Pesticide Chemicals; Registration 

Review; Draft Human Health and 

Ecological Risk Assessment; Notice of 

Availability. 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of EPA’s draft human health 

and ecological risk assessments for the 

registration review of chlorfenapyr, 

fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, flumiclorac-pentyl, 

maleic hydrazide, sulfentrazone, and 

tebuthiuron and opens a public 

comment period on these documents. 

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 draft human 

health and ecological risk assessments, 

including an endangered species 

assessment, for all uses of the 

previously listed pesticide chemicals. 

After reviewing comments received 

during the public comment period, EPA 

will issue revised risk assessments, 

explain any changes to the draft risk 

assessments, and respond to comments 

and may request public input on risk 

mitigation before completing proposed 

registration review decisions for the 

previously listed pesticide chemicals. 

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.

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to 

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. To help 

address potential environmental justice 

issues, the Agency seeks information on 

any groups or segments of the 

population who, as a result of their 

location, cultural practices, or other 

factors, may have atypical or 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticides 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. Authority 

EPA is conducting its registration 

review of chlorfenapyr, fenoxaprop-pethyl, flumiclorac-pentyl, maleic 

hydrazide, sulfentrazone, and 

tebuthiuron 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). 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. 

III. Registration Reviews 

A. What action is the Agency taking? 

As directed by FIFRA section 3(g), 

EPA is reviewing the pesticide 

registrations for chlorfenapyr, 

fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, flumiclorac-pentyl, 

maleic hydrazide, sulfentrazone, and 

tebuthiuron to ensure that they continue 

to satisfy the FIFRA standard for 

registration—that is, that these 

pesticides can still be used without 

unreasonable adverse effects on human 

health or the environment. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.53(c), EPA is 

providing an opportunity, through this 

notice of availability, for interested 

parties to provide comments and input 

concerning the Agency’s draft human 

health and ecological risk assessments 

for chlorfenapyr, fenoxaprop-p-ethyl, 

flumiclorac-pentyl, maleic hydrazide, 

sulfentrazone, and tebuthiuron. Such 

comments and input could address, 

among other things, the Agency’s risk 

assessment methodologies and 

assumptions, as applied to these draft 

risk assessments. The Agency will 

consider all comments received during 

the public comment period and make 

changes, as appropriate, to the draft 

human health and ecological risk 

assessments. EPA will then issue 

revised risk assessments, explain any 

changes to the draft risk assessments, 

and respond to comments. In the 

Federal Register notice announcing the 

availability of the revised risk 

assessments, if the revised risk 

assessments indicate risks of concern, 

the Agency may provide a comment 

period for the public to submit 

suggestions for mitigating the risk 

identified in the revised risk 

assessments. At present, EPA is 

releasing registration review draft risk 

assessments for the pesticide cases 

identified in the following table and 

further described after the table.

• Chlorfenapyr. Chlorfenapyr is an 

insecticide/miticide used to control a 

wide range of mites and insects such as 

caterpillars, centipedes, thrips, fungus 

gnats, ants, cockroaches, beetles, bed 

bugs, silverfish, spiders, and termites. 

Chlorfenapyr is registered for use on 

greenhouse food and non-food crops, 

and as an insecticide/termiticide for use 

on indoor and outdoor residential sites, 

food/feed handling areas, indoor and 

outdoor commercial sites (including 

sewers), and indoor medical sites. EPA 

has completed a draft human health risk 

assessment for all chlorfenapyr uses. In 

addition, the Agency has determined 

that there is limited outdoor 

environmental exposure from the use of 

chlorfenapyr and has come to a no-effect 

determination for endangered species. 

• Fenoxaprop-p-ethyl. Fenoxaprop-pethyl is an herbicide used to control 

weeds on barley, cotton, rice, soybeans, 

and wheat. It is also registered for nonagricultural use on conservation reserve 

lands, ornamentals, rights-of-way, and
