SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with PROPOSALS1 I. Background Under section 409(b)(5) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 348(b)(5)), we are giving notice that we have filed a food additive petition (FAP 4A4839), submitted by Environmental Defense Fund, Breast Cancer Prevention Partners, Center for Environmental Health, Environmental Working Group, and Lisa Lefferts, c/o Lisa Lefferts, Nellysford, VA 22958. The petition proposes that we amend §§ 172.560 (21 CFR 172.560, ‘‘Modified hop extract’’), 172.710 (21 CFR 172.710, ‘‘Adjuvants for pesticide use dilutions’’), 173.230 (21 CFR 173.230, ‘‘Ethylene dichloride’’), 173.255 (21 CFR 172.255, ‘‘Methylene chloride’’), 173.290 (21 CFR 173.290, ‘‘Trichloroethylene’’), and 173.315 (21 CFR 173.315, ‘‘Chemicals used in washing or to assist in the peeling of fruits and vegetables’’) to remove the use of four specified solvents. The four solvents that are the subject of this petition are: 1. Benzene (CAS No. 71–43–2); 2. Ethylene dichloride (CAS No. 107–06– 2); 3. Methylene chloride (CAS No. 75–09–2); and 4. Trichloroethylene (CAS No. 79–01–6). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:01 Jan 10, 2024 Jkt 262001 II. Request To Amend 21 CFR Parts 172 and 173 In accordance with the procedures for amending or repealing a food additive regulation in § 171.130 (21 CFR 171.130), the petition asks us to amend §§ 172.560, 172.710, 173.230, 173.255, 173.290, and 173.315 to remove benzene, ethylene dichloride, methylene chloride, and trichloroethylene. Specifically, the petitioners state that these substances have been found to induce cancer in humans or animals and, therefore, are not safe pursuant to section 409(c)(3)(A) of the FD&C Act (also referred to as the ‘‘Delaney Clause’’). The Delaney Clause provides that no food additive shall be deemed to be safe if it is found to induce cancer when ingested by man or animal, or if it is found after tests which are appropriate for the evaluation of the safety of food additives, to induce cancer in man or animal. The petition is available in the docket. We invite comments, additional scientific data, and other information related to the issues raised by this petition. If we determine that the available data justify amending §§ 172.560, 172.710, 173.230, 173.255, 173.290, and 173.315 to remove benzene, ethylene dichloride, methylene chloride, and trichloroethylene, we will publish our decision in the Federal Register in accordance with § 171.130. The petitioners have claimed that this action is categorically excluded under 21 CFR 25.32(m), which applies to an action to prohibit or otherwise restrict or reduce the use of a substance in food, food packaging, or cosmetics. In addition, the petitioners have stated that, to their knowledge, no extraordinary circumstances exist (see 21 CFR 25.21). If FDA determines a categorical exclusion applies, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required. If FDA determines a categorical exclusion does not apply, we will request an environmental assessment and make it available for public inspection. Dated: January 8, 2024. Lauren K. Roth, Associate Commissioner for Policy.
