I. General Information 

A. Does this action apply to me? 

You may be potentially affected by 

this action if you are an agricultural 

producer, food manufacturer, or 

pesticide manufacturer. The following 

list of North American Industrial 

Classification System (NAICS) codes is 

not intended to be exhaustive, but rather 

provides a guide to help readers 

determine whether this document 

applies to them. Potentially affected 

entities may include: 

• Crop production (NAICS code 111). 

• Animal production (NAICS code 

112). 

• Food manufacturing (NAICS code 

311). 

• Pesticide manufacturing (NAICS 

code 32532). 

B. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark 

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

http://www.epa.gov/dockets/ 

comments.html. 

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 

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 245 / Monday, December 21, 2020 / Proposed Rules 82999 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticides 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

EPA is announcing its receipt of 

several pesticide petitions filed under 

section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, 

and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 

346a, requesting the establishment or 

modification of regulations in 40 CFR 

part 180 for residues of pesticide 

chemicals in or on various food 

commodities. The Agency is taking 

public comment on the requests before 

responding to the petitioners. EPA is not 

proposing any particular action at this 

time. EPA has determined that the 

pesticide petitions described in this 

document contain data or information 

prescribed in FFDCA section 408(d)(2), 

21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(2); however, EPA has 

not fully evaluated the sufficiency of the 

submitted data at this time or whether 

the data support granting of the 

pesticide petitions. After considering 

the public comments, EPA intends to 

evaluate whether and what action may 

be warranted. Additional data may be 

needed before EPA can make a final 

determination on this pesticide 

petitions. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a 

summary of each of the petitions that 

are the subject of this document, 

prepared by the petitioner, is included 

in a docket EPA has created for this 

rulemaking. The docket for these 

petitions is available at http://

www.regulations.gov. 

As specified in FFDCA section 

408(d)(3), 21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3), EPA is 

publishing notice of the petitions so that 

the public has an opportunity to 

comment on these requests for the 

establishment or modification of 

regulations for residues of pesticides in 

or on food commodities. Further 

information on the petitions may be 

obtained through the petition 

summaries referenced in this unit.

an exemption from the requirement of a 

tolerance in 40 CFR part 180.910 for 

residues of Zinc Stearate (CAS Reg No. 

557–05–1) when used as a pesticide 

inert ingredient in pesticide 

formulations applied pre- and postharvest and not to exceed 6% by weight 

of the formulation. The petitioner 

believes no analytical method is needed 

because it is not required for an 

exemption from the requirement of a 

tolerance. Contact: RD. 

2. PP IN–11384. (EPA–HQ–OPP– 

2020–0450) Spring Regulatory Sciences,

No. 84632–65–5), when used as an inert 

ingredient in pesticide formulations 

under 40 CFR 180.910. The petitioner 

believes no analytical method is needed 

because it is not required for an 

exemption from the requirement of a 

tolerance. Contact: RD. 

C. New Tolerance Exemptions From 

Non-Inerts (Except PIPS) 

PP 9F8816. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2020–

exemption from the requirement of a 

tolerance in 40 CFR part 180 for 

residues of the bactericide and fungicide 

Bacillus subtilis strain AFS032321 in or 

on all food commodities. The petitioner 

believes no analytical method is needed 

because it expects that, when Bacillus 

subtilis strain AFS032321 is used as 

proposed, residues that are of 

toxicological concern would not result. 

Contact: BPPD. 

D. New Tolerances for Non-Inerts 

1. PP 9E8820. (EPA–HQ–OPP–2020– 

0424). Nichino America, Inc., 4550

GTL requests reconsideration of a 

single sentence from the 2020 ICS 

Report and Order on Remand stating 

that ‘‘the jurisdictional nature of a call 

depends on the physical location of the 

endpoints of the call and not on 

whether the area code or NXX prefix of 

the telephone number associated with 

the account, are associated with a 

particular state.’’ 1 In order to avoid a 

potential overlap between a previouslyannounced reply comment date in this 

docket, 85 FR 67480, and the due date 

for oppositions to GTL’s Petition; to 

provide more certainty with regard to 

the commencement of the pleading 

cycle for this Petition; and in the 

interest of allowing all stakeholders the 

opportunity to fully and meaningfully 

respond to the Petition, the Bureau finds 

good cause pursuant to 47 CFR 1.3 to 

waive, on its own motion, if necessary, 

the deadline for oppositions as set forth 

in 47 CFR 1.429(f) to permit a longer 

pleading cycle should Federal Register 

publication of a notice of the filing of 

the Petition occur on or before 

December 24, 2020. Should Federal 

Register Publication of the notice of the 

Petition occur after Thursday, December 

24, 2020, the Bureau will extend the 

deadline for oppositions and replies to 

provide a full 15/10 day opposition 

period, respectively, as required under 

the Commission’s rules. 

The Commission will not send a 

Congressional Review Act (CRA) 

submission to Congress or the 

Government Accountability Office 

pursuant to the CRA, 5 U.S.C. 801 

because no rules are being adopted by 

the Commission.
