questions regarding the applicability of 


jlentini on DSK4TPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
61648 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 193 / Wednesday, October 5, 2011 / Proposed Rules 

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-1H-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-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1- 

yl]phenyl]methanesulfonamide) and 3- 

desmethyl sulfentrazone (N-[2,4- 

dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5- 

dihydro-5-oxo-1H-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 


jlentini on DSK4TPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 193 / Wednesday, October 5, 2011 / Proposed Rules 61649 

submitted. Adequate data collection 

method validation, independent 

laboratory 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,

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, (1E)-[2-[[6-(2- 

chlorophenoxy)-5-fluoro-4- 

pyrimydinyl]oxy]phenyl] (5,6-dihydro1,4,2-dioxazin-3-yl)methanone Omethyloxime, and its Z-isomer, (1Z)-[2- 

[[6-(2-chlorophenoxy)-5-fluoro-4- 

pyrimydinyl]oxy]phenyl] (5,6-dihydro1,4,2-dioxazin-3-yl)methanone Omethyloxime, 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 Zisomers is summed to give total residue.

dichloro-5-[4-(difluoromethyl)-4,5- 

dihydro-5-oxo-1H-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
