Procedures for Providing Public Input: 

Public comment for consideration by 

EPA’s federal advisory committees and 

panels has a different purpose from 

public comment provided to EPA 

program offices. Therefore, the process 

for submitting comments to a federal 

advisory committee is different from the 

process used to submit comments to an 

EPA program office. 

Federal advisory committees and 

panels, including scientific advisory 

committees, provide independent 

advice to EPA. Members of the public 

can submit comments for a federal 

advisory committee to consider as it 

develops advice for EPA. They should 

send their comments directly to the 

Designated Federal Officer for the 

relevant advisory committee. Oral 

Statements: In general, individuals or 

groups requesting an oral presentation 

at a public meeting will be limited to 

five minutes per speaker. To be placed 

on the public speaker list for the July 

26–27, 2010 meeting, interested parties 

should notify Dr. Holly Stallworth, 

DFO, by e-mail no later than July 20, 

2010. Individuals making oral 

statements will be limited to five 

minutes per speaker. Written 

Statements: Written statements for the 

July 26–27, 2010 meeting should be 

received in the SAB Staff Office by July 

20, 2010, so that the information may be 

made available to the CASAC Panel for 

its consideration prior to this meeting. 

Written statements should be supplied 

to the DFO in the following formats: 

One hard copy with original signature 

and one electronic copy via e-mail 

(acceptable file format: Adobe Acrobat 

PDF, MS Word, WordPerfect, MS 

PowerPoint, or Rich Text files in IBM– 

PC/Windows 98/2000/XP format). 

Submitters are asked to provide versions 

of each document submitted with and 

without signatures, because the SAB 

Staff Office does not publish documents 

with signatures on its Web sites. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Dr. 

Stallworth at the phone number or email address noted above, preferably at 

least ten days prior to the meeting to 

give EPA as much time as possible to 

process your request. 

Dated: May 28, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Does this Action Apply to Me? 

You may be potentially affected by 

this action if you are an agricultural 

producer, food manufacturer, or 

pesticide manufacturer. Potentially 

affected entities may include, but are 

not limited to: 

• Crop production (NAICS code 

111). 

• Animal production (NAICS code 

112). 

• Food manufacturing (NAICS code 

311). 

• Pesticide manufacturing (NAICS 

code 32532). 

This listing is not intended to be 

exhaustive, but rather provides a guide 

for readers regarding entities likely to be 

affected by this action. Other types of 

entities not listed in this unit could also 

be affected. The North American 

Industrial Classification System 

(NAICS) codes have been provided to 

assist you and others in determining 

whether this action might apply to 

certain entities. If you have any 

questions regarding the applicability of 

this action to a particular entity, consult 

the person listed under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT. 

B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare 

My Comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

www.regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly 

mark the part or all of the information 

that you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD-ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD-ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD-ROM the specific information that is 

claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

i. Identify the document by docket ID 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

ii. Follow directions. The Agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

iv. Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

v. If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

vi. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns and suggest 

alternatives. 

vii. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

viii. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

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 pesticide(s) 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What Action is the Agency Taking? 

Under section 18 of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA) (7 U.S.C. 136p), at the 

discretion of the Administrator, a 

Federal or State agency may be 

exempted from any provision of FIFRA 

if the Administrator determines that 

emergency conditions exist which 

require the exemption. The Wyoming 

Department of Agriculture has requested 

the Administrator to issue a specific 

exemption for the use of diflubenzuron 

on alfalfa to control grasshoppers and 

Mormon Crickets. Information in 

accordance with 40 CFR part 166 was 

submitted as part of this request. 

As part of this request, the applicant 

asserts that projected population levels 

for these damaging insect pests are 

higher than normal for the 2010 season. 

The applicant claims that registered 

alternatives will not provide adequate 

control to avert significant economic 

losses from occurring. 

The Applicant proposes to make no 

more than two applications of 

diflubenzuron, at a rate of 0.032 lbs. 

active ingredient (a.i.) (equivalent to 2 

fl. oz. of product containing 2 lbs. a.i. 

per gallon). Application could be made 

on up to 26,000 acres of alfalfa, from the 

date of approval, if granted, until 

October 31, 2010, in the State of 

Wyoming. If the maximum proposed 

acreage were treated at the maximum 

rate, a total of 814 lbs. active ingredient 

(407 gallons formulated product) could 

be applied. 

This notice does not constitute a 

decision by EPA on the application 

itself. The regulations governing section 

18 of FIFRA require publication of a 

notice of receipt of an application for a 

specific exemption proposing a use 

which is supported by the IR–4 program 

and has been requested in 5 or more 

previous years, and a petition for 

tolerance has not yet been submitted to 

the Agency. 

The notice provides an opportunity 

for public comment on the application. 

The Agency will review and consider 

all comments received during the 

comment period in determining 

whether to issue the specific exemption
