SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Information About IRIS 

EPA’s IRIS is a human health 

assessment program that evaluates 

quantitative and qualitative risk 

information on effects that may result 

from exposure to chemical substances 

found in the environment. Through the 

IRIS Program, EPA provides the highest 

quality science-based human health 

assessments to support the Agency’s 

regulatory activities. The IRIS database 

contains information for more than 540 

chemical substances that can be used to 

support the first two steps (hazard 

identification and dose-response 

evaluation) of the risk assessment 

process. When supported by available 

data, IRIS provides oral reference doses 

(RfDs) and inhalation reference 

concentrations (RfCs) for chronic 

noncancer health effects as well as 

assessments of potential carcinogenic 

effects resulting from chronic exposure. 

Combined with specific exposure 

information, government and private 

entities use IRIS to help characterize 

public health risks of chemical 

substances in a site-specific situation 

and thereby support risk management 

decisions designed to protect public 

health.

Endosulfan: Final Product Cancellation 

Order 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces EPA’s 

order for the cancellations, voluntarily 

requested by the registrants and 

accepted by the Agency of pesticide 

products containing endosulfan, 

pursuant to section 6(f)(1) of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA), as amended. This 

cancellation order follows an August 18, 

2010, Federal Register Notice of Receipt 

of Requests from the endosulfan 

registrants to voluntarily cancel their 

product registrations. In the August 18, 

2010, notice, EPA indicated that it 


emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES
69066 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 217 / Wednesday, November 10, 2010 / Notices 

would grant the request and issue a 

cancellation order unless the Agency 

received substantive comments within 

the 30-day comment period that would 

merit its further review of these 

requests, or unless the registrants 

withdrew their requests within this 

period. The Agency received three 

comments on the notice in support of 

the cancellations of all endosulfan 

products, which included signatures 

from over 53,000 individuals. Upon 

review of these comments, EPA 

determined that the Agency should, 

nonetheless, grant the registrants’ 

cancellation requests. The registrants 

did not withdraw their requests. 

Accordingly, EPA hereby issues in this 

notice a cancellation order granting the 

requested cancellations. Any FIFRA 

section 3 or 24(c) registration, 

distribution, sale, or use of endosulfan 

products subject to this cancellation 

order is permitted only in accordance 

with the terms of this order. 

DATES: The use deletions and 

cancellations in this order are effective 

as provided in Unit IV.

III. Summary of Public Comments 

Received and Agency Response to 

Comments 

The Agency received three comments 

on the notice, published on August 18, 

2010, that announced receipt of the 

requests for voluntary cancellation and 

opened a 30-day public comment period 

that ended on September 17, 2010. 

These comments were received from 

Pesticide Action Network North 

America (PANNA) and over 3,000 

supporters, Defenders of Wildlife and 

over 50,000 supporters, and a private 

citizen. All comments support 

cancellation of all endosulfan pesticide 

products in the United States. The 

comments from PANNA, Defenders of 

Wildlife, and by extension the 

supporters of those organizations, 

request that EPA shorten the phase-out 

schedule for endosulfan, referring in 

general terms to a concern over 

continued risks to farmworkers, wildlife 

and the environment, and indigenous 


emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 217 / Wednesday, November 10, 2010 / Notices 69067 

peoples in the Arctic, as well as each 

organization’s assertion that alternatives 

to endosulfan are available. 

The Agency appreciates the 

comments submitted by the public. 

Pursuant to the cancellation request 

made as part of the endosulfan 

Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) 

with endosulfan registrants, most 

currently approved endosulfan crop 

uses will end in 2 years, including over 

30 crop uses plus use on ornamental 

trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants. 

The remaining 12 crop uses will end 

over the following 4 years. Of these 

remaining uses, the last four endosulfan 

uses will end on July 31, 2016. 

EPA expects growers currently using 

endosulfan to successfully transition to 

lower risk pest control strategies. The 

endosulfan phase-out schedule helps 

facilitate this transition by providing 

growers time to research and adopt 

lower risk alternatives. Recognizing that 

endosulfan affords benefits in producing 

certain individual crops, the phase-out 

schedule allows a longer phase-out 

period where EPA determined there are 

benefits of endosulfan use and/or fewer 

available alternatives to endosulfan. 

With regard to the commenters’ 

concern about farmworker and 

environmental risks, EPA is requiring 

new mitigation measures for many crops 

during the endosulfan phase-out period 

in addition to mitigation requirements 

placed on endosulfan labels in previous 

years. Although these additional 

mitigation measures are designed to 

reduce worker risks, restricting and 

phasing out all uses of endosulfan will 

also address risks to wildlife and the 

environment. 

Additional mitigation required during 

the phase-out varies by crop and 

includes measures such as: 

• Canceling aerial use and specifying 

other application methods. 

• Extending Restricted Entry Intervals 

(REIs). 

• Extending Pre-harvest Intervals 

(PHIs). 

• Reducing maximum single and/or 

seasonal application rates. 

Detailed information about the 

additional mitigation measures is 

provided in the Appendices to the 

endosulfan MOA, which can be found at 

docket number EPA–HQ–OPP–2002– 

0262–0181 on http:// 

www.regulations.gov. 

With regard to the commenters’ 

concern for endosulfan contamination 

of subsistence foods, the Agency’s 

human health risk assessment has 

determined that there are no dietary 

risks of concern resulting from 

endosulfan use for all populations 

including indigenous people in the 

Arctic. 

Because of the extensive additional 

mitigation required for many endosulfan 

uses for the duration of the phase-out 

period, in combination with the benefits 

afforded by and/or limited alternatives 

for certain uses of endosulfan, the 

Agency has decided not to alter the 

phase-out schedule requested by the 

endosulfan registrants and detailed in 

the endosulfan MOA. 

IV. Cancellation Order 

Pursuant to FIFRA section 6(f), EPA 

hereby approves the requested 

cancellations of registrations identified 

in Table 1 of Unit II. and hereby orders 

that: 

• All endosulfan product 

registrations, identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. are canceled for uses listed in 

List 1 of Unit VI. as of November 10, 

2010. 

• All endosulfan product 

registrations, identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. are canceled for uses listed in 

List 2 of Unit VI. as of March 31, 2012. 

• All endosulfan product 

registrations, identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. are canceled for uses listed in 

List 3 of Unit VI. as of March 31, 2013. 

• All endosulfan product 

registrations, identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. are canceled for uses listed in 

List 4 of Unit VI. as of September 1, 

2014. 

• All endosulfan product 

registrations, identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. are canceled for uses listed in 

List 5 of Unit VI. as of March 31, 2015. 

• All endosulfan product 

registrations, identified in Table 1 of 

Unit II. are canceled for uses listed in 

List 6 of Unit VI. as of March 31, 2016. 

EPA further orders that effective July 31, 

2016, all section 3 registrations of 

endosulfan are canceled. The effective 

date of canceled section 3 registrations 

will therefore correspond with end use 

dates established in this order. As a 

matter of clarification, all FIFRA 24(c) 

Special Local Need registrations may 

remain in effect until their respective 

expiration dates, which will correspond 

with end use dates established in this 

order. 

V. What is the agency’s authority for 

taking this action? 

Section 6(f)(1) of FIFRA provides that 

a registrant of a pesticide product may 

at any time request that any of its 

pesticide registrations be canceled or 

amended to terminate one or more uses. 

FIFRA further provides that, before 

acting on the request, EPA must publish 

a notice of receipt of any such request 

in the Federal Register. Thereafter, 

following the public comment period, 

the Administrator may approve such a 

request. 

VI. Provisions for Disposition of 

Existing Stocks 

Existing stocks are those stocks of 

registered pesticide products that are 

currently in the United States and that 

were packaged, labeled, and released for 

shipment prior to the effective date of 

the cancellation action. In any order 

issued in response to these requests for 

amendments to terminate uses, the 

Agency proposes to include the 

following provisions for the treatment of 

any existing stocks of the products 

identified or referenced in Table 1. 

These provisions are consistent with the 

requests for use deletions and requests 

for voluntary cancellations outlined in 

Unit II. of this notice:

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The EPA Science Advisory 

Board (SAB) Staff Office announces a 

public meeting of the SAB Lead Review 

Panel to peer review two draft EPA 

documents entitled Approach for 

Developing Lead Dust Hazard 

Standards for Residences and Approach 

for Developing Lead Dust Hazard 

Standards for Public and Commercial 

Buildings. 

DATES: There will be a public meeting 

held on December 6, 2010 from 9 a.m. 

to 5 p.m. (Eastern Time) and December 

7, 2010 from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any 

member of the public wishing to obtain 

information concerning the public 

meeting may contact Mr. Aaron Yeow, 

Designated Federal Officer (DFO), EPA 

Science Advisory Board Staff Office 

(1400R), U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, 

NW., Washington, DC 20460; by 

telephone/voice mail at (202) 564–2050 

or at yeow.aaron@epa.gov. General 

information about the SAB, as well as 

any updates concerning the meeting 

announced in this notice, may be found 

on the EPA Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/sab. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), 5 U.S.C., App. 2, notice is 

hereby given that the SAB Lead Review 

Panel will hold a public face-to-face 

meeting to peer review two draft EPA 

documents entitled Approach for 

Developing Lead Dust Hazard 

Standards for Residences and Approach 

for Developing Lead Dust Hazard 

Standards for Public and Commercial 

Buildings. The SAB was established 

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 4365 to provide 

independent scientific and technical 

advice to the Administrator on the 

technical basis for Agency positions and 

regulations. The SAB is a Federal 

Advisory Committee chartered under 

FACA. The SAB will comply with the 

provisions of FACA and all appropriate 

SAB Staff Office procedural policies. 

Background: Human exposure to lead 

may cause a variety of adverse health 

effects, particularly in children. EPA’s 

Office of Pollution Prevention and 

Toxics (OPPT) regulates toxic 

substances, such as lead, through the 

Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). 

In 2001, EPA established standards for 

lead-based paint hazards, which include 

lead in residential dust. OPPT is 

considering possible revision of the 

residential lead-based paint dust hazard 

standards and the development of leadbased paint dust hazard standards for 

public and commercial buildings. As 

part of this effort, OPPT has developed 

two draft documents, Approach for 

Developing Lead Dust Standards for 

Residences and Approach for 

Developing Lead Dust Standards for 

Public and Commercial Buildings. OPPT 

sought consultative advice from the 

SAB Lead Review Panel on early drafts 

of the documents on July 6–7, 2010 

[Federal Register Notice dated June 3, 

2010 (75 FR 31433–31434)]. EPA has 

considered the advice provided by 

individual members of the SAB Lead 

Review Panel in revising the two 

documents that will be peer reviewed 

by the SAB Lead Review Panel on 

December 6–7, 2010. For this peer 

review, EPA has requested that the SAB 

panel provide recommendations on: The 

technical approaches for developing the 

hazard standards, empirical blood lead 

modeling, analysis of variability and 

uncertainty, and biokinetic blood lead 

modeling. 

Availability of Meeting Materials: 

Agendas and materials in support of this 

meeting will be placed on the EPA Web 

site at http://www.epa.gov/sab in 

advance of the meeting. For technical 

questions and information concerning 

EPA’s documents please contact Dr. 

Jennifer Seed at (202) 564–7634, or 

seed.jennifer@epa.gov. 

Procedures for Providing Public Input: 

Public comment for consideration by 

EPA’s federal advisory committees and 

panels has a different purpose from 

public comment provided to EPA 

program offices. Therefore, the process 

for submitting comments to a federal 

advisory committee is different from the 

process used to submit comments to an 

EPA program office. 

Federal advisory committees and 

panels, including scientific advisory 

committees, provide independent 

advice to EPA. Members of the public 

can submit comments for a federal 

advisory committee to consider as it 

develops advice for EPA. They should 

send their comments directly to the 

Designated Federal Officer for the 

relevant advisory committee. Oral 

Statements: In general, individuals or 

groups requesting an oral presentation 

at a public face-to-face meeting will be 

limited to five minutes, with no more 

than a total of one hour for all speakers. 

Each person making an oral statement 

should consider providing written 

comments as well as their oral statement 

so that the points presented orally can 

be expanded upon in writing. Interested 

parties should contact Mr. Aaron Yeow, 

DFO, in writing (preferably via e-mail) 

at the contact information noted above 

by November 29, 2010 for the face-toface meeting, to be placed on the list of 

public speakers. Written Statements: 

Written statements should be supplied 

to the DFO via e-mail at the contact 

information noted above by November 

29, 2010 for the face-to-face meeting so 

that the information may be made 

available to the Panel members for their 

consideration. Written statements 

should be supplied in one of the 

following electronic formats: Adobe 

Acrobat PDF, MS Word, MS 

PowerPoint, or Rich Text files in IBM– 

PC/Windows 98/2000/XP format. 

Submitters are requested to provide 

versions of signed documents, 

submitted with and without signatures, 

because the SAB Staff Office does not 

publish documents with signatures on 

its Web sites. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Mr. Aaron 

Yeow at (202) 564–2050 or yeow.aaron

@epa.gov. To request accommodation of 

a disability, please contact Mr. Yeow 

preferably at least ten days prior to each 

meeting to give EPA as much time as 

possible to process your request. 

Dated: November 4, 2010. 

Anthony F. Maciorowski, 

Deputy Director, EPA Science Advisory Staff 

Office.
