisions 
of FFDCA section 408(n)(4). As such, the Agency has determined that 
this action will not have a substantial direct effect on States or 
Tribal governments, on the relationship between the National Government 
and the States or Tribal governments, or on the distribution of power 
and responsibilities among the various levels of government or between 
the Federal Government and Indian Tribes. Thus, the Agency has 
determined that Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR 
43255, August 10, 1999), and Executive Order 13175, entitled 
``Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR 
67249, November 9, 2000), do not apply to this action. In addition, 
this action does not impose any enforceable duty or contain any 
unfunded mandate as described under Title II of the Unfunded Mandates 
Reform Act (UMRA) (2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.).
    This action does not involve any technical standards that would 
require Agency consideration of voluntary consensus standards pursuant 
to section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement 
Act (NTTAA) (15 U.S.C. 272 note).

IX. Congressional Review Act

    Pursuant to the Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), 
EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other required 
information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and 
the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of 
the rule in the Federal Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' 
as defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
