pome, and stone fruits completed July 

25, 2012, and an addendum completed 

on January 24, 2013, that addresses 

other scenarios not covered in the July 

25, 2012 new use assessment. The 

Agency has also conducted an 

ecological risk assessment, which 

includes a screening-level listed species 

assessment. EPA acknowledges that 

further refinements to the listed species 

assessment will be completed in future 

revisions and requests public comment 

on specific areas that will reduce the 

uncertainties associated with the 

characterization of risk to listed species 

identified in the current assessment. 

Silica Silicates 

The registration review docket for 

silica silicates (EPA–HQ–OPP–2007– 

1140) opened in a notice published in 

the Federal Register of March 26, 2008 

(73 FR 16011) (FRL–8356–4). Silica 

silicates, silicon dioxide and silica gel, 

are insecticides and acaracides used in 

controlling insects at indoor and 

outdoor sites including a variety of 

crops. Silicon dioxide is diatomaceous 

earth, a naturally-occurring material 

composed of the shells of minute, 

single-celled algae. Silica gel is an 

amorphous form of silicon dioxide. 

Because of their abrasive characteristics, 

both active ingredients affect insects by 

removing the oily protective film 

covering their bodies which normally 

prevents the loss of water, leading to 

death by desiccation. The qualitative 

human health risk assessment 

conducted for the 1991 reregistration 

eligibility decision (RED) is still 

considered to be an adequate analysis of 

potential risks to humans. No new 

human health toxicology or exposure 

data were required or are available for 

silica silicates; therefore, a new human 

health risk assessment was not 

necessary to be completed for 

registration review nor is one being 

made available for comment at this 

time. Further, due to low toxicity, and 

the fact that silica silicates naturally 

occur in the environment, the Agency 

has conducted a qualitative ecological 

risk assessment for non-target terrestrial 

species. EPA acknowledges that further 

refinements to the listed species 

assessment will be completed in future 

revisions and requests public comment 

on specific areas that will reduce the 

uncertainties associated with the 

characterization of risk to listed species 

identified in the current assessment. 

Undecylenic Acid (UDA) 

The registration review docket for 

UDA (EPA–HQ–OPP–2011–0910) 

opened in a notice published in the 

Federal Register of December 21, 2011 

(76 FR 79173) (FRL–9329–7). UDA is 

registered as an insecticide in pet 

shampoos and spray products in 

combination with dioctyl sodium 

sulfosuccinate (DSS). There are no food 

uses and, thus, no tolerances are 

established. UDA is approved by the 

U.S. Food and Drug Administration 

(FDA) as an active ingredient in over the 

counter anti-fungal products, and it is 

also used as a flavoring agent. EPA has 

conducted a qualitative assessment for 

both human health and ecological risks, 

including listed species for UDA. 

1. Other related information. 

Additional information on cyromazine, 

silica silicates, glufosinate ammonium, 

DSS, and UDA is available on the 

chemical pages for these pesticides in 

Chemical Search, http://www.epa.gov/ 

pesticides/chemicalsearch/, and in each 

chemical’s individual docket listed in 

Table in Unit III. Information on the 

Agency’s registration review program 

and its implementing regulation is 

available at http://www.epa.gov/ 

oppsrrd1/registration_review/. 

2. Information submission 

requirements. Anyone may submit data 

or information in response to this 

document. To be considered during a 

pesticide’s registration review, the 

submitted data or information must 

meet the following requirements: 

• To ensure that EPA will consider 

data or information submitted, 

interested persons must submit the data 

or information during the comment 

period. The Agency may, at its 

discretion, consider data or information 

submitted at a later date. 

• The data or information submitted 

must be presented in a legible and 

useable form. For example, an English 

translation must accompany any 

material that is not in English and a 

written transcript must accompany any 

information submitted as an 

audiographic or videographic record. 

Written material may be submitted in 

paper or electronic form. 

• Submitters must clearly identify the 

source of any submitted data or 

information. 

• Submitters may request the Agency 

to reconsider data or information that 

the Agency rejected in a previous 

review. However, submitters must 

explain why they believe the Agency 

should reconsider the data or 

information in the pesticide’s 

registration review. 

As provided in 40 CFR 155.58, the 

registration review docket for each 

pesticide case will remain publicly 

accessible through the duration of the 

registration review process; that is, until 

all actions required in the final decision 

on the registration review case have 

been completed.
