74004 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 239 / Wednesday, December 12, 2012 / Notices 

EPA pursuant to FIFRA requires the 

submission of efficacy data for 

fungicides. EPA also requires the 

submission of efficacy data when any 

specific species of fungus is listed on 

the label of fungicides, or when 

‘‘residual’’ or ‘‘prevention’’ claims are 

made for fungicides. For fungistats, 

registrants must conduct efficacy 

studies but are not required under 40 

CFR part 161 to submit them to EPA 

except upon request. 

This guidance, once final, will also 

describe appropriate label language for 

fungicides and fungistats, and for 

products used for mold remediation, on 

nonporous and porous surfaces, for 

residual activity, for mold prevention, 

and in heating, ventilation, air 

conditioning and refrigeration systems. 

All of these recommended label changes 

are designed to improve protection of 

public health through proper use of 

mold-related pesticides. 

III. Do PR notices contain binding 

requirements? 

The PR Notice discussed in this 

notice is intended to provide guidance 

to EPA personnel and decisionmakers 

and to pesticide registrants. While the 

requirements in the statutes and Agency 

regulations are binding on EPA and the 

applicants, this PR Notice is not binding 

on either EPA or pesticide registrants, 

and EPA may depart from the guidance 

where circumstances warrant and 

without prior notice. Likewise, pesticide 

registrants may assert that the guidance 

is not appropriate generally or not 

applicable to a specific pesticide or 

situation. 

Authority: Sections 2 through 34 of FIFRA 

(7 U.S.C. 136–136y).

least five business days prior to the 

beginning of this meeting. If you submit 

comments after this date, those 

comments will be provided to the Board 

members, but you should recognize that 

the HSRB members may not have 

adequate time to consider those 

comments prior to making a decision. 

Thus, if you plan to submit written 

comments, the agency strongly 

encourages you to submit such 

comments no later than noon, Eastern 

Time, Thursday, January 10, 2013. You 

should submit your comments using the 

instructions in Section I., under 

subsection C., ‘‘What Should I Consider 

as I Prepare My Comments for the 

EPA?’’ In addition, the agency also 

requests that persons submitting 

comments directly to the docket also

E. Background 

The HSRB is a Federal advisory 

committee operating in accordance with 

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 5 

U.S.C. App.2 § 9. The HSRB provides 

advice, information, and 

recommendations to the EPA on issues 

related to scientific and ethical aspects 

of human subjects research. The major 

objectives of the HSRB are to provide 

advice and recommendations on: (1) 

Research proposals and protocols; (2) 

reports of completed research with 

human subjects; and (3) how to 

strengthen EPA’s programs for 

protection of human subjects of 

research. The HSRB reports to the EPA 

Administrator through the Agency’s 

Science Advisor. 

1. Topic for discussion. At its meeting 

on January 17, 2013, EPA’s Human 

Studies Review Board will consider 

scientific and ethical issues surrounding 

this topic: 

a. A completed study report from the 

Antimicrobial Exposure Assessment 

Task Force II (AEATF) in which the 

dermal and inhalation exposure of 

professional janitorial workers was 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with 

74006 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 239 / Wednesday, December 12, 2012 / Notices 

monitored as they poured liquid 

antimicrobial pesticide products from 

conventional or reduced-splash 

containers into different sizes and types 

of source containers. EPA seeks the 

advice of the HSRB on the scientific 

soundness of this completed research 

and on its appropriateness for use in 

estimating exposure that results from 

pouring liquid antimicrobial pesticide 

products. EPA also seeks the advice of 

the HSRB on whether available 

information supports a determination 

that the study was conducted in 

substantial compliance with subparts K 

and L of 40 CFR Part 26. 

2. Meeting minutes and reports. 

Minutes of the meeting, summarizing 

the matters discussed and 

recommendations, if any, made by the 

advisory committee regarding such 

matters, will be released within 90 

calendar days of the meeting. Such 

minutes will be available at http:// 

www.epa.gov/osa/hsrb/ and http:// 

www.regulations.gov. In addition, 

information regarding the Board’s final 

meeting report, will be found at http:// 

www.epa.gov/osa/hsrb/ or from the
