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 pesticides discussed in this document, compared to the general population. II. What Action is the Agency Taking?

EPA is announcing receipt of a pesticide petition filed under section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21 U.S.C. 346a, proposing the establishment of regulations in 40 CFR part 174 or part 180 for residues of pesticide chemicals in or on various food commodities. EPA has determined that the pesticide petition described in this notice contains data or information prescribed in FFDCA section 408(d)(2); however, EPA has not fully evaluated the sufficiency of the submitted data at this time or whether the data supports granting of the pesticide petition. Additional data may be needed before EPA can make a final determination on this pesticide petition.

Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of the petition that is the subject of this notice, prepared by the petitioner, is included in a docket EPA has created for this rulemaking. Thedocket for this petition is available online at http://www.regulations.gov

.

As specified in FFDCA section 408(d)(3), (21 U.S.C. 346a(d)(3)), EPA is publishing notice of the petition so that the public has an opportunity to comment on this request for the establishment or modification of regulations for residues of pesticides in or on food commodities. Further information on the petition may be obtained through the petition summary referenced in this unit.

PP 8F7360 . E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, P.O. Box 80402, Wilmington, DE 19880–0402, proposes to establish an exemption from the requirement of a tolerance for residues of the antimicrobial, potassium peroxymonosulfate, in or on poultry; eggs, meat, fat and meat byproducts; swine; meat, fat, and meat byproducts. The petitioner believes no analytical method is needed because potassium peroxymonosulfate is a strong oxidizing agent that is short lived in, or, on treated surfaces and livestock which rapidly reduces to endogenous sulfate ions. Any residues of the sulfate ions that may result would not be distinguishable from background levels because they are ubiquitous inorganic ions common to all living systems. List of Subjects
