SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this action apply to me? 

You may be potentially affected by 

this action if you are an agricultural 

producer, food manufacturer, or 

pesticide manufacturer. The following 

list of North American Industrial 

Classification System (NAICS) codes is 

not intended to be exhaustive, but rather 

provides a guide to help readers 

determine whether this document 

applies to them. Potentially affected 

entities may include: 

• Crop production (NAICS code 111). 

• Animal production (NAICS code 

112). 

• Food manufacturing (NAICS code 

311). 

• Pesticide manufacturing (NAICS 

code 32532). 

B. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

regulations.gov or email. Clearly mark 

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

http://www.epa.gov/dockets/

comments.html. 

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to 

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. 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 pesticide 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

Under section 18 of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C. 

136p, at the discretion of the EPA 

Administrator, a federal or state agency 

may be exempted from any provision of 

FIFRA if the EPA Administrator 

determines that emergency conditions 

exist which require the exemption. The 

Idaho, Indiana, Michigan, Oregon, 

Washington, and Wisconsin 

Departments of Agriculture have 

requested the EPA Administrator to 

issue specific exemptions for the use of 

pyridate on mint (peppermint and 

spearmint) to control redroot pigweed 

and kochia. Information in accordance 

with 40 CFR part 166 was submitted as 

part of this request. The applicants’ 

submissions which provide an 

explanation of the need for the 

exemption as well as the proposed use 

pattern can be found at http://

www.regulations.gov in their section 18 

emergency exemption application 

requests for use of pyridate on mint to 

control redroot pigweeds and kochia. 

This notice does not constitute a 

decision by EPA on the applications 

themselves. The regulations governing 

FIFRA section 18 require publication of 

a notice of receipt of an application for 

specific exemptions proposing use of a 

pesticide that was voluntarily canceled 

in 2004, and which is now considered 

to be unregistered under the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA). 

This notice provides an opportunity 

for public comment on the six 

applications. The Agency, will review 

and consider all comments received 

during the comment period in 

determining whether to issue specific 

exemptions requested by the Idaho, 

Indiana, Michigan, Oregon, Washington, 

and Wisconsin Departments of 

Agriculture.
