this action to a particular entity, consult the person listed at the end of the pesticide petition summary of interest.

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 e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI
information in 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.

2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments, remember

to:

i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).

ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part
or section number.

iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and substitute language for your requested changes.

iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information and/ or data that you used.

v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be reproduced.

vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and suggest
alternatives.

vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of profanity or personal threats.

viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

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. What action is the Agency taking?

EPA is announcing its receipt of several pesticide petitions filed under section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a, requesting the establishment or modification of regulations in 40 CFR part 174 or part 180 for residues of pesticide chemicals in or on various food commodities. The Agency is taking public comment on the requests before responding to the petitioners. EPA is not proposing any particular action at this
time. EPA has determined that the pesticide petitions described in this
document contain the data or information prescribed in FFDCA section 408(d)(2); however, EPA has not fully evaluated the sufficiency of the
submitted data at this time or whether the data support granting of the pesticide petitions. After considering the public comments, EPA intends to evaluate whether and what action may be warranted. Additional data may be
needed before EPA can make a final determination on these pesticide petitions.

Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of each of the petitions that are the subject of this document, prepared by the petitioner, is included
in a docket EPA has created for each rulemaking. The docket for each of the petitions is available on-line at http:// www.regulations.gov.

As specified in FFDCA section 408(d)(3), (21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3)), EPA is publishing notice of the petition so that the public has an opportunity to comment on this request for the
establishment or modification of regulations for residues of pesticides in
or on food commodities. Further information on the petition may be obtained through the petition summary
referenced in this unit.

New Tolerances

1. PP 1E7890. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0758). Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR–4), Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, 500 College Road East, Suite 201–W., Princeton, NJ 08540, requests to establish tolerances in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of the herbicide sulfentrazone (N -[2,4- dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5- dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1 H -1,2,4- triazol-1-yl]phenyl]- methanesulfonamide) and its metabolites 3-hydroxymethylsulfentrazone (N -[2,4-dichloro-5-[4- (difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3- hydroxymethyl-5-oxo-1 H -1,2,4-triazol-1- yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide) and 3- desmethyl sulfentrazone (N -[2,4- dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5- dihydro-5-oxo-1 H -1,2,4-triazol-1- yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide), in or on rhubarb at 0.2 parts per million (ppm); turnip, roots at 0.2 ppm; turnip, tops at 0.7 ppm; and sunflower subgroup 20B at 0.2 ppm; ‘‘Tolerances with regional registrations’’ in or on wheat, forage at 0.45 ppm (Pacific Northwest only); wheat, hay at 0.20 ppm (Pacific Northwest only); wheat, grain at 0.20 ppm (Pacific Northwest only); wheat, straw at 1.4 ppm (Pacific Northwest only); and cowpea, succulent at 0.15 ppm (Tennessee only). There is a practical analytical method for detecting and measuring levels of
sulfentrazone and its metabolites in or on food with a limit of quantitation that allows monitoring of food with residues at or above the levels set or proposed in the tolerances. The analytical
enforcement method for sulfentrazone
was used with minor modification that eliminated several clean-up and derivatization steps that was required for gas chromatography with mass selective detection (GC/MSD) but not for liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection (LC/MS/ MS). The analytical method for sulfentrazone involves separate analyses for parent and its metabolites. The parent is analyzed by evaporation and reconstitution of the sample prior to analysis by LC/MS/MS GC/electron capture detector (ECD). The metabolites samples were refluxed in the presence of acid and cleaned up with solid phase extraction prior to analysis by LC/MS/

MS. Contact: Laura Nollen, (703) 305–

2. PP 1F7872. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0743). Agriphar S.A., c/o Ceres International, LLC., 1087 Heartsease Drive, West Chester, PA 19382, requests to establish tolerances in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of the fungicide dodine (dodecylguanidine acetate), in or on stone fruits (Group 12) at 5 parts per million (ppm); tree nuts (Group 14, except almond hulls) at 0.3 ppm; and almond hulls at 12 ppm. An adequate enforcement method using GC/mass spectrometry detection (MSD), Method 45137, is available for determining dodine residues in or on plant commodities. Concerning tree crops, a method using LC/MS/MS; METH1595.02, after the samples were extracted with methanol, was


### 61649 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 193 / Wednesday, October 5, 2011 / Proposed Rules

submitted. Adequate data collection method validation, independentlaboratory validation (ILV), and radiovalidation data for the method has been
submitted. Since there is no reasonable expectation of finding residues of dodine in livestock or poultry, no analytical method for animal tissues is required. Contact: Tamue L. Gibson, (703) 305–9096, e-mail address: gibson.tamue@epa.gov.

3. PP 1F7887. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0741). Cytec Industries, Inc., 5 Garret Mountain Plaza, Woodland Park, NJ 07424, requests to establish tolerances in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of phosphine, in or on asparagus; cherimoya; dates, fresh; figs, fresh; globe artichokes; pawpaws; pineapple, water chestnuts and watercress, and for all fresh fruit and vegetable crop groups (including berry and small fruit; citrus fruit; pome fruit; stone fruit; herbs and spices; Brassica leafy vegetables; leafy vegetables; bulb vegetables; cucurbits; fruiting vegetables except cucurbits; legume vegetables, except soybeans; foliage of legume vegetables; root and tuber group; and root and tuber leaves group) at 0.01 ppm. The PAM Vol. II lists, under aluminum phosphide, a
colorimetric method level of detection (LOD = 0.01) and a gas liquid chromatography (GLC) method with a flame photometric detection (LOD = 0.001 ppm) as Method A and B, respectively, for the enforcement of
tolerances. The residue of concern is phosphine. It is noted that Method A,
remains a lettered method because of
variable recoveries observed in an Agency method try-out. However, the
method has been determined to be acceptable for enforcement because phosphine is highly reactive, and finite residues are not expected. Data submitted in support of the established tolerances were collected by one of these two methods. Because phosphine is an inorganic compound, recovery of residues using FDA Multiresidue Protocols is not expected, and the requirement for such data has been waived by the Agency. Contact: Gene Benbow, (703) 347–0235, e-mail address: benbow.gene@epa.gov.

4. PP 1F7897. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2009– 0677). Arysta LifeScience, North America, LLC., 15401 Weston Parkway, Suite 150, Cary, NC 27513, requests to establish a tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for residues of the fungicide fluoxastrobin, (1 E )-[2-[[6-(2- chlorophenoxy)-5-fluoro-4-pyrimydinyl]oxy]phenyl] (5,6-dihydro1,4,2-dioxazin-3-yl)methanone O
methyloxime, and its Z-isomer, (1 Z )-[2- [[6-(2-chlorophenoxy)-5-fluoro-4-pyrimydinyl]oxy]phenyl] (5,6-dihydro1,4,2-dioxazin-3-yl)methanone O
methyloxime, in or on rice, grain at 6.0 ppm. Adequate analytical methodology is available for enforcement purposes. The method comprises microwave solvent extraction followed by a solid phase extraction clean-up and quantification by high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection (HPLC/ MS/MS). The individual detector responses for measured E - and Z
isomers is summed to give total residue.

Amended Tolerance

PP 1E7890. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0758). Interregional Research Project Number 4 (IR–4), Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, 500 College Road East, Suite 201–W., Princeton, NJ 08540, requests to amend the current
tolerances in 40 CFR 180.498 for
residues of the herbicide sulfentrazone (N

-[2,4-dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)- 4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1 H -1,2,4- triazol-1-yl]phenyl]- methanesulfonamide) and itsmetabolites 3-hydroxymethylsulfentrazone ( N -[2,4-dichloro-5-[4- (difluoromethyl)-4,5-dihydro-3- hydroxymethyl-5-oxo-1 H -1,2,4-triazol-1- yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide) and 3- desmethyl sulfentrazone ( N -[2,4- dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5- dihydro-5-oxo-1 H -1,2,4-triazol-1- yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide), in or on bean, lima, succulent at 0.15 ppm by removing the tolerance from the table in Section (a)(2) and adding the tolerance to Section (c) Tolerances with regional registrations. Upon approval of the
aforementioned tolerance under ‘‘New Tolerances’’, the petition additionally proposes to remove the established tolerance in or on the raw agricultural commodity sunflower, seed at 0.2 ppm.

New Tolerance Exemptions

1. PP 1E7903. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0736). ISK Biosciences Corporation, 7470 Auburn Road, Suite A, Concord, OH 44077, requests to establish an exemption from the requirement of a
tolerance for residues of D-mannose (CAS No. 3458–28–4) under 40 CFR
180.920 when used as an inert ingredient (sequestrant) in pesticide formulations applied pre-harvest to all raw agricultural commodities. The petitioner believes no analytical method
is needed because this information is not required for the establishment of a tolerance exemption. Contact: Mark Dow, (703) 305–5533, e-mail address: dow.mark@epa.gov.

2. PP 1E7909. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011– 0732). Momentive Performance Materials, 22 Corporate Woods Blvd., Albany, NY 12211, requests to establish an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of 2-Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, polymer with butyl 2- propenoate and ethenylbenzene (CAS No. 25036–16–2) under 40 CFR 180.960 when used as a pesticide inert ingredient as a sticker in pesticide
formulations without limitation. The petitioner believes no analytical method
is needed because this information is not required for the establishment of a tolerance exemption. Contact: Elizabeth Fertich, (703) 347–8560, e-mail address: fertich.elizabeth@epa.gov.
