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.

    Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.

    Dated: October 22, 2024.

Director, Pesticide Re-Evaluation Division, Office of Pesticide 
Programs.
