intended function without unreasonable 

adverse effects on human health or the 

environment. Registration review 

dockets contain information that will 

assist the public in understanding the 

types of information and issues that the 

agency may consider during registration 

reviews. As part of the registration 

review process, the Agency has 

completed preliminary workplans for all 

pesticides listed in Table 1 in Unit IV. 

EPA initiates a registration review by 

establishing a public docket for a 

pesticide registration review case. The 

docket contains a Preliminary Work 

Plan (PWP) summarizing information 

EPA has on the pesticide and the 

anticipated path forward. Through this 

program, the EPA is ensuring that each 

pesticide’s registration is based on 

current scientific and other knowledge, 

including its effects on human health 

and the environment. 

III. Authority 

The EPA is conducting its registration 

review of the chemicals listed in Table 

1 in Unit IV 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 a human 

dietary risk from residues that result 

from the use of a pesticide in or on food. 

IV. Registration Reviews 

A. What action is the agency taking? 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.50, this notice 

announces the availability of the EPA’s 

preliminary work plans for the 

pesticides shown in Table 1 and opens 

a 60-day public comment period on the 

work plans.

B. Docket Content 

The registration review docket 

contains information that the agency 

may consider in the course of the 

registration review. The agency may 

include information from its files 

including, but not limited to, the 

following information: 

• An overview of the registration review 

case status. 

• A list of current product registrations 

and registrants. 

• Federal Register notices regarding 

any pending registration actions. 

• Federal Register notices regarding 

current or pending tolerances. 

• Risk assessments. 

• Bibliographies concerning current 

registrations. 

• Summaries of incident data. 

• Any other pertinent data or 

information. 

Each docket contains a document 

summarizing what the agency currently 

knows about the pesticide case and a 

preliminary work plan for anticipated 

data and assessment needs. Additional 

documents provide more detailed 

information. During this public 

comment period, the agency is asking 

that interested persons identify any 

additional information they believe the 

agency should consider during the 

registration reviews of these pesticides. 

The agency identifies in each docket the 

areas where public comment is 

specifically requested, though comment 

in any area is welcome. 

The registration review final rule at 40 

CFR 155.50(b) provides for a minimum 

60-day public comment period on all 

preliminary registration review work 

plans. This comment period is intended 

to provide an opportunity for public 

input and a mechanism for initiating 

any necessary changes to a pesticide’s 

workplan. All comments should be 

submitted using the methods in 

ADDRESSES and must be received by the 

EPA on or before the closing date. These 

comments will become part of the 

docket for the pesticides included in 

Table 1 in Unit IV. Comments received 

after the close of the comment period 

will be marked ‘‘late.’’ The EPA is not 

required to consider these late 

comments. 

The agency will carefully consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and may provide a ‘‘Response to 

Comments Memorandum’’ in the 

docket. The final registration review 

work plan will explain the effect that 

any comments had on the final work 

plan and provide the agency’s response 

to significant comments.

program is provided at: https://
