Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 226 / Wednesday, November 24, 2004 / Notices 68357

All registrants of the pesticide 

product containing the active ingredient 

listed in this document have been sent 

the appropriate RED, and must respond 

to labeling requirements and productspecific data requirements (if 

applicable) within 8 months of receipt. 

Products also containing other pesticide 

active ingredients will not be 

reregistered until those other active 

ingredients are determined to be eligible 

for reregistration.

The reregistration program is being 

conducted under Congressionally 

mandated time frames, and EPA 

recognizes both the need to make timely 

reregistration decisions and to involve 

the public. Therefore, EPA is issuing the 

RED as a final document with a 60–day 

comment period. Although the 60–day 

public comment period does not affect 

the registrant’s response due date, it is 

intended to provide an opportunity for 

public input and a mechanism for 

initiating any necessary amendments to 

the RED. If any comment significantly 

affects a RED, EPA will amend the RED 

by publishing the amendment in the 

Federal Register.

B. What is the Agency’s Authority for 

Taking this Action?

The legal authority for the RED falls 

under FIFRA, as amended in 1988 and 

1996. Section 4(g)(2)(A) of FIFRA 

directs that, after submission of all data 

concerning a pesticide active ingredient, 

‘‘the Administrator shall determine 

whether pesticides containing such 

active ingredient are eligible for 

reregistration,’’ before calling in 

product-specific data on individual enduse products, and either reregistering 

products or taking ‘‘other appropriate 

regulatory action.’’

Captan; Cancer Reclassification; 

Amendment of ReregistrationEligibility 

Decision; Notice of Availability

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

modification of certain provisions of the 

1999 Reregistration Eligibility Decision 

(RED) for the pesticide captan, and 

opens a public comment period on these 

changes. EPA is amending the captan 

RED in response to public comments 

received. EPA has made certain 

modifications to the captan RED which 

are discussed in the ‘‘Amendment to the 

1999 Captan RED’’ document, which is 

available in the captan docket and edocket. This notice also opens the 

public comment period announcing the 

results of the Agency’s reevaluation of 

captan’s cancer classification. The 

Captan Task Force voluntarily pursued 

a process to reclassify captan’s initial 

cancer classification, as a probable 

human carcinogen, by supporting a 

third-party review of data to support a 

mode of action determination for 

captan. Based on the third-party review 

and subsequent Agency review, EPA has 

determined that captan acts through a 

non-genotoxic threshold mode of action. 

Although the Agency is issuing a single 

FR to announce both the amendment to 

the RED and the reevaluation of the 

cancer classification, the change in 

cancer classification does not change 

the risk management conclusions nor 

amend the 1999 Captan RED, and is not 

considered a reregistration action.

DATES: Comments, identified by docket 

identification (ID) number OPP–2004–

0296, must be received on or before 

January 24, 2005.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be 

submitted electronically, by mail, or

II. Background

A. What Action is the Agency Taking?

The Agency is issuing an 

‘‘Amendment to the 1999 Captan RED’’

document for public comment. In 

addition, this notice announces the 

results of the Agency’s reevaluation of 

captan’s cancer classification. This 

reevaluation does not change the 

conclusions of the RED and does not 

amend the Captan RED.

i. Amendment to the 1999 Captan 

RED. In 1999, EPA issued a RED for 

captan under section 4(g)(2)(A) of 

FIFRA. EPA has modified certain captan 

label requirements including: Double 

notification for all agricultural uses of 

captan; verbal notification of eye 

concerns associated with captan for 7 

days following application; wettable 

powders applied aerially to be 

formulated in water soluble packages; 

reductions in the dichondra ornamental 

grass use rate; establishing a Re-Entry 

Interval for ornamentals, blackberries, 

blueberries, dewberries, raspberries, and 

grapes of 48 hours; removing the dust/

mist respirator requirement for handling 

bags of treated seed.

ii. Cancer reclassification. When the 

RED was issued, captan retained its 

previous classification as a B2 chemical 

carcinogen (probable human 

carcinogen). Cancer risk from captan 

was quantified using the Agency’s 

default approach described in the 

Agency’s 1986 Cancer Risk Assessment 

Guidelines. When much uncertainty 

exists regarding the mode of 

carcinogenic action, EPA assumes the 

tumor dose response from a cancer 

study is linear. In the absence of 

adequate information to the contrary, 

the linearized multistage procedure is 

applied to the tumor response data to 

calculate the cancer unit risk (Q1*), 

which is the upper confidence limit 

(95th percentile) of the dose response 

curve. This linear low dose approach 

used to estimate cancer risk is believed 

to be conservative.

Although the Captan Task Force 

(CTF) had submitted several mechanism 

studies for captan, the Agency 

determined that they did not contribute 

sufficient additional information to the 

mode of action nor have a significant 

bearing on the cancer risk assessment. 

In the RED, the Agency reaffirmed its 

decision that the linear low dose 

extrapolation model should continue to 

be used for risk assessment and 

determined that a reconsideration for 

captan according to the 1996 Draft 

Cancer Risk Assessment guidelines was 

not required.

In February of 2000, the CTF 

petitioned the Agency to reevaluate the 

cancer risk assessment for captan using 

a threshold approach rather than the 

traditional linear low dose (Q1*) 

approach. They submitted additional 

data, including data on thiophosgene, 

and stated that they strongly believed 

that captan should be regulated as a 

threshold carcinogen. Their comments 

were bolstered by portions of the RED, 

which stated that ‘‘the carcinogenic 

process is thought to be triggered by the 

highly reactive but short-lived 

metabolite thiophosgene.’’

When the Agency reviewed this 

petition and additional data, it 

concluded that the information might be 

sufficient to warrant a cancer 

reclassification. However, the Agency 

also concluded that the resources 

required to conduct a thorough 

reclassification effort would not be 

available in the short-term. Since the 

reclassification would not change the 

conclusions of the RED, namely that the 

risk of cancer from exposure to captan 

was below the Agency’s level of 

concern, the Agency determined that 

reevaluating captan’s cancer 

classification was not a priority action at 

that time and was not necessary to 

reregister end-use products containing 

captan.

In 2001, based on a request from the 

CTF, EPA agreed to consider a reevaluation of captan’s cancer 

classification by a third party. It was 

envisioned that an organization, 

separate from the CTF, would manage 

an expert scientific peer review of the 

cancer information, and generate the 

supporting documentation and 

proposed conclusion from the third 

party. The Agency would then review 

the work of the third party and make its 

own decision regarding captan’s cancer 

reclassification. The Agency was 

available for consultation, but did not 

manage or approve any portion of these 

proceedings. Records of interactions 

between the Agency and the CTF 

regarding this process are available in 

the public docket.

The CTF chose Toxicology Excellence 

for Risk Assessment (TERA) to recruit 

and manage the process of reviewing the 

captan cancer mode of action data. On 

September 3 and 4, 2003, a third party 

of outside experts in various fields and 

affiliations reviewed the captan cancer 

mode of action data. This Peer Review 

Panel concluded that captan acted 

through a non-genotoxic threshold 

mode of action.

In 2004, the CTF submitted the results 

of the Peer Review Panel meeting to the 

EPA for review. EPA reviewed this 

information and determined that the 

weight of evidence indicates that 

captan’s carcinogenicity is limited to a 

single tumor type (adenomas and 

adenocarcinomas in the small intestine, 

primarily the proximal portion of the 

duodenum) in both sexes of a single 

species (mouse). EPA agreed that the 

results of the rat bioassays provide no 

evidence that captan is associated with 

kidney tumors in male rats or uterine 

tumors in female rats, and, therefore, 

these tumors do not add to the weightof-evidence considerations for the 

carcinogenicity of captan.

The Agency accepts the proposed 

mode of action as set forth by the CTF 

that suggests that ‘‘captan induces 

adenomas and adenocarcinomas in the 

duodenum of the mouse by a nongenotoxic mode of action involving 

cytotoxicity and regenerative cell 

hyperplasia that exhibits a clear dose 

threshold. These responses are 

reversible following cessation of captan 

exposure. There is a strong causal 

association (dose-response, temporality) 

indicating that tumor formation is 

secondary to cytotoxicity and 

hyperplasia and that the latter is a key 

event in the sequential cascade of events 

leading to cancer.’’

In September 2004, the Agency, in 

accordance with the EPA 1999 Proposed 

Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk 

Assessment, classified captan as ‘‘not 

likely to be a human carcinogen at dose 

levels that do not cause cytotoxicity and 

regenerative cell hyperplasia’’ and 

‘‘likely to be carcinogenic to humans 

following prolonged, high-level 

exposures causing cytotoxicity and 

regenerative cell hyperplasia.’’

The new cancer classification 

considers captan to be a potential 

carcinogen at prolonged high doses that 

cause cytotoxicity and regenerative cell 

hyperplasia. These high doses of captan 

are many orders of magnitude above 

those likely to be consumed in the diet, 

or encountered by individuals in 

occupational or residential settings.

68360 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 226 / Wednesday, November 24, 2004 / Notices 

Therefore, captan is not likely to be a 

human carcinogen nor pose cancer risks 

of concern when used in accordance 

with approved product labels.

For further information and 

discussion about the cancer 

reclassification see the September 22, 

2004 report, ‘‘CAPTAN: Fourth Report 

of the Cancer Assessment Review 

Committee.’’ In addition, the ‘‘Reader’s 

Guide to the Captan E-Docket’’ provides 

an organized list to help readers 

navigate the documents in the docket, 

including scientific supporting 

documents and registrant and thirdparty submissions.

All comments should be submitted 

using the methods in Unit I. of the 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION, and must 

be received by EPA on or before the 

closing date. Comments and proposals 

will become part of the Agency Docket 

for captan. Comments received after the 

close of the comment period will be 

marked ‘‘late.’’ EPA is not required to 

consider these late comments. EPA will 

carefully consider all comments 

received by the closing date and will 

provide a Response to Comments 

Memorandum in the Docket and 

electronic EDOCKET. If any comment 

significantly affects the document, EPA 

also will publish an amendment to the 

RED in the Federal Register. In the 

absence of substantive comments 

requiring changes, the captan RED will 

be implemented as it is now presented.

B. What is the Agency’s Authority for 

Taking this Action?

Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA, as amended, 

directs that, after submission of all data 

concerning a pesticide active ingredient, 

‘‘the Administrator shall determine 

whether pesticides containing such 

active ingredient are eligible for 

reregistration,’’ before calling in product 

specific data on individual end-use 

products and either reregistering 

products or taking other ‘‘appropriate 

regulatory action.’’

Section 408(q) of the Federal Food, 

Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 

U.S.C. 346a(q), requires EPA to review 

tolerances and exemptions for pesticide 

residues in effect as of August 2, 1996, 

to determine whether the tolerance or 

exemption meets the requirements of 

section 408(b)(2) or (c)(2) of FFDCA. 

This review is to be completed by 

August 3, 2006.
