Case Closure for Diclofop-methyl (PCCode: 110902, Case: 2160). Diclofopmethyl is an herbicide which was labeled for use on wheat, barley, and golf course turf. On October 23, 2014, the Agency received a request forvoluntary cancellation of diclofopmethyl from the technical and end-use registrants; Bayer CropScience and Bayer Environmental Science, respectively. EPA subsequently issued a Federal Register notice announcing receipt of the request (FRL–9396–04), and allowed a 30-day period for public comment on the request. No substantive comments were received, and on June 10, 2015, EPA issued the cancellation order for all remaining registrations of products containing diclofop-methyl (FRL–9968–03), which sets out the existing stocks policy for such products. With the cancellation of all remaining diclofop-methyl products, the Agency is announcing the closure of the registration review case for the active ingredient.

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.57, a registration review decision is the Agency’s determination whether a pesticide meets, or does not meet, the standard for registration in FIFRA. EPA has considered the pesticides listed in the table in this unit in light of the FIFRA standard for registration. The
Interim Decision documents for these pesticides in the docket describe the Agency’s rationale for issuing a registration review interim decision for this pesticide.

In addition to an interim registration review decision document, the registration review docket for each of these pesticides may also include other
relevant documents related to the registration review of the case. A proposed interim registration review decision was previously posted to each docket and the public was invited to submit any comments or new information relevant to the proposal.

EPA has addressed the substantive
comments and information received during the 60-day comment period in the discussion for each pesticide listed in this document. During the 60-day comment period, no public comments were received for any of these cases that resulted in changes in the Agency’s
interim decisions.

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c), the registration review case docket for each pesticide discussed in this notice will remain open until all actions required in
the interim decision have been completed. Background on the registration review program is provided at: http:// www2.epa.gov/pesticide-reevaluation.

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 human health impacts or environmental effects from exposure to the pesticides discussed in this document, compared to the general population.

II. Authority

Registration review is EPA’s periodic review of pesticide registrations to ensure that each pesticide continues to satisfy the statutory standard for registration, that is, the pesticide can perform its intended function without
unreasonable adverse effects on human health or the environment. As part of the registration review process, the Agency has completed comprehensive draft human health and ecological risk assessments, including, in some cases, a screening level endangered species assessment, for all uses of these pesticides. After reviewing comments received during the public comment period, EPA may issue revised risk assessments, explain any changes to the draft risk assessments, respond to comments, and request public input on risk mitigation before completing proposed registration review decisions for flufenacet, flurprimidol, propoxur, sodium acifluorfen, and thidiazuron.

EPA is conducting its registration review of the pesticide cases listed in
Table 1 of Unit III. of this notice pursuant to section 3(g) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and the Procedural Regulations for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 155, subpart C. Section 3(g) of FIFRA provides, among other things, that the registrations of pesticides are to be reviewed every 15 years. Under FIFRA, a pesticide product may be registered or remain registered only if it meets the statutory standard for registration given in FIFRA section 3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). When used in accordance with widespread and commonly recognized practice, the pesticide product must perform its
intended function without unreasonable adverse effects on the environment; that is, without any unreasonable risk to man or the environment, or human dietary risks of concern from residues that result from the use of a pesticide in
or on food.

III. Registration Reviews

As directed by FIFRA section 3(g), EPA is reviewing the pesticide registrations for the pesticides listed in
Table 1 of this Unit to ensure that each pesticide on the list continues to satisfy the FIFRA standard for registration— that is, that these pesticides can still be
used without unreasonable adverse
effects on human health or the

environment.

Flufenacet. Draft Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessments (EPA–HQ–OPP–2010–0863). Flufenacet is a preemergent, anilide herbicide registered for use on wheat, perennial grasses grown for seed, corn for silage, field and sweet corn, soybeans, and triticale. There are no registered residential uses of flufenacet. EPA has completed draft human health and ecological risk assessments, including a screening-level listed species assessment, for all flufenacet uses. EPA acknowledges that further refinements to the listed species assessment will be completed in future revisions and requests public comment on specific areas that will reduce the
uncertainties associated with the characterization of risk to listed species
identified in the current assessment. Flurprimidol. Draft Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessments (EPA– HQ–OPP–2009–0630). Flurprimidol is a plant growth regulator belonging to the pyrimidine class. It is registered for use on golf courses and ornamental turf; for landscape/woody ornamental plants and ornamental trees; and for ornamental plants grown in containers in nurseries, greenhouses, and
shadehouses. EPA conducted a comprehensive human health risk assessment and did not identify any risks of concern for dietary, residential, or occupational exposures. EPA also conducted a screening level ecological risk assessment that addressed only the tree injection use of flurprimidol. Potential risks to birds, mammals, and plants were identified. All other uses of flurprimidol were addressed in a 2010 ecological risk assessment, which is posted to the registration review docket. An endangered species assessment has not been completed for flurprimidol at
this time.

Propoxur. Draft Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessments (EPA–HQ– OPP–2009–0806). Propoxur is a carbamate insecticide registered for use by pest control operators to kill a variety of insects including crickets, ants, cockroaches, and silverfish. It is registered for use in and around residential, industrial, institutional, and commercial facilities (including food handling establishments and food processing plants). EPA has completed draft human health and ecological risk assessments, including a screening-level listed species assessment for all propoxur uses. EPA acknowledges that


### 39109 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 130 / Wednesday, July 8, 2015 / Notices

further refinements to the listed species assessment will be completed in future revisions and requests public comment on specific areas that will reduce the
uncertainties associated with the characterization of risk to listed species
identified in the current assessment.

Sodium acifluorfen. Draft Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessments (EPA–HQ–OPP–2010–0135). Sodium acifluorfen is a post-emergent herbicide registered for use on peanuts, soybeans, strawberries, and rice. EPA has completed draft human health and ecological risk assessments for all
sodium acifluorfen uses. There are no anticipated human health risks of concern. The draft ecological risk
assessment indicates that there is direct risk of adverse effects to non-target organisms, including fish, birds, and mammals, and species for which these taxa serve as surrogates, and non-target terrestrial plants. The assessment did not find risks of concern for aquatic plants.

Thidiazuron. Combined Docket Opening and Release of Draft Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessments (EPA–HQ–OPP–2015–0381). Thidiazuron is a plant growth regulator registered for use as a defoliant on cotton. There are no non-agricultural uses of thidiazuron. EPA has completed a combined problem formulation/ preliminary ecological risk assessment and combined scoping document/ preliminary human health risk
assessment for thidiazuron. No human
health risks of concern were identified. The ecological risk assessment indicated potential risks of concern to birds, terrestrial-phase amphibians, reptiles, and terrestrial plants. The Agency did not complete an endangered species risk

assessment.

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.53(c), EPA is providing an opportunity, through this notice of availability, for interested parties to provide comments and input concerning the Agency’s draft human health and ecological risk assessments for these pesticides. Such comments could address, among other things, the Agency’s risk assessment methodologies and assumptions, as applied to these draft risk assessments. The Agency will consider all comments received during the public comment period and make changes, as appropriate, to the draft human health and ecological risk assessments. EPA may then issue revised risk assessments, explain any changes to the draft risk assessments, and respond to comments. In the Federal Register notice announcing the availability of any such revised risk assessments for these pesticides, if the
revised risk assessments indicate risks of concern, the Agency may provide a comment period for the public to submit suggestions for mitigating the risks
identified in the revised risk assessments before developing a proposed registration review decision on the affected pesticide.
