Case Number 4022 ............................................

This notice also announces the 

closure of the registration review case 

for Metschnikowia fructicola strain 

NRRL Y–27328 (Case Number 6531) 

because the last U.S. registrations for 

these pesticides have been canceled. 

There is no docket number established 

for this registration review case as all 

products were cancelled in Case 6531 

before the registration review 

assessments were initiated. 

II. Background 

EPA is conducting its registration 

review of the chemical listed in Table 1 

of Unit I pursuant to the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA) section 3(g) (7 U.S.C. 

136a(g)) and the Procedural Regulations 

for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 

155, subpart C. FIFRA section 3(g) 

provides, among other things, that 

pesticide registrations are to be 

reviewed every 15 years. Consistent 

with 40 CFR 155.57, in its final 

registration review decision, EPA will 

ultimately determine whether a 

pesticide continues to meet the 

registration standard in FIFRA section 

3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). As part of 

the registration review process, the 

Agency has completed interim or final 

registration review decisions for the 

pesticide in Table 1 of Unit I. 

Prior to completing the interim 

registration review decision in Table 1 

of Unit I, EPA posted the proposed 

interim decision for the chemical and 

invited the public to submit any 

comments or new information, 

consistent with 40 CFR 155.58(a). EPA 

considered and responded to any 

comments or information received 

during these public comment periods in 

the respective interim decision or final 

registration review decisions.

registration review program, see: https://

II. Background 

EPA is conducting its registration 

review of the chemicals listed in Table 

1 of Unit I pursuant to the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA) section 3(g) (7 U.S.C. 

136a(g)) and the Procedural Regulations 

for Registration Review at 40 CFR part 

155, subpart C. FIFRA section 3(g) 

provides, among other things, that 

pesticide registrations are to be 

reviewed every 15 years. Consistent 

with 40 CFR 155.57, in its final 

registration review decision, EPA will 

ultimately determine whether a 

pesticide continues to meet the 

registration standard in FIFRA section 

3(c)(5) (7 U.S.C. 136a(c)(5)). 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.50, EPA 

initiates a registration review by 

establishing a public docket for a 

pesticide registration review case. 

Registration review dockets contain 

information that will assist the public in 

understanding the types of information 

and issues that the Agency has consider 

during registration review. Consistent 

with 40 CFR 155.50(a), these dockets 

may include information from the 

Agency’s files including, but not limited 

to, an overview of the registration 

review case status, a list of current 

product registrations and registrants, 

any Federal Register notices regarding 

any pending registration actions, any 

Federal Register notices regarding 

current or pending tolerances, risk 

assessments, bibliographies concerning 

current registrations, summaries of 

incident data, and any other pertinent 

data or information. EPA includes in 

these dockets a Preliminary Work Plan 

(PWP), and in some cases a continuing 

work plan (CWP), summarizing 

information EPA has on the pesticide 

and the anticipated path forward. 

Consistent with 40 CFR 155.50(b), 

EPA provides for at least a 60-day 

public comment period on work plans 

and registration review dockets. This 

comment period is intended to provide 

an opportunity for public input and a 

mechanism for initiating any necessary 

changes to a pesticide’s workplan. 

During this public comment period, the 

Agency is asking that interested persons 

identify any additional information they 

believe the agency should consider 

during the registration reviews of these 

pesticides. The Agency identifies in 

each docket the areas where public 

comment is specifically requested, 

though comment in any area is 

welcome. 

For additional background on the 

registration review program, see: https:// 

www.epa.gov/pesticide-reevaluation. 

III. What should I consider as I prepare 

a comment for EPA? 

This notice is directed to the public 

in general and may be of interest to a 

wide range of stakeholders including 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 208 / Monday, October 28, 2024 / Notices 85533 

environmental, human health, farm 

worker, and agricultural advocates; the 

chemical industry; pesticide users; and 

members of the public interested in the 

sale, distribution, or use of pesticides. 

Since others also may be interested, the 

Agency has not attempted to describe all 

the specific entities that may be affected 

by this action. If you have any questions 

regarding the applicability of this action 

to a particular entity, consult the 

Chemical Review Manager identified in 

Table 1 of Unit I. In submitting a 

comment to EPA, please consider the 

following: 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to the EPA through 

regulations.gov or email. 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 the 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 preparing and submitting your 

comments, see the commenting tips at 

https://www.epa.gov/dockets/ 

commenting-epa-dockets. 

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. 

All comments should be submitted 

using the methods in ADDRESSES and 

must be received by the EPA on or 

before the closing date. These comments 

will become part of the docket for the 

pesticides included in Table 1 of Unit 

I. The Agency will consider all 

comments received by the closing date 

and may respond to comments in a 

‘‘Response to Comments Memorandum’’ 

in the docket or the Final Work Plan 

(FWP), as appropriate.
