Request for Public Comment on Proposed Stipulated Injunction Involving Pesticides and the California Red-legged Frog
EPA is making available for comment a proposed Stipulated Injunction that would affect aspects of the registrations of certain pesticides and establish a series of deadlines for the Agency to make ``effects determinations'' and initiate consultation, as appropriate, with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for these pesticides in regard to the California red-legged frog, a species listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. EPA will evaluate all comments received during the public comment period to determine whether all or part of the proposed Stipulated Injunction warrants reconsideration. This proposed Stipulated Injunction, if entered by the Court, would resolve a lawsuit brought against EPA by the Center for Biological Diversity, on terms also acceptable to intervenors CropLife America, American Forest & Paper Association, Western Plant Health Association, Oregonians for Food and Shelter, and Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc.
