After reviewing comments received during the public comment period, EPA may issue revised risk assessments, explain any changes to the draft risk assessments, and respond to comments, and may request public input on risk mitigation before completing a proposed registration review decision for the identified pesticides.

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.

**Stakeholder Workshop To Discuss Interim Scientific Methods Used in**  **Draft Biological Evaluations; Notice of Public Meeting** 

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  EPA’s Office of Pesticide Programs, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) (collectively, the Services), and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) are holding a 2- day workshop to discuss potential refinements to the interim scientific methods used in the first nationwide draft biological evaluations for chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and malathion, released for public comment on April 11, 2016. These interim scientific methods were developed by EPA and the Services, with collaboration from USDA on crop production, pesticide use, and the spatial footprint of agricultural use patterns, in response to the 2013 National Academy of Sciences (NAS) report entitled, ‘‘Assessing Risks to Endangered and Threatened Species from Pesticides.’’ This workshop builds upon public meetings held in November 2013, April and October 2014, and April 2015, and provides a forum for stakeholders to offer scientific and technical feedback on three topics of interest: (1) Improving aquatic modeling, (2) refinements to Step 1 (making ‘‘may affect’’ or ‘‘no effect’’ determinations) and Step 2 (making ‘‘likely to adversely affect’’ or ‘‘not likely to adversely affect’’ determinations), and (3) the weight of evidence approach. The workshop is notdesigned, or intended, to be a decisionmaking forum; consensus will not be sought, or developed at the meeting. This meeting is intended to further the agencies’ goal of developing a sustainable methodology and process as part of the consultation process for assessing pesticide impacts on threatened and endangered (listed) species that is efficient, inclusive, and transparent.

**DATES :**  The meeting will be held on June 29, 2016 from 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and June 30, 2016 from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. There will be a teleconference line and webinar available for those interested in calling in for introductory and concluding plenary sessions at the beginning and the end of the workshop. Attendees must register by June 22, 2016 to attend either in person or via teleconference/webinar.

To request accommodation of a disability, please contact the person(s) listed under **FOR FURTHER INFORMATON**
**CONTACT** , preferably at least 10 days prior to the meeting, to give EPA and the Services as much time as possible to process your request.

II. Background

This workshop is an opportunity for stakeholders and agencies to continue their dialogue on the technical aspects of implementing the NAS recommendations in the context of ongoing interagency efforts to develop a method for assessing risks to endangered species. This workshop builds upon implementation of the enhanced stakeholder engagement process that was finalized in March 2013, and public meetings held in November 2013, April and October 2014, and April 2015. The workshop is not designed, or intended to be a decision-making forum; consensus will not be sought, or developed at the meeting. Stakeholders are invited to provide feedback and suggest ideas for further refinement in three topic areas related to the draft biological evaluations for the three pilot chemicals (chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and malathion): (1) Improving aquatic exposure modeling, (2) refinements to the interim method for Step 1 (making ‘‘may affect’’ or ‘‘no effect’’ determinations) and Step 2 (making ‘‘likely to adversely affect’’ or ‘‘not likely to adversely affect’’ determinations), and (3) the approach to the weight of evidence.

The structure of this workshop differs from the structure of previous workshops. Only the opening and concluding plenary sessions of the workshop will be open to the general public. The rest of the workshop is divided into 6 breakout groups. Each breakout group will discuss technical questions related to the three main topics of interest: (1) Improving aquatic modeling, (2) refinements to Step 1 and Step 2, and (3) the approach to the weight of evidence. Because of the highly technical nature of these topics, the breakout groups will be by invitation only during initial registration. Invitees with specialized expertise in the three topic areas will be identified by the workshop Steering Committee composed of members from EPA, FWS, NMFS, and representatives from industry, grower groups, and environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs). After initial registration, each breakout group will beopen to the public on a first-come-firstserved basis until maximum capacity is reached. Maximum capacity is 20 people per breakout group.

The agencies’ interim approach document entitled, ‘‘Interagency Approach for Implementation of the National Academy of Sciences Report’’, dated November 13, 2013, and the presentation materials from the November 2013 stakeholder workshop are available at: http://www.epa.gov/ oppfead1/endanger/2013/nas.html. Presentations supporting the previous stakeholder workshops held in April and October 2014 are available in the docket EPA–HQ–OPP–2014–0233. Presentations supporting the stakeholder workshop in April 2015 and the draft biological evaluations for chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and malathion are available at: https://www.epa.gov/endangered-species/implementing-nasreport-recommendations-ecologicalrisk-assessment-endangered-and.

Representatives from the federal agencies will participate in the breakout groups and plenary sessions to guide the discussion and answer clarifying questions regarding the need for refinement of the current interim methods. The agencies see this workshop as an integral component of the stakeholder engagement process developed for pesticide consultations that contributes to the agencies’ commitment to adapt and refine the interim approaches as we progress through the initial pesticide consultations for chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and malathion.
