Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 99 / Wednesday, May 23, 2007 / Notices 28971 

conducting these programs, EPA is 

tailoring its public participation process 

to be commensurate with the level of 

risk, extent of use, complexity of issues, 

and degree of public concern associated 

with each pesticide. Due to its uses, 

risks, and other factors, rotenone was 

reviewed through the modified 4-Phase 

process. Through this process, EPA 

worked extensively with stakeholders 

and the public to reach the regulatory 

decisions for rotenone. 

The reregistration program is being 

conducted under Congressionally 

mandated time frames, and EPA 

recognizes the need both to make timely 

decisions and to involve the public. The 

Agency is issuing the rotenone RED for 

public comment. This comment period 

is intended to provide an additional 

opportunity for public input and a 

mechanism for initiating any necessary 

amendments to the RED. All comments 

should be submitted using the methods 

in ADDRESSES, and must be received by 

EPA on or before the closing date. These 

comments will become part of the 

Agency Docket for rotenone. Comments 

received after the close of the comment 

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

required to consider these late 

comments. 

The Agency will carefully consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and will provide a Response to 

Comments Memorandum in the Docket 

and regulations.gov. If any comment 

significantly affects the document, EPA 

also will publish an amendment to the 

RED in the Federal Register. In the 

absence of substantive comments 

requiring changes, the rotenone RED 

will be implemented as it is now 

presented. 

B. What is the Agency’s Authority for 

Taking this Action? 

Section 4(g)(2) of FIFRA as amended 

directs that, after submission of all data 

concerning a pesticide active ingredient, 

the Administrator shall determine 

whether pesticides containing such 

active ingredient are eligible for 

reregistration, before calling in product 

specific data on individual end-use 

products and either reregistering 

products or taking other ‘‘appropriate 

regulatory action.’’
