SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

(http://www.epa.gov/fedrgstr/).

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
