Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c), this notice announces the availability of EPA’s final registration review decisions for the pesticides in the table below— propionic acid and salts, case 4078, urea sulfate, case no. 7213, methidathion, case no. 0034, and methyl parathion, case no. 0153. The active ingredient propionic acid is a fungicide and bactericide that is used to control fungi and bacteria in stored hay and grains, inhibit bacterial growth in drinking water for livestock and poultry, control mold and fungi in poultry litter and animal feed, and sanitize pre-cleaned food contact surfaces. Propionic acid is also used as an inert ingredient in pesticide formulations. Propionic acid and its salts, sodium and calcium propionates, are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for use in food. Propionic acid and salts, are exempt from the requirement of a tolerance. Urea sulfate is used as a desiccant on cotton. No food crop uses remain and all tolerances for urea sulfate have beendeleted. Methidathion is a nonsystemic, organophosphate (OP) used as an insecticide/acaricide on a wide variety of terrestrial food and feed crops and terrestrial non-food crops. Methyl parathion is a restricted use OP insecticide and acaricide registered for use on a variety of food and feed crops, with the majority of use occurring on cotton, corn, and rice.
