viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified. II. Registration Applications
EPA has received an application to register a pesticide product containing the active ingredient aldicarb. On August 16, 2010, shortly before this application for registration was filed, EPA and Bayer, the only current registrant of aldicarb, concluded a Memorandum of Agreement in which
all uses of aldicarb would be cancelled. Pursuant to the provisions of section 3(c) (4) of FIFRA, EPA is hereby providing notice of receipt of the application to reinstate registrations of aldicarb, and an opportunity to comment on this application. Notice of receipt of this application does not imply a decision by the Agency on this application.

File Symbol: 87895–R. Applicant: Ag Logic LLC, 121 S. Estes Drive, Suite 101, Chapel Hill, NC 27514. Product name:
Memik 15G. Active ingredient: Insecticide aldicarb at 15.0%. Proposed classification/Use: Food uses on the following use sites: Cotton, dry beans, peanuts, soybeans, sugar beets, and sweet potatoes. Additional information: The proposed application rate for cotton grown in California for side dress and split application is higher than the currently approved use rate on cotton. The proposed rate is 2.1 lbs. aldicarb/ acre while the currently approved rate is 1.05 lbs. aldicarb/acre. Further, in
contrast to the terms and conditions of
the current time-limited aldicarb registration held by Bayer Corporation, Ag Logic LLC is seeking to obtain permanent registration for the uses cited
in this unit.

**Registration Review; Pesticide Dockets Opened for Review and**  **Comment and Other Docket Actions, and Availability of Updated Schedule** 

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  EPA has established registration review dockets for the


### 17647 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 61 / Wednesday, March 30, 2011 / Notices

pesticides listed in the table in Unit III.A. With this document, EPA is opening the public comment period for these registration reviews. 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. Registration review
dockets contain information that will assist the public in understanding the types of information and issues that the Agency may consider during the course of registration reviews. 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. This document also announces the Agency’s intent not to open registration review dockets for alternaria destruens, 1,2- benzenedicarboxaldehyde, fenvalerate, triethylhexahydrotriazine, and zucchini yellow mosaic virus-weak strain. These pesticides currently do not have any actively registered pesticide products and, therefore, are not scheduled for review under the registration review program. EPA is also announcing the availability of an amended final work plan for the registration review of the pesticide diquat dibromide; this work plan has been amended to incorporate revisions to the data requirements. EPA is announcing the availability of an updated schedule for the pesticide registration review program which provides the timetable for opening dockets during the next 4 years of the program, from FY 2011 to 2014.

**DATES :**  Comments must be received on or before May 31, 2011.

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 pesticide(s) discussed in this document, compared to the general population.

II. Authority

EPA is initiating its reviews of the pesticides identified in this document 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.

The updated schedule for the registration review program is available as provided in 40 CFR 155.42(e) and 155.44 of the Procedural Regulations for Registration Review; Final Rule, document number EPA–HQ–OPP– 2004–0404–0052 at regulations.gov.

III. Registration Reviews

A. What action is the agency taking?

As directed by FIFRA section 3(g), EPA is reviewing the pesticide registrations identified in the table in this unit to assure that they continue to satisfy the FIFRA standard for registration—that is, they can still be
used without unreasonable adverse
effects on human health or the environment. A pesticide’s registration review begins when the Agency establishes a docket for the pesticide’s registration review case and opens the docket for public review and comment. At present, EPA is opening registration
review dockets for the cases identified in the following table.

EPA is also announcing that it will not be opening dockets for alternaria destruens, 1,2- benzenedicarboxaldehyde, fenvalerate, triethylhexahydrotriazine, and zucchini yellow mosaic virus-weak strain because these pesticides are not included in any products actively registered under FIFRA section 3. The Agency will take separate actions to cancel any remaining FIFRA section 24(c) Special Local Needs registrations with these active ingredients and to propose revocation of any affected tolerances that are not supported for import purposes only.

EPA is announcing the availability of an amended final work plan for the registration review of diquat dibromide. The work plan was revised to incorporate changes to the data requirements for registration review. The revised work plan clarifies which sediment toxicity studies are needed for diquat dibromide. Additionally, the amended work plan describes the need for three new ecological studies, in
addition to the studies listed in the original final work plan. The diquat dibromide amended final work plan may be found in registration review docket EPA–OPP–2009–0846, which is
available on-line at http:// regulations.gov.

Lastly, EPA is announcing the availability of an updated registration review schedule which provides the timetable for opening dockets for the next 4 years of the program, from FY 2011 to FY 2014. EPA updates the registration review schedule at least once every year. The updated schedule and an explanation of the schedule are available on the Agency’s Web site at http://www.epa.gov/oppsrrd1/ registration

_review/schedule.htm.
