SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Electronic Availability: Electronic copies of this document and the 
Fact Sheet are available from the EPA home page at the Environmental 
Sub-Set entry for this document under ``Regulations'' (<a href="http://

www.epa.gov/fedrgstr/</a>).
    EPA issued a notice, published in the Federal Register of September 
4, 1996 (61 FR 46642; FRL-5391-9), which announced that AgriDyne 
Technologies, Inc., 2401 S. Foothill Drive, Salt Lake City, UT 84109, 
had submitted applications to register the pesticide products Daza 
Technical and Daza 4.5 WDG (EPA File Symbols 62552-RE and 62552-RU), 
containing the new active ingredient dihydroazadirachtin at 17.5 and 
4.5 percent respectively, an active ingredient not included in any 
previously registered products.
    The applications for Daza Technical and Daza 4.5 WDG were later 
transferred to Thermo Trilogy, Inc., 1500 Grace Drive, Columbia, MD 
21044-4098. The products were designated new EPA File Symbols (70051-RE 
and 70051-RU), containing the same active ingredient 
dihydroazadirachtin at 17.5 and 4.5 percent respectively. 
    The applications were approved on June 11, 1997 and June 23, 1997, 
respectively, as Daza Technical for manufacturing use only (EPA 
Registration Number 70051-29) and Daza 4.5 WDG for indoor and outdoor 
use in ornamentals, turf, agronomic and horticultural crops (EPA 
Registration Number 70051-31). 
    The Agency has considered all required data on risks associated 
with the proposed use of dihydroazadirachtin, and information on 
social, economic, and environmental benefits to be derived from use. 
Specifically, the Agency has considered the nature of the chemical and 
its pattern of use, application methods and rates, and level and extent 
of potential exposure. Based on these reviews, the Agency was able to 
make basic health and safety determinations which show that use of 
dihydroazadirachtin when used in accordance with widespread and 
commonly recognized practice, will not generally cause unreasonable 
adverse effects to the environment.
    More detailed information on these registrations is contained in an 
EPA Pesticide Fact Sheet on dihydroazadirachtin.
    A copy of this fact sheet, which provides a summary description of 
the pesticides, use patterns and formulations, science findings, and 
the Agency's regulatory position and rationale, may be obtained from 
the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), 5285 Port Royal 
Road, Springfield, VA 22161.
    In accordance with section 3(c)(2) of FIFRA, a copy of the approved 
label, the list of data references, the data and other scientific 
information used to support registration, except for material 
specifically protected by section 10 of FIFRA, are available for public 
inspection in the Public Information and Records Integrity Branch, 
Information Resources and Services Division (7506C), Office of 
Pesticide Programs, Environmental Protection Agency, Rm. 1132, CM #2,
