### Cover Letter
Dear PMN Staff, 

# C NANN a On behalf of K+S North America, Iam submitting a Pre-Manufacture Notice for the substance 3,4-dimethyl-1 Hpyrazole (DMP) (Submission report number 

## DMP 

## i0qM60D7,7 This material will be imported to the US where itwill be further reacted to produce 3,4-dimethyl-1 H-pyrazole phosphate (DMPP). A PMN for the phosphate will also be submitted. Then the phosphate will be blended into a fertilizerformulation. The US site for these processes has not yet been determined. Therefore, we are unable to provide details about the potential releases of this material. We will provide this information to the EPA as soon as possible after the site has been determined. The toxicological and ecological data shown on the MSDS for DMP isbased on the testing ofthe phosphate. The complete testing reports will be included with the PMN for DMPP. Study reports on toxicologicas and ecological data for 3,4-dimethyl-1 H-pyrazole (DMP) are not available. Please refer to the respective study reports woth 3,4- dimethyl-1H-pyrazole phosphate (DMPP, submission report No. DMPP_1 01008686317360) DMPP is DMP in presence of phosphoric acid (phosphoric acid (65%)is aaded in3tol 0fold excess). DMP is imported informulation with phosphoric acid only (liquid formulation containing 72% DMP, 20% water and 8%phosphoric acid). Thus, reports for DMPP data are considered applicable for DMP. The excess phosphoric acid was not considered to significantly contribute tothe resulting toxicological and ecological data. Pleas let me know ifyou have any questions or comments regarding this submission. Submitter contact address is: K+S North America President Mr Jan Doege 201 East 42nd Street New York, NY 10605 Tel. 212-593-5907 Jan.doege@ks-northamerica.com

# OPTIONAL POLLUTION PREVENTION INFORMATION To claim information inthefollowing section as confidential, bracket (eg.

### {)) the specific information that you claim as confidential. Inthis section you may provide information not reported elsewhere inthis form regarding your efforts to reduce or minimize potential risks associated with activities surrounding manufacturing, processing, use and disposal ofthe PMVN substance. Please include new information pertinent to pollution prevention, including source reduction, recycling activities and safer processes or products available due to the new chemical substance. Source reduction includes the reduction inthe amount ortoxicity of chemical wastes bytechnological modification, process and procedure modification, product reformulation, and/or raw materials substitution. Recycling refers to the reclamation of useful chemical components from wastes that would otherwise be treated or released as air emissions or water discharges, or land disposal. Quantitative orqualitative descriptions of pollution prevention, source reduction and recycling should emphasize potential risk reduction inaddition to compliance with existing regulatory requirements. The EPA isinterested inthe information to assess overall net reductions intoxicity or environmental releases and exposures, notthe shifting of risksto other media (e.g., air to water) or nonenvironmental areas (e.g., occupational or consumer exposure). To the extent known, information about the technology being replaced will assist EPA inits relative risk determination. Inaddition, information on the relative cost or performance characteristics of the PMN substance to potential altemnatives may be provided. Describe the expected net benefits, such as

(1)an overall reduction inriskto human health or the environment; (2)a reduction inthe generation ofwaste materials through recycling, source reduction or other means; (3)a reduction inthe use of hazardous starting materials, reagents, orfeedstocks; (4)a reduction inpotential toxicity, human exposure and/or environmental release; or (5)

the extent to which the new chemical substance may be asubstitute for an existing substance that poses a greater overall risk to human

health orthe environment. Information provided inthis section will be taken Into consideration during the review of this substance. See PMN Instructions Manual and Pollution Prevention Guidance manual for guidance and examples. The PMVN substance will be completely reacted inaclosed system. There will be essentially no release to the environment.
