Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 124 / Wednesday, June 27, 2012 / Notices 38285 

under FIFRA (7 U.S.C. 136) for pesticide 

registration, pursuant to 40 CFR part 

158. Test guideline studies may also be 

useful for satisfying FIFRA data 

requirements either in data call-ins 

issued pursuant to FIFRA section 

3(c)(2)(B) or as needed to satisfy data 

requirements appropriate for specific 

pesticide registration applications, or for 

satisfying data requirements to 

demonstrate the safety of a tolerance or 

tolerance exemption under FFDCA 

section 408 (21 U.S.C. 346a). 

Test guidelines used in regulatory 

actions as the basis for test standards 

under TSCA (15 U.S.C. 2601) are 

typically promulgated in 40 CFR part 

799. They may also be written into 

specific TSCA rules such as TSCA 

section 4 test rules or consent orders or 

they may be used as recommended test 

guidelines as part of voluntary testing. 

Note that where data will be required 

under a TSCA rule, such as a test rule 

under TSCA section 4, a TSCA-specific 

version of the applicable test guideline 

may be promulgated as a rule. Examples 

of specific chemical test rules and 

consent orders may be found in 40 CFR 

part 799, subparts B and C. 

The availability of public draft test 

guidelines for public comment was 

announced in a March 4, 1996 Federal 

Register notice. The public draft test 

guidelines were placed in the EPA 

Docket for public access. These public 

draft test guidelines were also submitted 

by EPA to FIFRA SAP on May 29, 1996, 

for peer review and was announced in 

a May 1, 1996 Federal Register notice. 

These final test guidelines incorporate 

changes recommended by FIFRA SAP 

and other changes resulting from the 

public comments received in response 

to the 1996 public draft test guidelines. 

The majority of comments and changes 

dealt with the organizational structure 

of the test guideline groups, consistency 

of organization and format across the 

ecological effects guidelines, addition of 

tables summarizing test conditions, 

addition of tables summarizing test 

validity elements, consistency in use of 

terminology, and updating of references. 

The reporting section of each test 

guideline now provides a list of study 

specific information to include in a 

study report based on study reporting 

requirements specified in 40 CFR 

160.185 for FIFRA and 40 CFR 792.185 

for TSCA.
